ICE Recumbent Trike SEATING Options

ICE Ergo-Luxe Seat Overview

You'll have to try it to believe it! This is the most comfortable trike seat on the market and the most comfortable you will ever sit on. Beautifully designed to provide the ultimate level of comfort and back support. The Ergo-Luxe mesh seat is now standard on all Adventure and Adventure HD trikes.

Breathable fabrics maximise airflow, and ergonomic extra cushioning in the base and sides further enhance comfort. The tension in the back can be easily adjusted to suit the rider. Integral Sidepod mounts eliminate the need for over the seat Sidepod straps. A handy top weather-sealed pocket for small items such as keys and phones. Reflective side detailing keeps you safe at night.

New for 2019, Ergo-Luxe Short Back Seat has a 2" (50mm approx), shorter back compared to the standard Ergo-Luxe seat, this greatly improves the positioning of the neck rest, making it ideal and more comfortable for shorter riders. The width remains the same as the standard Ergo-Luxe seat. Ideal for riders under 5ft 4" (162cm) tall. The Ergo-Luxe Short seat is an option on Adventure.

ADVENTURE

The Adventure Ergo-Luxe mesh seat is designed for a more upright riding position so it has a longer seat base section. If you are over 5ft 5" (165cm) tall you should choose this seat option.

NEW Adventure Ergo-Luxe Short Back mesh seat has a 2" (50mm approx), shorter back than the standard Ergo-Luxe seat. If you are under 5ft 4" (162cm) tall you should choose this seat option.
ADVENTURE HD

The Adventure HD Ergo-Luxe mesh seat is 2” (50mm approx), wider than the Adventure seat and is also 2” (50mm approx) deeper behind the seat mount in the seat base, meaning that it puts the rider’s position further from the pedals. This is ideal for taller and larger riders giving them a more comfortable seating position and a less cramped feeling to the cockpit.

ICE Ergo-Flow Seat Overview

The ICE Ergo-Flow mesh seat is the standard on the Sprint X Tour and the Full Fat and an option on Adventure and Adventure HD models. There are different models of the Ergo-Flow mesh seat which each have specific characteristics for the trike they fit.

SPRINT X TOUR

The Sprint X Tour Ergo-Flow mesh seat is designed to be ridden at a more reclined seat angle so it has a short base. It is designed with small and average size riders in mind so it has a 15” width to help riders in that size range fit snugly in place without being constricted.
ADVENTURE

The Adventure Ergo-Flow mesh seat is designed for a more upright riding position so it has a longer seat base section than the Sprint seat. The same seat frame is also fitted to the Full Fat with a different, model-specific seat cover.
ADVENTURE HD

The Adventure HD Ergo-Flow mesh seat is 2” wider than the Sprint and the Adventure seat and is also 2” deeper behind the seat mount in the seat base, meaning that it puts the rider’s position further from the pedals. This is ideal for taller and larger riders giving them a more comfortable seating position and a less cramped feeling to the cockpit.

ICE Air-Pro Seat Overview

Our Air-Pro hardhsell seat is handmade in-house to the highest standards by our master craftsmen. It is a lightweight form-fitting seat which is stiff and strong, providing excellent power transfer and making sure everything you put into the pedals makes it to the road. It is available in two materials and two sizes to suit different riders and different budgets. It is finished with a foam core fabric cover with dual density foam tuned for maximum comfort while keeping the weight low and the feel of the seat sporty.

GRP

The Glass Reinforced Plastic (GRP) version of the Air-Pro seat is the lower cost option which is fitted as standard on the Sprint X and VTX, and is available as an upgrade on all Sprint X Tour. It is composed of glass fibre and polyester resin, resulting in a very tough and durable seat with a gloss black finish.
CARBON

The Carbon fibre version of the Air-Pro seat is around 0.5kg lighter than the same size seat in GRP. It is made from layers of carbon fibre woven cloth, with the fibres orientated for maximum strength in specific areas of the seat. The fibres are bonded together with a polyvinyl resin making it lighter and stronger than the GRP version.

Its very cool to see a piece of #ICETrikes history! Our dealer in Tucson Arizona #AjoBikes had a custom Trice Pixie come in to their store, it is over 15 years old but looks brand new! Chris believes that we only made 2-3 Pixies in total so this is an incredibly rare beast.
