A frame question

Hi all, playing with the Portafold on the back of my Trike I found it’s a nightmare to reverse mainly due to the very short A frame. Has anyone ever found the need to lengthen there A frame. It would also lower the nose weight .

Never had a problem, it is short, it's just a case of adjusting your reversing style a bit. Use less steering wheel movement and it's fine.
