FS: TerraTrike 3.4 w/upgrades

Scott said:

We've got a TerraTrike 3.4 (I think) for sale. I always get the model
numbers confused. This is the bright yellow model with the very nice,
black aero rims. The trike only has a few hundred miles on it and is
in very clean condition. My wife doesn't ride it much, and we need the
$. Besides the rims, this trike has upgraded XT rear dr. and XT
mega-range cassette (11--34) and Truvative 165mm cranks (Isis hollow,
splined BB) with a big 55t. ring for better top-end speed. It also
comes with Avid brake levers, rear view mirror, flag, Trek rear rack,
and PowerGrips pedals--a nice option for people starting out with a
high BB trike. This trike comes with the SHORT boom for shorter
riders--approx. 39--43in. x-seam. My wife is 5'3". There is certainly
room to move the boom out and the seat back some. The only blemishes
on the bike are a paint flaw on one of the front cross members and
some abrasion on one edge of the seat mesh. As you can see from the
photos below, this trike is in great shape. We paid over $2,300 new
before upgrades and accessories. Asking $1400 + shipping.

We live in the southern part of the Sierras in California. We are
within a few hours of areas like Los Angeles, Fresno, Santa Barbara,
Las Vegas, so meeting half-way or having someone come out for a ride
is certainly an option. We could even deliver to some areas depending
on specific location and circumstances. Otherwise, shipping is in
order, which will be handled by a local bike shop and should run about
$50 or so.

I would confirm the shipping cost, so you will not get unpleasantly
surprised. $50 is normal for shipping a bicycle, not a trike that will
likely be too large to obtain normal rates.

For what it is worth, I drove about 900 miles round trip in one day to
save on shipping costs for a trike.

I'm not very familiar with your bike, can the boom be replaced with
a longer one?

Jus a FYI, but the factory charges $99.00 to ship one.

Wow, used to be $50. Since it will, once knocked down, fit into a
single box, I may be able to ship for a bit less. I recently had an
XL Tour Easy packed and shipped for about $80--to Florida.

Cheers,

Scott

Yes, WW can produce a new, longer boom, but I think it's pretty
expensive. You should check with them.

Then I guess I'll need to know exactly which model you have so I
can ask for the correct one.

Curious that this is posted in response to my posting, as the only trike
I own is an Earth Cycles Dragonflyer [TM] that is NOT FOR SALE.

Ah, I got my question answered, yes, the boom can be replaced, as this
note from the factory suggests:

Quoted message said:

Replacement booms are $299 if in stock, or $450 if I have to manufacture
one.

Lead time for a manufactured boom would be 8-10 weeks.

However, with that info, I'm no longer interested in your trike, sorry. Good
luck selling it!
