Been considering a trike conversion for my wife.
Has anyone any experience with Casarva? They're based in the UK. and have several kits for many models. They're one of the few independent suspension trikes that'll sell a kit for us do-it-myselfers.
Can't find a lot of references here in the states. So... good rep?

So not even anyone in the UK has any input on this company?

Sorry, I'm in UK and thought I knew most trike firms...but I've never heard of this lot.

Just looked them up and checked out their premises on Google....their advert is bigger than their workshop....it's a tiny unit on an industrial estate in Peterborough......that's not to say they aren't any good at their work but from the web site I was expecting a fairly major outfit...this looks like two men and a dog.

Looks to be a quality build, don't know but it looks costly

They all are. This basic kit is about $4K, but probably $7K-$8k done.
Priced a 15 year old Goldwing trike lately?... About $18K
