Catrike Dumont arrives for Thanksgiving triking
Catrike is finally shipping their first Dumon full-suspension folding recumbent trikes.
Just in time for Thanksgiving, the first Dumont has arrived, and we are very Thankful!
AlphaBENT will be open Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, and building up the Dumont and getting it ready for test rides is a TOP Priority.
We'll post pictures and test rides will be possible as soon as it is built up.

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.
