Touring tricycle with suspension
For the discriminating cyclists who wants fine engineering, a suspended, comfortable ride, and awesome handling, the Scorpion FX gives the long distance tourist folding transportability
HP Velotechnik took the basic design and engineering behind the Scorpion, and added a center skewed hinge on a higher-clearance frame. Remove the seat and rear wheel with quick-release mechanisms, and the whole trike packs into a small enough package to fit in the hold of a bus.
We quote the price of the basic 24-speed package built around the SRAM Dual-Drive hub, but this trike really shines with your custom drivetrain. We love to build these up from a framekit. Choose a Shimano Capreo wide-range, a Rohloff Speedhub, Schlumpf drive, or derailleur-bases system, and we'll help you fill it out in a way that suits your needs best.
