Selling for my dad since he can't ride it any more. It's been garage-kept. Everything shifts and brakes as it should. There's normal light wear: scuffs on the fenders and pedals, and the seat mesh is clean but used. No crashes and no frame damage.
Why a Trail: it's Catrike's folding 3 wheel tadpole trike. The frame folds in about a minute to 43" x 32.5" x 22", and it fits in an SUV or a large trunk without a rack. It weighs about 37 lb stock. The low, stable tadpole layout (two wheels in front) is comfortable for riders with back, neck, wrist or balance problems. There's no saddle and no weight on your hands, and you can stop at a light without putting a foot down.
Fit:
Rider X-seam (heel to crotch): about 39" to 46", or roughly 5'4" to 6'3". The boom adjusts.
Seat height: 9", and the seat angle adjusts from 45° to 52°
Rider weight limit: 275 lb
Components:
SRAM GX 10-speed rear derailleur, SRAM 11–36 cassette, SRAM bar-end shifters
FSA triple crank, 30/39/52 (30 gears, from low hill-climbing gears to fast cruising)
Mechanical disc brakes on both front wheels; the locking levers work as a parking brake
Schwalbe Marathon tires on all 3 wheels with plenty of tread. The rear is the E-Bike Ready 20 x 1.75.
Breathable Catrike mesh seat
Extras included (over $300 new):
Full fenders on all 3 wheels
Rear rack plus a Topeak MTX trunk bag with fold-out side pockets
Rear red light
CatEye Padrone wireless computer (speed, distance, odometer)
2 Topeak bottle cages and bottles
Storage pouch on the seat back
Dual-sided pedals: flat on one side, SPD clip-in on the other
A new Trail is $3,650 before accessories (catrike.com). Dealer used Trails sell for $2,200 to $2,500. Asking $1,750. That's a fair price and I'm not in a rush. Reasonable offers from people who've seen it in person are welcome.
Cash, or Zelle/Venmo when we meet in person. No shipping and no cashier's checks. If the ad is up, it's available. Please text a good time to see it.
