Why ride a Recumbent Trike?
Ideally suited for the Central Otago trails, offering a stability and view that standard upright bikes cannot match.
Zero Saddle Pain
Sit in a breathable, ergonomic mesh seat. No pressure points on wrists, shoulders, or back.
Panoramic Views
Riding heads-up means you actually see the mountains, not the front wheel.
Total Stability
Three wheels means no balancing required. Stop to take a photo without putting a foot down.
