Description

Note:  As of late 2018 there has been shake-up in ICE Sprint/Sprint-X nomenclature.  All “Sprint” models are now “Sprint-X” models, but the “Sprint-X” has the lightweight racing wheels while the “Sprint-X Tour” has the touring wheelset.  This seems like a lot of fuss to us.  The difference between the Sprint and Sprint-X was pretty superficial, as is the difference between Sprint-X and Sprint-X Tour.  Begging your pardon, we’ll just identify these trikes by their previous names.  We hope this doesn’t confuse people, but it wouldn’t be the first time we’ve overestimated the intelligence of the general public.

The ICE Sprint is a lower, more reclined, and more sporty trike with all the same options as the Adventure.  The Sprint can be many things.  The classic form of the Sprint is un-suspended with a 26 inch rear wheel, making it a light and sporty folding trike, but suspension for the 26″ rear wheel is now available as well.  It has a lower seat height compared to the Adventure, for greater stability and lighter weight.  Or set it up with full suspension for a more plush ride in either form.  We compare the Sprint to the Catrike Expedition, a similar type, but offering folding features, the suspension option, and an adjustable recline.  It also differs from “sport touring” models from Catrike or TerraTrike in it’s indirect steering, which has a different feel.

Overall, we consider the Sprint our fastest folding trike.

The Sprint also comes in a speed-specific spec called the Sprint X, which features the “Race” wheel set standard on the ICE VTX racing trike.

Our price:  depends on spec, but generally $4,295 to $7,600.  See also the Sprint X

  • Rear gearing — Choose between standard rear derailer, 3-speed hub with rear derailer (for super wide-range gearing), 8-speed Alfine hub, or wide ranging, fabulously engineered, rugged and ferociously expensive 14-speed Rohloff Speedhub.

  • Crankset & Front Derailer — A selection of crank arm lengths, quality levels and chainring sizes are available depending on your needs.  Front derailers match with the crankset.
  • Seat — Standard mesh seat or Air Pro shell seat for speed, available in fiberglass or carbon fiber construction.
  • Parking Brake — Choose no parking brake, simple Velcro straps, or a third brake on the rear wheel with a special lever.
  • Tyres — British trikes all come with tyres, not tires.  A wide selection of Schwalbe tires are available, from long-wearing to fast to puncture resistant.
