Rotator Pursuit

[Bob]

Has anyone tried putting some tour easy handlebars on the pursuit? I am looking for something to
help with the low speed handling. When the wind is really blowing when I go home from work, it can
really be a handful. Any ideas? I have a 98 pursuit. Thanks.....Bob

I strongly urge you to contact Steve Delaire of Rotator http://www.rotatorrecumbent.com . Personaly, I doubt a bar change will help much given the steep head tube angle.

1998 was before Rotator made the lower speed fork for the Pursuits. In 2000 they produced a fork
that reduced the amount of steering trail and improved low speed handling. Many people preferred it
over the high speed fork that was probably a better choice for someone running a front fairing and
spending more time at higher speeds. The newer fork design could probably be purchased from Rotator.

How long have you had your Pursuit? Some people find they have a little slower learning curve than
some other bikes. But once you have gotten familiar with the bike, there's nothing like it.

I have never ridden a Pursuit but you might contact Calhoun Cycle. They offer a series of Evolution Bars that may help if you could use them.
