    Talking Brand new to the group

    I will pick up my SE5 this week. Have had a spinal cord tumor with lower extremity weakness. This is just amazing to think I will be on a bike. I don't have a parking brake extension and wonder where I would find one. Any suggestions? Thanks Mark

    ISCI, whose link is on the home page, makes a parking brake extension, as well as a hand brake and other items which can assist a physically challenged rider. Wecome to our little group of enthusiastic Spyder nuts.

    welcome You'll find the Spyder pretty easy to modify to suit your needs. Look at the ISCI had brake and their park brake extension. If you don't have the leg strength to operate the park brake reliably, consider bolting a lever to the pedal so you can operate it with your left hand (my next mod).

    You'll find a lot of good advice here. Have fun.

    Cheers;

    Pogo.

    Welcome aboard...

    I am a left leg amputee riding a 2009 SE5 and have benefited from ideas posted in these forums.

    Check RoHo's solutions for the SE5 park brake and for the hand brake at:

    You'll find all the info you need in this place. Check out my album for an idea for park brake. Make it look cool if you do one.

    Mark,

    Welcome from the left coast from an ex-Branson, MO resident. You'll love the Spyder. Because of my physical challenge I've been riding trikes for years...I still have one, which is great for long distances with a full load, but most of the time I jump on the Spyder...too much fun not to!!
