Visited the shop today . Nice to be able to ride and see these machines in person . " They " say , go with the one that feels right , speaks to you . For me today , it was the Sprint Tour . Wow , what a ride . I want to send a TY out to Vinny for the time spent today . I will for sure be in touch ..

[@neilsonwheels]

Thanks for the comparison. I did notice the seats were in the fully “up” position on both trikes so could be reclined a lot more

[@BikeOnDotCom]

Yes so important to find that perfect comfort level while still being able to hold good performance.

The larger rear wheel allows the frame to clear the ground - to prevent frame damage from potholes and uneven road surfaces.

Yes, i purchased the sprint x tour from icetrikes about 3 weeks ago.. can't get it until july unfortunately.. 16week delay.

[@BikeOnDotCom]

Congrats on your new trike! You will certainly love it. Unfortunately, yes very tough right now for the cycling industry with delays all over the world. Happy Cycling!

[@jimmysapien9961]

I am looking

[@SaintDudeGaming]

Really random question ... what rack did you have on the back of the Sprint X 26". I don't think I've seen one like that before.

[@BikeOnDotCom]

Not random at all, we actually get this question often... They were custom Bike-On trike racks we used to make & sell.

[@lizm6721]

Do you have the sprint tour with electric available??

[@BikeOnDotCom]

Liz, we'd love to help. Please email [e-mail].

Unfortunately the suspension of all ICE trikes are inadequate. They need to add gas shocks.

[@petervick4775]

Rubbish! You probably haven't got it set up right for your weight. Different elastomers or repositioning is most likely needed.
