I am designing an upright tricycle, along the basic lines of the Haley http://www.haleytrikes.com/trikes.html

Or the Mercurio
http://www.huskybicycles.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=hb&Product_Code=160-120&Category_Code=ti&Product_Count=7

And was hoping to get some insight into the effect on handling/performance of moving the front steering pivot forward.

Thanks

John

For the Cargo trike to ride correctly, the steering pivot must be in-line with wheel axles.
