The TRIcon 26 is based on the well known TRIcon 20 recumbent trike which we have been producing from 2010. 26" rear wheel gives the trike great comfort, bigger ground clearance of the rear derailleur and slightly lower rolling resistance. Some of the riders also like the look of the trike more. On the other hand it also put more stress on the rear wheel and on the complete frame and rear fork. Way too often the trikes with 26" rear wheel are too soft and especialy cornering in higher speeds feels a bit strange. 
That was the reason why we come with new solutions which we hope will decrease the disadvanteges to absolute minimum and will greatly improve the stifness of the whole trike and will also make your riding experience with 26" rear wheel trike better than on any other compettitive tricycle. 

The main improvement is our folding hinge which is very precisely machined and which work so good the frame works like made out of once piece of main tube. The second improvement is wider
