      Thank-you. I am considering getting a another trike with power assist for my next touring bike. I have toured on both the Surly and the HP Scorpion. The surly is faster and more nimble but the scorpion in more comfortable, and it is much easier to do long days on the bike and can carry more I discussed the difference in my Trike vs Bike video.
