ICE Trice T and Trice TNT Tadpole Recumbent Trikes / Tricycles ~ ICE Inspired Cycle Engineering

An ultra-comfortable touring recumbent trike now with rear suspension and folding as standard.

Trice T ~ A Trike Design with Pedigree

The Trice T is a sedate and refined touring trike from ICE. Its frame is based on the ever-popular Trice Explorer. The Trice T shares the same high seat as the Trice Explorer making it easy to get on and off. Carefully chosen components and meticulous attention to detail in the construction of the part steel part aluminum frame make this trike unbeatable value for money.

What is this trike about?

The T in Trice T stands for Tour and this trike is an excellent choice for cruising along on your favorite trails. The T maneuvers easily and the rear suspension is fantastically comfortable on uneven pavement. It is very unlikely you will have ever ridden in such comfort and this machine will put a smile on your face every time you ride it.

How comfortable is the Trice T?

The super-breathable mesh seat has lumbar and shoulder support to provide day-long comfort. This seat gives great support to your back and the angle adjustment of the seat ensures your neck and spine will not feel the strain of a long days cycling. Long rides are much more enjoyable if you are comfortable, and lunch at that beautiful viewpoint is much nicer if you already have somewhere to sit.

The Trice T Boasts big ground clearance with aerodynamic performance

If you are looking for a machine with the T’s specifications, but with a hard shell seat, the Standard ICE hard shell can be fitted to the Trice T. This seat has even more angle adjustment so you can ride sat up or very reclined.

Trice TNT Narrow Track Option

The Trice T is also available with a narrow track option. This model has a front track 4″ (10cm) narrower than the standard track which can really help if you regularly need to squeeze through narrow gaps or want to store the trike in a smaller space.

The narrow track option does reduce the stability of the trike so this option is not recommended where high stability is the priority. It is still possible to ride fast through corners but a little more body leaning will be required.

The narrow track also reduces the maximum cockpit width between the handlebars and so is not recommended for heavier riders. On the other hand, if you are a smaller person, a steady rider and prefer the higher seat then this could be your ideal choice. We even offer short cranks and the FF bracket which moves the seat forward in relation to the cross axle for very short legged riders.

Easy Storage and Transport

Trice Folding

When you are not riding, the Trice T can be separated and folded down to a convenient size for easy & secure transportation and storage. If the higher seat of the Trice T and storage and transport are a top priority then do consider the Narrow Track option for the T.

The Trice T features:

  • Easy to get on and off
  • Tunable rear suspension
  • Separates and folds tool-lessly
  • Big, 7”(17.7cm), Ground clearance
  • Loads of angle adjustment for the Seat
  • A choice of two seats
  • Available in Two track widths
  • 20” wheels all round
  • Drum brakes or Hydraulic Discs
  • Mesh or hard shell seat
  • Sky blue sparkle powder-coat finish

Price includes a Rear Mudguard (fender), a mirror, a flag, and a full set of chain tubes to keep the oil on the chain and off of you.

A great range of accessories are also available from ICE for the Trice T, so you can select from the list of extras to enhance your machine.
