anybody feel like we are slowly running out of parts, and that it is only a matter of time before something breaks that we cannot get? its kindof sad man, when you get to be alot more cautious riding your old ATC for fear that whatever you break cannot be replaced.

everything for these bikes should be out of patent by now, so maybe we can outsource impossible to get parts out to chinese manufacturers? i guess we would have to tear a machine down to have the parts copied... any thoughts on what is getting to be hard/impossible to get?

 

Parts are getting harder to come by but, I'm also seeing an uprise in people finding old trikes and bringing them back to life .Kind of coming back in style if you will. I have had great success on e-bay for alot of my parts. But I don't ride as much as I used to, being worried that something will break. My bikes are pretty much put up now, just for show. I decided to start getting into the mini sprint scene, A matter of fact I bought my first one yesterday.
