We know you’d like to be kept up to date, so we’ve asked veteran motorcycle writer Guido Ebert in the States to keep an eye out for some of the more interesting innovations hitting the market over there. Saves you the trouble of scanning endless websites, because it’s right here in each issue of Cruiser+Trike!
Roadsmith Crash Bar Mounts
Stretching in one piece and topped with chrome loops, Roadsmith’s mounting/crash bar takes the place of the crash bars that were removed for your bike’s trike conversion. Worth the price to protect your trike’s wing guards from an accidental brush with disaster.

Performance Machine Stage 1 Trike Brake Kit
Performance Machine says its Stage 1 Trike Brake Kit eliminates brake fade and increases the stopping distance dramatically with less pedal effort. Using the 2010 Harley-Davidson Tri-Glide as a test unit, engineers combined the company’s four-piston caliper with the integrated race technology of its rear contour master cylinder to create an entirely new brake system for trike applications. Offered in chrome, black and contrast cut finishes, the four-piston calipers provide more clamping force to slow the bike down, while the company’s rear master cylinder provides the extra fluid to the big brakes.
MSRP: Starting at $1399.95
