Azub: We built it based on our non-suspended either separable or folding T-Tris recumbent trike and made the frame wide enough in the rear to accommodate a 26×4,8″ rear tire. We added higher handlebars and chosen components – not only functional but also great looking. The AZUB FAT trike has no suspension and therefore belongs among representatives of the classical fat bikes. As well as other AZUB trikes, it has a very good weight distribution with the rider sitting as close to the rear wheel as possible, which significantly improves the grip of the rear wheel in difficult terrain. Also the seat bottom height is low, which decreases the ground clearance a bit but improves the stability.
Basically, all AZUB bikes and trikes are custom built, and the FAT trike is no exception. You can order it with different colors, drive train components including the Rohloff hub or the the amazing 18 speed Pinion drive (for the first time in standard AZUB price list), and many accessories. However, the red rims and Schwalbe Jumbo Jim tires will always be the same. We just love them and we are pretty sure so will you.
IPS – Ideal Position System
This system has made AZUB famous since the brand’s foundation in 2000. It allows riders to find the right position on their AZUB recumbent through a wide range of adjustable seat positions, through the possibility of adjustment their under-seat or upper-seat steering and last but not least, through the possibility of setting the ideal frame length.
Sliding seat bracket
Our new system of saddle sliding immediately on a frame tube, which is used in all our bikes and trikes represents a further development of our IPS and we are really excited about it. It is really accurate in operation, fast and allows you to adjust your seating position with millimeter accuracy.
In order to facilitate handling, we have placed a guide rail on the frame, which prevents the sleeve from spinning and the angular offset of the seat to the seating plane and pedaling position. The entire bracket is then controlled by two quick releases. The upper one releases the seat, the lower one allows for moving the seat on the frame.
The bracket is made of heavy-duty plastic reinforced with glass fiber and we have been testing it in full operation for many months. The technology we use within its production also guarantees that the frame will remain free of major scratches even in frequent shifting.
F2F – folding trike
The TRIcon is a folding trike with a folding hinge allowing you to fold the trike into a flat package within about a minute, or even less. The hinge we use is solid, easy to use and quick in operation.
The trike can be folded in half for transport in a car trunk. You can get a much smaller package by dismounting the rear wheel and folding the rear fork using just one quick release.
If you need to have the trike folded as much as possible, you can also quickly remove the front wheels and you get an amazingly small item.
For serious travels with your TRIcon trike, we offer a transport bag. This soft suitcase can also be used together with a special trailer for carrying baggage during your journeys. More>>>>>
