At slowish speed it is not an issue but when speeds increase the need to balance becomes quite extreme (often more than on a regular single). Having said that, back in the 70's I had a trike made for my developmentally and balance-challenged neighbor. He loved his trike and quickly became a fixture riding his trike in the neighborhood. He got a good 10 years out of the trike, riding every day.
PS: my trike is 59-60 cm ST C/C

Polyglot,
Great info. The customer is 6’3-6’4ish so yours may work. I’m in the SF Bay Area.
The Catrike seems promising too.
