Trice QNT - Narrow-track touring / commuting recumbent trike
The 2008 model of the Trice Qnt includes a rear suspension and foldability. This trike keeps the ICE QNT's geometry and good looks and will satisfy most people's needs in a touring or commuting recumbent tricycle.
The geometry is based on the Trice XLNT, which is one of the most stable sports trikes in the world. It has narrower 27" track, and zero pedal-steer or brake-steer.
With the removal of the rear-wheel, the suspension allows the trike to be folded for easier transport.
The brakes are weather-resistant Sturmey-Archer drums. [Note: I don't know what ICE does to their drum brakes, but they are extremely crisp and quick stopping. The performance is comparable to discs, but the drums are more weather-resistant and simplify wheel removal.]
The 27-speed drivetrain is composed of solid road-bike components on the front (crankset and derailleur), and mountain-bike components on the rear (cassette and derailleur).
Trice QNT's come in your choice of a beautiful metallic candy-apple red or metallic marine blue finish.
Your Trice QNT touring trike will comes with the following standard equipment:
- tuneable rear suspension
- 27-speed drivetrain
- drum-brakes
- 20" wheels sporting 100psi tires
- rear mudguard
- high-visibility flag
- side-view mirror
Please note that the new Trice QNT does NOT come with the rear rack as standard equipment.
Other options include mechanical and hydraulic disc brakes, bar-end shifters, front fenders / mudguards, quick-release kit, and neckrest.
