Dear Hugh,
Please don't feel that you need to respond to this note.
I know that my check reached you yesterday and I just wanted to give you a big thank you. I have rarely run into someone whose customer service skills can match up to yours.

Push brakes and paddle shifters on ICE Sprint 26
We are putting together a trike for a gentleman with a neurological condition that inhibits "pulling" action with his hands.
He has settled on an ICE Sprint 26 recumbent trike and we have determined a configuration that will allow him to operate his trike with "pushing" actions.
The pictures show a prototype solution. We intend to mount the brake levers backwards so they operate with pushes rather than pulls. Trigger shifters mounted upside down and on the "wrong" side allow the paddles of the shifters to be actuated with pushing action using the palms of his hands.
The cost to configure this is nominal.

I don't know if I will write a testimonial or not, but, if I do, it will be a good one.
I'm impressed with how this Catrike Expedition has held up. --JJ (13,000 miles)
