Well kds, you asked so...here's my take. It 'looks' fairly functional; but it looks a bit crude to me. As for handling characteristics, I doubt it's on par with what else is available. CSC and Lehmann and Motor-trike etc have all been manufacturing "proven" design for a long time now. I've seen the other type of 'convertible' trike set-ups, and wouldn't go there either. The utility factor of the Super(?)trike has some appeal, but then so does my Sierra 2500. A decent cargo trailer might do as good a job for carrying things, even ladders. Pictures seldom do anything justice, but build quality looks a bit er, suspect...especially that pic of the painted plywood.
