Staff Review:
"The Trice T 20" with rear suspension is the ultimate trike for touring. The rear suspension makes rough roads seem like your riding on a brand new paved road. The seat height makes this trike easy to get in and out of, while making you feel more visible to motorists. This trike has one of the highest ground clearances of any tadpole trike." - Krysti

A Design with Pedigree
The Trice T is a sedate and refined touring trike from ICE. Its frame was based on the popular Trice Explorer. The Trice T shares the same high seat as the Trice Explorer making it easy to get on and off. Carefully chosen components and meticulous attention to detail in the construction of the part steel part aluminium frame makes this trike unbeatable value for money.
What is this trike about?
T stands for Tour and this trike is an excellent choice for cruising along your favorite trails. The T maneuvers easily and the rear suspension is fantastically comfortable on uneven pavement. It is very unlikely you will have ever ridden in such comfort and this machine will put a smile on your face every time you ride it.
How comfortable is it?
The super-breathable mesh seat has lumbar and shoulder support to provide day-long comfort. This seat gives great support to your back and the angle adjustment of the seat ensures your neck and spine will not feel the strain of a long days cycling. Long rides are much more enjoyable if you are comfortable, and lunch at that beautiful view point is much nicer if you already have somewhere to sit.
Big ground clearance with aero performance
If you are looking for a machine with the T�s specifications, but with a hard shell seat, the Standard ICE hard shell can be fitted to the Trice T. This seat has even more angle adjustment so you can ride sat up or very reclined.
Narrow Track Option
The Trice T is also available with a narrow track option. This model has a front track 4" (10cm) narrower than the standard track which can really help if you regularly need to squeeze through narrow gaps or want to store the trike in a smaller space.
The narrow track option does reduce the stability of the trike so this option is not recommended where high stability is the priority. It is still possible to ride fast through corners but a little more body leaning will be required.
The narrow track also reduces the maximum cockpit width between the handle bars and so is not recommended for heavier riders. On the other hand, if you are a smaller person, a steady rider and prefer the higher seat then this could be your ideal choice. We even offer short cranks and the FF bracket which moves the seat forward in relation to the cross axle for very short legged riders - see Rider size page
Easy Storage and Transport
When you are not riding, the Trice T can be separated and folded down to a convenient size for easy & secure transportation and storage. If the higher seat of the Trice T and storage and transport are top priority then do consider the Narrow Track option for the T.
A great range of accessories are also available from ICE for the Trice T, so you can select from the list of extras to enhance your machine. The Trice T is only recommended for riders of body weight up to 252 lbs, (18 st., 114 kg). This is the weight of the rider only, not including the trike, accessories or luggage.

I'm concerned about seat angle and smooth ride for my bad back.Mesh seat only reclines to 42 degrees, how far does hard seat recline? Does it ride smoother than an expedition, which is hard.

If you have a bad back, the mesh seat will most likely be better for you. Also, if you need it to recline further you can slide the rear boom out and it will cause the seat to lay back more.
As far as the hard shell seat goes, you can lay it back more, but I would not say that it rides softer than the mesh seat.

How much weight can the rear rack hold safely on a bumpy road or path?

It is rated at 90lbs. I will say that we have loaded it with much more though.

I also have ostio arthritis in my spine, the lower lumbar and neck regions are the worst and get inflammed while riding my standard bicycle, even with larger bars and seat. This trike interests me since it can have a head rest attached.
