Thoughts on the Sun EZ Tad SX 07/12/2013 VIEW POST Most people think you need to spend a lot of money in order to get a reliable, comfortable, and fun trike. I’m going to tell you about a trike that dismisses this myth. I’m Talking about the Sun EZ Tad SX trike. This trike combines value, comfort, and durability to give you years of enjoyable riding. Comfort. The first thing you will notice is the combination of a gel bottom and a mesh seat back. This provide a very comfortable ride, with exceptional bump absorption from seams, and bumps in the road. The mesh back will help keep your back cool, with very good airflow, and an adjustable angle to allow for fine tuning depending on rider preferences. The seat position on the frame is adjustable as well, to allow for fine tuning of the leg length, or adjust between different riders or getting your perfect leg length. The adjustment is simple, with just two quick release levers which then allow the seat to move along the frame. Two quick releases and ample surface area ensure the seat doesn’t not move, even when the levers are relatively loose. Adjustability. Comfort, and adjustability correlate in many ways, and the Sun EZ Tad has an incredible amount of adjustability, not only in seat angle, and position, but also in handlebar position. Seat angle adjustment is handled by a seat of pins, that lock securely in place by sprung levers, so you never have to worry about them falling out, or losing them. Seat position is adjusted by two quick release levers under the front and rear of the seat. The frame is protected by a set of adhesive plastic strips that allow you to move the seat endlessly without scraping the paint off the frame. The handlebars have angle, height, and distance adjustment, giving you total control over your controls. Value. Trikes, and bikes alike are often judge by the number of speeds they have, but what it comes down to is quality of components and build quality. While the Sun EZ Tad is a respectable 24 speed drivetrain, it uses a simple but proven derailleur system, giving the rider enough gear range to cruise at near 20 miles per hour, and climb what normally be pretty daunting hills. The disk brakes are pretty strong, and will easily regulate your speed coming down any hill. Combined with locking levers to aid in mounting, and dismounting, this trike does not leave you wanting in the realm of convenience. Quality. The Sun EZ Tad is a great quality trike. The finish of the paint is top notch, and shines like a trike twice the price. Touch up paint is included for the stock color, but of course a more durable custom powder coating is available through Utah Trikes. Underneath the paint is a durable Chromoly steel frame, which is re-enforced, and triangulated in the rear end for a strong, yet forgiving ride. Sun has been building trikes for a long time, and it shows by their use of common, yet reliable cartridge bearing headset, for a long lasting, and inexpensive/easy to repair part if they should ever fail. As was mentioned before this trike uses a derailleur system, that does require periodic adjustment, and regular maintenance, but is as reliable as that old pickup you’ve had since high school. Rideability. Rideability can depend on a few things, or the whole trike as a package, and this trike really does give you everything you need to have an enjoyable time out on the paths and around the neighborhood. The seat is easy to get on and off of, and the controls are adjustable to help the trike fit you. This increases the fun factor, as you can focus more on enjoying the ride, rather than uncomfy controls much in the same way the ease in seat adjustment helps fit the trike your preferences. Considerations. There are many many trikes on the market, and every company wants to tell you why their trike is better. Sun has been producing trikes for a long time, and doesn’t rely on flashy advertising. They rely on good quality, budget oriented trikes with an emphasis, on comfort, and rideability. While you won’t win any races with this trike, you will be able to rediscover cycling in a fun, comfortable, and stable fashion, without breaking the bank.
