Honza of AZUB and I start our tour of Czechia and Slovakia. Honza was riding his MINI AZUB recumbent bicycle, and I was riding my custom built AZUB TiFLY X. The first day’s ride was short but on an incline as we headed to the border of Slovakia. Along the way we saw some changes in scenery and Honza educated us about the landscape and history.

What do you think of KANEC for the name of the trike? (wild pig)
Do you think we should have drunk beers with that guy?

  2. You mentioned not feeling much diff between the new X and the old 20.

    One thing for sure: your old 20 tolerated a greater off-camber state in the front wheels. Think riding across a slope instead of up or down it – or riding on a sidewalk and dropping one front wheel off the curb.

    With 20" front wheels and a 26" rear wheel, it takes about 9" of off-camber to flip me and my ICE Adventure HD.

    But when I put 26" front wheels on it, the off-camber tolerance drops to 7.5".

    That's when one front wheel is raised relative to the other front wheel and the rear wheel.

    YMMV because you have also gone from a 20" to a 26" rear wheen, but the general tendencies are there.

  3. It sounds like you weren’t exactly happy with the 26" wheels on steeper grades. Since I live in the most mountainous State in the US, should I consider 20” Ti-Fly if I sell/trade my 20” Tricon. Also Shimano Steps or Brose? I’m sold on trying out Rohloff. I’ve got about 25 years on you and with all the uphills it seems like electric assist is in my future.

  4. LOVE the drone shots! What drone do you use? I bought a DJI Mini (a few generations old at this point, but it was less expensive), in hopes of filming some drone shots for my own future triking videos. Man, Czechia really is a beautiful country isn't it? What a great start to your shakedown tour!

  5. Im from Malaysia and im greatly honoured you mentioned my country. im new to this channel and also im an avid fan of travel channel , i also ride tour bike and your trike is something i would very much like to see

  6. With a much higher trike you need to watch your turn radius. From 20 inch wheels and tires to 26 inch wheels and tires you're higher off the ground and more visible as to me and my straight 20s all the way around

  7. All i can say is “ WOW “ …. Love the views and can only imagine to push up the hills. Thanks for sharing and looking forward to your next offering≥

  8. Ahh Matt, you are getting me excited to hit the road again! How are you liking those Pedaling Innovations Catalyst pedals by now? I love my pair … much more powerful on uphills, with no foot pain ever anymore, no hotspots, yee haa.

  9. Honzas bike looks just like my challenge furai, that I bought used this summer. I still have to learn driving it better. Very difficult. It's like learning driving from the start. Most problems I still have on hills and tight curves. Honza is cycling like a pro.

  10. even on my AZUB T-Tris, i lean into my turns.. and i approach turns (especially on a decline) slowly.. ride safely Ja Yoe

  11. You can buy the bungee cord in bulk and redo your tent poles.. I got mine at a hardware store, just had to find similar size to the old bungee.. Not difficult to do..

  12. I very much enjoyed all of these videos and watching how your bike was made in the small business is used. I was bouncing back-and-forth between another ice or the Azub and I’m leaning towards the Azub
