Tri-1 7 Speed
Here at Pashley we have a hard-earned reputation for crafting the very best tricycles, that has endured for over eighty years, and we constantly strive to build on this reputation with ongoing innovation.
The Tri-1 is a marriage of our classic three-wheeled design with the very best modern componentry. The ‘fixed gear’ model is designed for simple, worry-free riding. Its short 150mm cranks provide a more natural pedalling action for shorter riders or those with restricted leg movement. The chrome riser handlebars put you in an upright position for the best visibility and comfort and a fully-enclosed chaincase protects you from the moving chain.
It also features a folding frame for easy transportation and storage. Add to this the luxury of a sprung gel saddle and the security of pedals with toe-clips and straps, you have the perfect companion offering an unrivalled sense of stability and comfort that only a tricycle can provide.
COVID-19 Update: Unfortunately, the build lead times at our factory in Stratford-upon-Avon have increased considerably. For further information please see our lead times page.
Gears: Fixed | RRP (UK): £805 (folding frame)
- Robust tricycle frame with stable and upright riding position, with folding frame: An easy to mount/dismount frame with comfortable upright riding position that allows you a good view of other road users and the scenery, and the added bonus of encouraging a healthy posture. Its folding frame is a useful feature to reduce overall length where storage or transport space is at a premium (approximate dimensions when folded: W=80cm, L=100cm, H= 68cm (17" frame) or 63cm (15" frame), with saddle removed). The frame is hand-built with an attention to detail that only a frame crafted by hand can possess.
- Secure parking brake: with an easily accessible activation button on the brake lever, it keeps the tricycle stationary when parked so you don't need to worry about it rolling away!
- Supportive steering stop: tricycles are sensitive to large steering angles, so this simple device avoids over-rotation of the front fork, increasing stability.
- Low maintenance front hub brake: enclosed and sealed from all weathers, hub brakes are long-lasting and robust and provide excellent stopping power come rain or shine.
- Non-slip pedals with toe clips and straps: to keep feet securely in place when pedalling, helping to transfer your pedal-power more efficiently.
- Tyres with puncture protection: With a tyre tread profile that offers good grip and quiet running. Also featuring an effective puncture protection belt made of natural rubber.
- High-comfort padded saddle: with elastomer springs to help cushion impacts.
- Quick-release seatpost: Allows saddle height to be adjusted and secured with ease and without the need for tools.
- Short 150mm cranks: Shortened cranks (standard cranks are 170mm) give a more natural pedalling action for shorter riders or those with restricted leg movement. Appropriately, the set comes with a smaller chainwheel, so it also lowers the gear range. Full-length cranks can be fitted at a later date if necessary.
- Fully-enclosed protective chain case: protects you from greasy oil marks and helps to reduce wear on the sheltered chain and components from grit and water.
- Single, low fixed gear where cycling stability is more important than top speed: An effective gear system where ease of pedalling is more important than speed, with the gear range lowered by a third.
