Answer 1

I can't speak for this company, but my wife and another woman i know both have voyager kits on their bikes, and they work very well. the kit handles like a trike in most respects, and they are very stable. my friend who rides one has over 20,000miles on hers and has only had one problem, that was corrected by a redesign of the part that failed. my wife has about 4000miles on her kit, and had the same part fail, which was replaced with the redesigned part.

i personally have ridden my wifes voyager equipped hinda 750 ace and the bike is very stable thru high speed corners.

the ride is rough,compared to a normal bike, but this is due to the extra wheels picking up the bumps in the road.

over all, not a bad way to convert a bike to a "trike". also, the kit comes off in about 5 minutes, and the bike can be ridden 2 wheel again.

Answer 2

I am confused . What is the Question? What are you trying to find out.

Answer 3

The Voyager Kit is much like Instatrike.  I'm told the Voyager doesn't handle particularly well.

Answer 4

Not more dangerous... mostly handling differences... steering etc. Trikes handle completely different from bikes and 'training wheel' kits handle a little different than trikes. Biggest dif between trikes and Voyager type kits is the fact that you don't have a differential tracking the outside and inside wheel (they turn at different speeds)... but they are not connected so work like a trailer. Basically they are all choices to fill different needs. Ride 'em ride 'em ride 'em before making a decision
