igus® iglide® bearings X Triot US Bike Tour Full
The trikes manufactured here are life-changing, built specifically for riders with muscle deficiencies, prosthetics, or other disabilities that might restrict them from riding a standard bicycle. Each trike is custom-built based on the customer’s specific needs, guaranteeing complete familiarity and total comfort on every ride.
How does igus help these magnificent machines roll? Triot trikes rely on both iglide and igubal 2.0 bearings to handle two critical design problems. The original bearings would frequently snap if too much force was applied to a single side of the trike. Plus, because the trikes sit so low to the ground, corrosion from dirt and moisture was a frequent issue with all-metal bearings. Our lightweight, corrosion-resistant polymer bearings provided the perfect fix, ensuring the trikes are durable and reliable for every user.
After a fantastic day of enlightening conversation and even trying out the Triot trikes for themselves, our riders were ready to say goodbye to Marty and the Triot team. It was almost time to end their jam-packed week with some well-deserved, high-octane fun — starting off with the incredible Red Bull Rampage mountain biking event near Zion National Park in Virgin, Utah!
