Rider Profile

Best ForThis trike is best suited to complete beginners, young riders, or those needing a very gentle, low-powered introduction to three-wheeled riding.
PurposeIt is designed for short, low-speed neighborhood errands and leisurely putt-arounds rather than any kind of serious transportation or performance use.
Rider FitIts light weight, low seat height, and three-wheel stability make it very easy and unintimidating to handle physically, requiring minimal strength or skill.
CharacterIt has a friendly, unhurried, toy-like character that prioritizes stability and simplicity over speed or excitement.
Not Ideal ForIt is not for anyone wanting highway travel, real touring distances, a passenger, or any kind of spirited or fast riding.

2016 Ice Bear Elf 50 Trike Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 770mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2016 Ice Bear Elf 50 Trike, with a relaxed knee angle of around 120 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
