I am thinking about getting some assist bars. I don't need them directly
but they would make things easier getting in and out plus I can use them
as a computer mount or saddle bag/mini pump mount. What do you think do
you use them Mr Trike?

If you're going to mount a laptop on the Catrike, make sure it has an
SSD or NVMe storage drive. These are more shock resistant than a
spinning rust hard disk drive. ><https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Electronic_Human_Energized_Machine,_Only_Too_Heavy>

I think he was wanting to mount his biking computer, not a laptop. I
can't imagine how you'd mount a laptop.

Oops. I'm much more of a computer nerd than a bicycle nerd. When
someone writes the word "computer", I instantly think of the personal computer and not the bicycle computer. It's much like the word
"bike", which could be anything between a motorcycle and a monocycle.
