Fortunately, getting exercise has never been easier. Now that we have recumbent trikes, everyone can get out and exercise regularly.

Whether your goals are to ride for exercise, transportation, recreation, or all of the above, a recumbent trike breaks down the barriers that might stop you from getting out on a cycle.

Balance issues, personal discomfort, or a simple fear of falling all fall by the wayside on a recumbent trike.

Face-time with ICE. Ask all of your questions. Find out what happens behind the scenes. And, try trikes, trikes, trikes... including the fully automatic ICE Adventure electric trikes.

Azub trikes are adventure ready

Azub will be at AlphaBENT on Wednesday, October 23 to show the latest Czech recumbent technology. Come to for test-rides, and bent-talk.

Catrike has made wider hubs with through-axles standard equipment on all large-wheel models. This change affects the following recumbent trike models: Expedition, 559, Dumont, and 700. The change promotes laterally stronger wheels and prevents movement within the dropouts under load at the expense of compatibility with equipment such as electric hub moters that are designed to the older 135mm dropout widths.
