Seat Riser Kit for TerraTrikes

Price: $74.95


Quantity:

While our TerraTrikes are fun to ride for everyone, getting in and out can be a hassle for some people. This adjustable riser raises the seat height to 16 inches making it easier to get on the trike.

The Utah Trikes seat riser kit includes the following:
QTY 1 - Seat Riser Block
QTY 1 - Extended Seat Stay Rods
QTY 2 - Bolt and Nut

We have two different sizes of the Seat Riser available depending on how high you want the seat to go. Our 4 inch riser block raises the seat height to 16 inches. Our 2 inch riser block raises the seat height to approximately 13-1/2 inches.

Our 4 inch riser will allow you to move the seat forward about 2 inches above the handlebars, which is great for shorter riders. Our 2 inch riser will allow the seat to be moved backwards about 2 inches for the taller riders.

Our Seat Riser Kit has been designed to be used specifically for use with the chromoly framed indirect/linkage steering model TerraTrikes. The base of the riser uses the two seat holes found on the chromoly frames. The Seat Riser Kit will work with the aluminum models that use indirect/linkage steering with just a single bolt. Our Seat Riser Kit is NOT compatible with the Zoomer or Edge model TerraTrikes.

Note: Our seat riser kit will change the center of gravity and handling characteristics of your trike. For faster riders we do not recommend the seat riser because of the possibility of tipping at high speed.

Will it support a hardshell seat ?

I shall be happy if such a riser could help me to install a carbon seat on my Zoomer (and then change the whole chain routing)

Will this be an add on after the the trike has left the store? Could be installed by user?

This kit will not work with the Zoomer trikes because the Zoomer models use an integrated frame.

The Seat Riser Kit can be added at any time.

what about Catrikes?

The Catrikes have an integrated seat as part of their frame. The only way to raise the height of the seat on an existing Catrike is to add foam or some sort of padding. If you are looking for a Catrike with a higher seat, the Villager has a height of about 12 inches.

Does the riser affect the use of the commuter bag behind the seat?

You can still use the Commuter bag. Depending on the seat angle you may have to extend the straps, or hook the straps to a lower position.

I've installed the 4" riser and the Zoomer handlebar mods on my Cruiser and they work great. The riser makes it easy to get up and down with my arthirtitic back, but left the hand grips half way down my thighs. The Zoomer bar extensions get my hands back up and in a more comfortable position.
