Trikke T7 Review
In the beginning when Trikke started out, There were four main versions of the carving vehicle. We had the T5, T6, T7 and the timeless T8. The numbers represent the wheel size with a frame to match. A Trikke sized for everyone in the family.
They were all polished aluminum beauties. There weren't any color choices, except for the wheels. Over the years many of these models either changed or were replaced. With all the current carving vehicles in the Trikke line-up, It seemed now was the time to fill a gap. What gap you ask? A gap that brings performance, versatility and affordability to the entry level consumer. While there are a full line of standard fold-able Trikke's available, one model that faded into the history books, the T7, has come back to us with a whole new look. Read More...

Trikke T7 Assembly
The all-new Trikke T7C is a fully convertible model that can accept 6-8 inch poly-urethane wheels and 8.5 inch air tires. This carving machine is presented at an affordable price from $169 to 179. Assembly requires a bit more than what we are used to with Trikke, but one needn't fret. The Trikke T7 shouldn't take more than 30 minutes to set up (and that's being generous).
For those with a phobia against assembly manuals, check out the video, (Trikke T7 "What's in the Box" Assembly)

The relationship between the three-wheel wonder known as the Trikke and the city of Long Beach, CA, just got a little friendlier after Mayor Bob Foster and Councilwoman Rae Gabelich were introduced to yet another bike-like alternative for the most bike friendly city in America.
The meeting took place on Wednesday, June 1, 2011, in the Bixby Knolls neighborhood at a press conference highlighting the city’s Bike Friendly Districts, designated areas where local businesses and residents are encouraged to cycle their way to discounts, better health and a more active community.
The diverse, urban beach town with half a million residents is in the midst of a decades-long makeover that’s turning Long Beach into, not only the most bike friendly city, but the most bike-alternative friendly city as well.

I had a conversation with a gal who wanted to purchase a Trikke for her grandson, she had no idea which model would work best for her family member.

Here is a link to a Trikke Sizing Chart to get a basic head start on which model will be right for you. Read More...

Although Spring sprung upon these tendrils of the Rockies with rain showers and wildflowers — today (April 23) we’re socked in with a massive snow event! Between the rain and snow storms, I’ve managed to get in the first Trikke Lessons of the season — the first being a great gentleman who trekked all the way up to me from El Paso with his new T8A.
After the intro lesson, and making assurances that he’d get past the initial frustration and get rolling — and putting him on my T12 and TPone – so he could feel the joy of riding other Ts — he’s ordered a T12 for himself – and a T67 for his grand daughter! Read More...
