I purchased a Thor seat for my S30 (original, fully-suspended). I'm thinking of mounting it with screws at the wings designed for mounting the original seat, then using Velcro at the point that the Thor makes contact with the frame (up closer to the top of the frame) and also using a tie wrap at...

Rick, how did you attach the Ventisit material to the ABS? -Cliff

Thanks. I don't know how you found those. I looked at every tab on their website.

I think the fork mounts are 51mm international standard:

Mine looks like Traditional. The packing slip says post mount. No brackets came with it. I think adapters are extra.

Hmm. Does that mean that the TRP brakes are incompatible Sofrider? Or is there another TRP brake that will fit?

I ordered the TRP Spyre brake. But the mounting holes on the fork are 90 deg from what the brake accepts. Is there a standard adapter to accommodate the 90 deg? -Cliff

It's a good point. If we're climbing a grade so steep that wheel slippage is an issue, we should be thinking about issues with descending that grade, too.

Are you saying that recumbents lean more because they corner faster? I'm pretty sure that DFs and recumbents of equal weight going around a curve at the same speed lean at the same angle. -Cliff

Bob, yes the fork has disc brake mounts. Are all mounts the same size/spacing? Thanks for the advice. I sent Benny a note this evening.

I want to get a drive wheel for our Sofrider that will take a disc brake. Any recommendations? Also would appreciate recommendation for disc and brake. What is on the QX100? -Cliff

:(

Rick, did you attach the abs plate behind the headrest, or in front of it? -Cliff

No, I used two that were already there.

I don't see the combo that Ratz shows on their website. Did I miss it, or is it no longer available?

I put a zip tie there instead of the clamps. The glue of the velcro has partially failed. The zip tie helps keeps the seat aligned and from slapping against the frame when I go over bumps at speed. BTW, the glue is always the issue with velcro, not the hooks and loops. -Cliff

Rick, do you have a photo showing how the plastic adapter to support Bent-Up Aero Bag is installed? -Cliff

I managed to flat my rear tire when I was riding on Marathon Plus. Happened in an industrial area that has a lot of debris on the road. The good news is that I was able to ride on the flat tire for two miles without a problem, and could have gone farther. They are so thick and stiff that they...

Ratz, not rat. Oops.

What about Ninja S-28 adapters for Silvio? Do they exist? -Cliff
