The news on my yellow trike is I won't get it until about September according to the seller, by the time I get it the heat will be dying down and cooler weather will be on the way.

My son has one of these and it rides very well. He has balance problems and can't ride a bicycle. He's 6' 1" and 220 lbs. One thing to be aware of (if not already pointed out) there is only a rim caliper brake on the front wheel. Hills aren't a problem in Florida but if you get caught in the rain(not uncommon in Florida) wet rim caliper brakes quickly become no brakes! Enjoy!!
Messed up you're in Arid-zona.....Never Mind.
Sorry to hear about the delayed delivery. When I was doing my tricycle research I ran into supply issues a lot. I found the same problems when trying to buy an aluminum trailer for my big trike a couple months ago.
We are experiencing day time temperatures between 105 and 110. But I still get daily rides in. It's about 3/4 mile to our pool. The water is a welcome relief even after that short ride.

Its paid for, problem is the seller may have had a limited number in inventory and then I came into the queue with asking for solid tires vs regular and 3 speeds vs 1 speed. Yellow may be more popular as it is an 'Industrial' trike rather than consumer grade version. I may ask that they throw in a 'Cup Holder' for the long wait. By the time I get it the hot weather should be winding down in New Mexico and it will be a more pleasant to take it for a 'Spin'. Covid made a mess of the supply chain and giving businesses problems. Bad thing about living in Lovington is there are no bicycle shops in the area or much of anything and so most here rely on mail order.

One of those 100 ships in the harbor,waiting on a berth.
2020 TriGlide Tahitian Teal aka (Hawaiian Hussy). Avon frt & Comfortred rear tires. ProAction frt & rear susp. RZ seat. DK floorboard extension & rear axle retainer kit with EBS, HD pull -back bars. Custom Dynamics front turn signals & Vent grill. All ,HD "Edge Cut " accessories.
Spoke with the owner of the bicycle shop today and we had a good chat, the supply chain is worse than the news media leads us to believe and while mostly all bicycle parts come from Asia he explained there is a shortage of raw materials as well as workers as some countries still have COVID lock-downs. He told me the trikes are not even in a shipping to begin their journey to his business.
We discussed substituting a Trailmate Desoto Hauler in yellow with a 3 speed hub, he'll be applying what I paid on the first one to the replacement model and let me know what I owe. Looks like there may be something coming soon, his ad stated "Low in inventory" hope I get one.
