I don't know how that compares with the ones on your vintage trike.
er I did give my figures, that's the same pressure at back, 3 more psi at the front on the new. But although I run at book figures, I know several people who run a bit more. Loonys definitely should!

Question, what's the front tyre pressure?
Interested as the front tyres are exactly what I run on my vintage trike. Suspect it'll be a pound or two more pressure than I use as the new three wheeler is heavier.
I use 19 psi at the front, and 25 psi at the rear - completely different rear tyre. According to the handbook Martyn, the correct pressures for cold tyres are as follows: Front tyres - 22psi or 1.5bar Rear tyres - 25psi or 1.7bar I don't know how that compares with the ones on your vintage trike. what handbook???? haven't found mine passing by at my dealer on thursday, will ask for a handbook

Must be a pretty small toolkit - not much space to put one

Do you get an emergency tyre repair kit as well? There looks to be just enough room under the "bonnet' for a small tool roll.
Thats suddenly made me think.......are those front tyres tubed?

Tyre repair won't work on tubed tyres, I have tried this on a motorcycle.
