The ICE Handcycle. They really engineered this thing well. Thank you Ottie and Phil for taking the time to introduce us to this trike.

I did a video for the AZUB T-Tris unboxing and now its time for a video of a ICE Trike unboxing. Both companies are great. I recieved nothing damaged from shipping. This ICE had a bent hinge which almost had to have happened at their shop prior to shipment. it took a bit of bending back, and paint scraping to get it to fit right. It will be a problem the entire lifetime of this trike unless it is replaced. But it is functional.

The ICE Sprint X Recumbent Trike. Sportier than me in many ways. Its got a smaller size, narrower track, and the seat has more lean in it than I am accustomed to. However, after a bit, I did not notice it as much.

If you are not using the Pedaling Innovations Catalyst pedals, do yourself a favor and get you a pair. I sell them on my site. NorthTexasRecumbentz.com
Pretty much anybody who comes in to test ride my trikes, ends up with a good idea of what they want for a trike, and they leave with a new pair of pedals for their existing trike , trikes, or bikes. I have a new batch coming in next week.

in one month of business I've already expanded my shop to nearly double the original size. The new space will serve me and the customer quite well. I build the trikes here and perform trike servicing. In this space I store all my demo trikes and occasionally a customer trike if they are wanting service done. My hours are flexible and therefore by appointment only at this time. My goal is to get this rolling well and then expanding again. I have my eye on another couple spaces in the building but dont need anything until things take off. I can wait.

Getting to know the AZUB T-Tris has been refreshing. Though it does not have the suspension the Ti-Fly has, it fits alot of peoples' budgets better. If you cant convince yourself for the suspension, the next best thing is the ultra quality of an AZUB T-Tris.

AZUB knows how to pack a trike for transport. I spent as much time unpacking it out of the box as I did doing the final assembly.

This video from last week really shows how beneficial the suspension is on a Recumbent Trike. There are so many reasons you want suspension.
A more comfortable ride whether you are on an uneaven surface or a paved road with potholes or dips, or even just harsh concrete cracks. Suspension will save your body from absorbing all those types of punishment.
Safer on fast corners: When turning hard and fast there is so much force on the outside wheel. Suspension will give reducing the actual side forces that want to take you over and flip you.
The accidental 'Jumps" While 6 inches isnt too far fiding along like this will contain a sudden suprise every now and again. This isnt the first time I have encountered this. With Suspension its better to actually accelerate and keep moving than to try to go slow here.
Azub Ti-fly for the win!
