I own a modified EZ-3. I've been experimenting with various canopy
attachments. Anyone care to compare notes etc., ?

I've not tried to make a canopy.

Sun has a canopy kit, listed in the recumbent accessories on their
website (if you were not aware). I saw one mounted in the LBS a few days
ago, it appeared to work quite well but it didn't cover a real large
area, only about 30 inches square. Just enough shade for your head really.

Thanks,

The ones I've made so far are used along with the head rest I've made.
The one I'm currently using is 32" long. I will be attempting a longer
version.

I would like to see what you have come up with. We are looking for
something as an option for a Canopy for our new Electric Trikes.
