ICE news for the second half of 2021
Posted by Jason Harris on
A few days ago we received an email from ICE trikes, exclusively for dealers and with instructions to keep the content embargoed until today.
And it comes loaded with very interesting news for ICE lovers, especially those who are considering getting a new one.
New intense green color
For the first time in a few years, the Adventure will be available in a second color. Personally, I already loved that intense blue, so pretty and cheerful, but I think I'll like the intense 3ike green even more.
To celebrate this chromatic harmony, we will not only have a test unit at 3ike, but also with at least one unit in stock for immediate delivery. So you don't have to wait, especially at this time when the manufacturing of new units is taking so long. Of course, the immediate availability has the counterpart that you cannot select the components but rather it is a closed configuration . (yes you can add accessories).

Enviolo Automatiq
The second news, less flashy but with greater implications, is the availability of the Enviolo Automatiq among the configuration options for motorized trikes . Enviolo is the simplest, most comfortable and easy-to-use gear system for any user profile, even without experience.
Enviolo Automatiq is an improved version of the Enviolo, which continuously detects the pedaling cadence to always maintain the most appropriate gear, according to the speed and effort of the cyclist.
It is the bike equivalent of an automatic car: you just have to pedal to move forward and brake to stop. The intelligent Enviolo system takes care of the rest.
What are their characteristics?
- Available for Adventure 26, Adventure HD 26 and Sprint X 26 models, motorized with Shimano Steps.
- Fully automatic. Joint installation with Shimano Steps E6100 and E8000.
- Selection of the optimal gear for any circumstance.
- Select the cadence you're comfortable with and Enviolo will adjust the pace.
- Designed to change gears under pressure, there is no need to ease pedaling to adjust the gear and there is no loss of power.
- 380% gear range (equivalent to a single chainring gear system with 11-42 cassette).
- The easiest to use and almost completely silent gear system.
- Simple interface and possibility of control via mobile phone with wireless technology.
Higher capacity battery
From now on, when configuring your ICE trike with electric assistance, you can choose between the standard 504Wh battery or a 630Wh battery (equivalent to 17.5Ah) to expand your range of action. And not only that, you can carry a second battery mounted on your mesh seat, whatever the version.
