This is James Artis' (sp?) well equiped, nicely put together, and downright sexy looking 700! If I didn't know better, I'd say it probably even has an automatic nose picker! It's simply outstanding! It gets my vote!

Ok - I have trike envy - you have my vote.
What is all that $hit? Looks like a 007 agent trike! |

Where's the trike? I recognize the back half, but the forward cockpit seems robotic. But Jim seems to be a traditionalist underneath all that technology,
as evidenced by the rubber band parking brake. Now that I recognize.
Just to let you know, after seeing Jim's 700, I too queried Garrie Hill on the cost of 406 wheel covers. Jim is a rolling advertisement for these discs. |

From a minimalist perspective... Silk isn't even in the running. Classy, flamboyent, gadgetee... maybe... sexy, no.

The trike that Batman and Darth Vader would have built.

I'm saving my pennies to get some wheel covers like that. Spokes are such a powerful visual idiom for "bike". Those discs make the trike into a
transcendant piece of extended phenotype. Elso is right about the "rolling advertisement"; I emailed Garrie to get a price for discs for my Exp.
Yeah, this trike is pretty cool. Sexy no, but definitely the most evil of all. Is that a solar panel at the front (near the deraileur)?

I want to know if that is a nitro tube running aft as well as knowing what all the gear is and
how it attaches to the trike. thanks for a blog or site reference. |

Are those turn indicators at the shoulders or just lights?
If not, does anyone know where I can find some? |

Thanks for the info! Cool trike, a bit overloaded with stuff for my taste but it's interesting what people come up with.
Does anyone know where I can get flashing turn indicators, these should be standard equipment so I don't have to use hand signals.
