The Queensland Government's Transport and E-mobility Bill has been front and centre of the cycling community's attention. We have been no different and have spent significant time reading and digesting the bill and considering the impact on general cycling and the recumbent community in particular.

Read our submission to the State Development, Infrastructure and Works Committee here: https://www.dtrecumbents.com.au/Docs/DTR%20Submission%20on%20e-mobility%20bill.pdf

And here is some information on how theEN15194:2017+A1 standard relates to recumbents: https://www.dtrecumbents.com.au/Docs/EN15194%20and%20Recumbents.pdf

Happy New Trike Day, Rhys!

ICE Trikes continue to innovate, and the recently introduced hand cycles are no exception. I see many features on these handcycles that address issues I've noted with other brands, and of course the integrated e-assist is extra neat!
While the recent change to e-bike importation rules makes things tricky, we believe there is a way to import without undue difficulty.

If an ICE Handcycle interests you, contact us and we can talk further!

Our latest blog post is up, a bit of a ramble about disc brakes on trikes, their care and adjustment!

We’ve been struggling to fit smaller riders to the regular production trikes available. The x-seam measurement is the typical defining dimension but there’s often more to it than that. Smaller people don’t simply have short legs, but are proportionally scaled down in all dimensions, and trikes should be similar!

We now have our prototype small trike completed and on the road! Scaled down to suit x-seams from 860 – 1020mm, the trike features 16” wheels, a compact size, and agile handling.

If this sounds appealing, drop us a line!
Oh, and we haven’t decided on a name…suggestions?
