Replacement extension arm
I broke my Trikke…but happily Andy at
SouthBay Trikke Fixed it!
I was trikking here in Costa Mesa on Tuesday and felt the right footpad was bending inwards, uh oh. The handlebar column was mushy too. I got off and looked at the Trikke and it looked like the right pedal was bent outwards. When I got back on, the welded joint up at the front cracked. Ugh! I walked it back to my hotel and made a few calls…fortunately finding Andy at
SouthbayTrikke. I took it over to him yesterday morning and he put a new part on…it’s silver so it sort of looks bionic now, I like it! A battle scar!
He was great, adjusted my brakes, managed to fish out a plug that had come loose in the steering column, got a broken bolt out of the bottle cage hole (thank you bad installation at a local b*ke shop, grr), fixed my Trikke so the front wheel will stay in alignment and….put on one of his groovy cargo nets. So now I’m all fixed up, better than ever, with a new bionic part, cool.
Big thanks to Andy for all the help yesterday, he was great! Now I can enjoy my Trikke in this wonderful California weather.
Thank you for the kind words
Andy
