We get this question a LOT: Should I choose direct or indirect steering? Truth be told, this really is a question of preference. There are advantages and disadvantages to each, but your steering doesn't really affect how your trike handles. Handling has more to do with things that are built into your trike (castor/camber, head tube inclination, etc). Our suggestion to you is to choose the trike and not the steering. Don't let how your handlebars are set up be a total deal breaker.
Here are a few key points:
Indirect Steering is found on more premium trikes like ICE, HP Velo and Azub models, and it tends to provide a smoother ride since your hands are more removed from the wheels. This steering also feels a little more intuitive, but it's lacking in adjustability compared to direct steering models.
Direct Steering is found on on trikes like Sunseeker, KMX and Catrike models and has more adjustability than indirect steer trikes. Riders who prefer direct steering have stated that they like the way they can "feel the road" and they feel like they have a little more control. You will feel vibration from the road a bit more with direct steering, but you will have more places to mount accessories.
