HIGHLIGHTS AND FEATURES
ADVENTURE HD CHARACTERISTICS
The ICE Adventure HD applies the engineering, design and functionality of the standard ICE Adventure range, but with more generous sizing, supporting riders up to 330lbs and it is 2″ longer on the x-seam. It is the perfect trike for road and trail use with its high frame and excellent ground clearance. It features indirect steering for natural, controlled and intuitive handling from the first ride.
The higher seat position compared to some of our other trikes gives easy access to the trike and a great view when cycling. The HD features a wider and deeper seat. The seat angle can be easily adjusted to one of four positions. The Adventure HD is available in Rigid, Rear or Full Suspension models, offering several levels of riding comfort to suit all budgets. You can also choose a 20″ rear wheel frame which is ideal for touring or a 26″ rear wheel frame which is great for higher speed cycling.
DURABLE ELEGANT OPTIMISED FRAMES
Our frames are designed to respond to the forces of the rider and road. Every element of the Adventure HD frame has been engineered to complement the other, giving ICE trikes their famed riding characteristics.
Each frame is made from the finest aircraft-grade heat-treated 4130 Chromoly steel and 7005 T6 heat-treated aluminium. Chromoly steel is used in the centre frame cruciform section for the perfect combination of strength, fatigue resistance and vibration absorption. Aluminium is used in the rear frame and front boom because it is strong, lightweight and absorbs dynamic forces while ensuring maximum power transfer.
All frames are powder-coated for a beautiful durable showroom finish, whilst other components are anodised for durability.
SWEPT DESIGN CRUCIFORM
The Adventure HD features our easy access swept cruciform. Allowing you to get your feet further under you for a more stable entry and exit of the trike. We have also slightly raised the seat position by 12mm. This allows for clearer access to remove the seat when folding the trike, this also creates improved heel clearance for smaller riders.
ICE HD ERGO-LUXE SEATS
The ICE Adventure HD is available with two different seat options:
The Ergo-Luxe seat is the most comfortable trike seat on the market and the most comfortable you will ever sit on. Beautifully designed to provide the ultimate level of comfort and back support with breathable fabrics that maximise airflow.
The Ergo-Flow seat has been designed to provide optimum back support. It is lightweight and breathable which is ideal for warmer climates. Breathable fabrics maximise airflow and cooling. Cushioning in the base and side bolsters further enhances riding comfort.
Both HD seats are 2.5″ wider and 2″ deeper, maximising comfort for larger riders. The tension in the back of the seats can be easily adjusted. Both also feature a handy top weather-sealed pocket for storing small items such as keys and phones and they both have reflective side detailing that keeps you visible at night.
C.F.T FOLD
The ICE Compact Flat Twist fold is one of the many innovations that ICE has brought to the recumbent world. The fold is based around a lightweight heat-treated aluminium hinge on the main frame. All ICE trikes (except the VTX) can be folded for transporting in a car and for storing your trike.
Simply remove the seat, fold the handlebars flat, and undo the quick release lever to fold the frame. As the frame folds, the rear wheel pivots to fit flat between the front wheels. The C.F.T fold allows the trike to be folded in under 30 seconds and works with ICE accessories. You can even fold the trike with our Shimano STEPS motor system fitted.
SHIMANO STEPS E-ASSIST
The ICE Adventure HD is available with two beautifully integrated optional Shimano STEPS E-Assist motor systems:
The NEW EP8 system uses a powerful 250w electric motor, custom-designed ICE specific forged motor housing, 85Nm torque, 630Wh battery, custom display mount and Bluetooth connectivity. The EP8 system is more powerful, lighter in weight and is more user-controllable than the E6100 system.
The E6100 system uses a powerful 250w electric motor, 60Nm torque, 504Wh battery and Bluetooth connectivity. Great for general trike riding as it is the most cost effective E-Assist system from ICE.
COCKPIT
Individually optimised to suit every rider perfectly, the cockpit on the Adventure HD is 2” wider due to the stronger and wider cruciform that provides a larger cockpit. This is complemented by an HD Ergo-Luxe seat which is 2” wider and 2” deeper, coupled with the ICE Rider Positioning System the Adventure HD can be individually optimised.
WIDE HANDLEBARS
The Adventure HD features our improved handlebar design which allows for a wide roomier cockpit. This gives the rider more room while cycling, steering and turning the trike. Shown here in as a comparison with the previous Adventure HD model handlebars in grey.
SECURE INDEXED HANDLEBAR CLAMPS
The Adventure HD models feature an improved handlebar clamping system with super secure indexed clamps to ensure the handlebars easily remain fixed in position at all times and return to your preferred position after folding the trike.
ACCESSORIES
Heading out on the open road requires specialist equipment rugged enough to take you further than ever before.Whether you are out for the day or crossing mountain ranges, the ICE racks, mudguards and light mounts will allow you to carry everything you need in comfort, security and safety.
NEW AUTOMATIC GEAR SHIFTING
The NEW optional Enviolo Automatiq hub offers truly stepless fully automatic gear shifting. Forget gears! Simply pedal and go. Set your preferred pedalling speed once and the hub will constantly adjust its internal gear ratio to maintain a steady smooth cadence regardless of the speed or riding conditions you encounter. If you ride uphill it will adjust to a lower gear ratio and if you ride downhill it will do the opposite. It’s very clever! Available on 26″ rear wheel Shimano STEPS trike models. Find out more in our gearing section.
NEW GREEN COLOUR
Now you can choose the colour of your Adventure HD to suit your personality and style. The Adventure HD series is now available in a new green second colour.
The NEW green colour is vibrant, eye catching and perfectly matched to ride alongside the hugely popular Adventure HD blue. If you love the Adventure HD, but always wanted a different colour now you have a choice of two great colours.

CHOOSING THE RIGHT ADVENTURE HD FOR YOU
20″ OR 26″ REAR WHEEL TRIKE
20” rear wheel trikes are great for people who need low gears. Good for touring with heavy loads, great in hilly areas, good on tracks and traiils and roads, smaller in overall size, smaller to store and transport and good for riders who have reduced cycling power due to ability to have lower gears.
26” rear wheel trikes give good high gears ideal for road and trail cycling. They have a good range of tyres available to them from off road to racing specs. Larger wheels can hold speed a better on rough surfaces and are better in flatter areas.
RIGID AND SUSPENSION FRAMES
Adventure HD trikes are available in rigid, rear and full suspension builds. Rigid trikes are light, have good power transfer, are less complex and are cheaper and are ideal for smooth trails and roads.
Our suspension system uses elastomers to give you over 100mm of rear wheel travel and up to 40mm of front suspension travel. Rear Suspension is a tuneable, simple, robust, a single pivot suspension system giving you a smooth ride over rough terrain. Full Suspension reduces the vibration from rough road surfaces and takes the “edge” off larger impacts on the front wheels.
SHIMANO STEPS E-ASSIST
The ICE Adventure HD is available with or without electric assist. Shimano STEPS is available in two E-Assist motor systems:
The NEW EP8 system uses a powerful 250w electric motor, custom-designed ICE specific forged motor housing, 85Nm torque, 630Wh battery, custom display mount and Bluetooth connectivity. The EP8 system is more powerful, lighter in weight and is more user-controllable than the E6100 system.
The E6100 system uses a powerful 250w electric motor, 60Nm torque, 504Wh battery and Bluetooth connectivity. Great for general trike riding as it is the most cost effective E-Assist system from ICE.
GEARING
The ICE Adventure HD is available with four different gearing types. The Enviolo Automatiq Hub gearing system works with the Shimano STEPS system to give you fully automatic stepless gearing. The Rohloff 14 Speed Hub which gives you a good gear range, the ability to change gear while not pedalling, low maintenance and it is very reliable. The Alfine 8 Hub gearing system has around the same gear range as a standard 9 speed derailleur. Derailleur gears are lighter, cheaper and more efficient than hub gears. They are also used by those who are looking to ride faster. They are available in different options, to suit the conditions you expect to ride your trike in.
SEATING OPTIONS
The ICE Adventure HD is available with two different seat options: The Ergo-Luxe seat is the most comfortable trike seat on the market and the most comfortable you will ever sit on. Beautifully designed to provide the ultimate level of comfort and back support. Breathable fabrics maximise airflow, the tension in the back can be easily adjusted. The Ergo-Flow seat has been designed to provide optimum back support, it is lightweight and breathable which is ideal for warmer climates. Breathable fabrics maximise airflow and cooling. Cushioning in the base and side bolsters further enhances riding comfort. Both seats are 2″ (50mm) wider and deeper than the Adventure seats. They both feature a handy top weather-sealed pocket for storing small items such as keys and phones and reflective detailing keeps you visible at night.
SINGLE HANDED CONTROLS OPTIONS
ICE Trikes as standard come with the braking and gearing controls fitted to both handlebars. Optional single-handed controls help riders who have limited use or no use of one hand or arm to ride. You can specify controls are fitted to either the left or right handlebars. This enables the trike to be safely controlled from either side.
SHORT CRANKS OPTIONS
We also have a short crank chainset available for riders with shorter legs or with knee or hip issues which is 152mm rather than the more standard 170mm. The short cranks reduce the size of the circle that your foot tracks through the pedal rotation and by doing this they reduce the range of angles that your knees and hips go through.
NECK REST, WRIST RESTS AND ON THE ROAD PACK OPTIONS
The Adventure HD is available with optional comfort packs and accessories: The on the road pack includes all you need to get on the road: a Rear mudguard, Shimano XT SPD touring pedals, Mirror and ICE flag. A Neck rest provides extra comfort and support to your neck while riding. Wrist rests are designed to comfortably and stylishly support the rider’s wrists while riding your trike. Ideal for long journeys and riders with limited grip or strength.
