Hi All,

What is the feeling regarding buying a trike at the coast, I have heard that it is not a good idea due to Corrosion, any advise.

Wrong!

Best place to Fly!!! Just needs slightly more maintenance, and a knowledge of local winds.

Thats a complete Gauteng myth. Most of the trike is made of aluminium and stainless steel anyway. Cant rust.
My previous trike i bought in Plettenberg Bay ( its been there for years) flew it for a year, sold it and it is still flying at the coast. Im still looking for corosion on it............
