1.0 Introduction.
Congratulations on being a new ICE trike owner. You have purchased the finest, most refined recumbent
tricycle available today; we hope it brings you many years of enjoyment.
This manual has been written to help you assemble your trike. It is aimed at the bike shop assembling one of
our trikes for the first time, or for a customer assembling their own trike. It assumes that you have some basic
knowledge of bicycle maintenance. Recumbent trikes may be a little different from the cycles you are familiar
with, so please take a moment to read through this document. You will find the latest version of this manual in
a download-able PDF format on our website.
Throughout the manual, we have included some Tips, which have been learned from over 20 years of
experience building trikes. They are well worth taking special note of.
We hope you enjoy owning and riding your ICE trike as much as we like making these great
machines.
The ICE team
