Product Description
The Trikke 12 Roadster with its customized, high-pressure pneumatic tires and disc brakes eats up bad road and pushes the edge of the T8 carving envelope times 10. Carve deeper and ride harder with confidence and control, and tackle hills like a giant slalom skier tackles the mountain. Perfect for athletes wanting to combine a fast and exhilarating ride with excellent cross-training for endurance, balance, agility and strength. If you want the ultimate cambering vehicle that you can take to the limit, this one's got the girth. Also, because of its larger wheels and heavier frame, you'll find that it takes less turns to keep your speed essential for anyone interested in long distance carving. It's the best ride we currently offer; not for the faint of heart. Suggested Weight Limit 250lbs

Combining the look of a scooter with the feel of a skateboard or snowboard, the Trikke T12 three-wheel cambering vehicle offers a whole new way of propelling yourself on wheels.
The T12 is equipped with the company's patented 3CV technology, which provides a stable three-point platform for the rider. To go forward, simply lean (or carve) into the turn as you would on a bike or snowboard. The entire T12 will lean with you, creating enough momentum to cruise around the campsite, neighborhood, or pretty much anywhere else. Not only is it a blast, but it's also a great workout, too, keeping your legs and arms active with every movement.
 The T12 propels forward as the rider leans into turns. |
The T12 is designed for more advanced riders, with customized, high-pressure 12-inch pneumatic tires and disc brakes. The features make the T12 the ultimate carving vehicle for distance riding and downhill carving. Plus, the T12 offers a large wheelbase that allows you to maintain speed with fewer turns. It's fast and exhilarating, making it an ideal choice for active riders and athletes. Other construction features include an aircraft-grade aluminum frame, brake levers with a parking lock, and height-adjustable handlebars.

6 of 6 people found the following review helpful:  With the Trikke T12, "exercise fun" is no longer an oxymoron., By Squirrelgod "Squirrelgod" (Houston, TX United States) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Trikke Tech T12 Series 3-Wheeled Carving Scooter (Metalic Green) (Sports) Riding my new Trikke T12 is the only exercise routine I have found that I can stick to because I actually look forward to doing it every day. I think the thing that makes riding the T-12 so fun is that it provides a rewarding riding experience where (unlike riding a bicycle) as you ride the Trikke, you are challenged to adapt and improve your riding technique. you use all of your muscle groups to balance and propel the vehicle so it gives a full body low/no impact workout. It DOESN'T make you contort your neck into an unnatural position, fatigue your neck/shoulder muscles or leave you saddle sore. You don't have to throw your leg over a high part of a frame or risk a related painful injury. To mount the T12, you just grab the handlebars, step up 13 inches onto the foot pads, and you are ready to go. In short, you can ride it because it's fun, and while you're at it, you also happen to get an excellent workout. The quality of design and construction is evident.

Though I liked it, it seemed too much like a "toy", and I wanted something more substantial. Everything that I read (Trikketalk, etc) led me to believe that the T-12 was the "Cadillac" of the Trikke line - smooth, easy, quiet and fast. This is NOT the case - in fact, it is vastly less efficient than my old t-8 ("less efficient" = requiring greater energy expense to cover the same distance). This makes it substantially harder to ride than the t-8. It is just plain exhausting! I checked to make sure that there wasn't a problem with my particular T-12. I checked that the bushings were not too tight, OK, that the brakes weren't rubbing, OK, that I had the recommended 75psi front and 80psi rear, OK - everything checked out fine, so I posted my concerns on Trikketalk. The general thrust of the replies is that the T-12 really is bigger, slower and harder to get going than any Trikke in the line, and I...Read more 5 of 5 people found the following review helpful: TRIKKE T-12 ROCKS!!!, By This review is from: Trikke Tech T12 Series 3-Wheeled Carving Scooter (Metalic Green) (Sports) I've got an original Trikke T8, a T78 Deluxe and now... a Trikke T12. Granted, the ride is different on all of them, but the Trikke T12 really is the "Cadillac of Trikkes."
The T-12 has a super smooth ride and a is a great full body, low impact workout. I find that the T12 uses different muscles than the T8 and T78 Deluxe, so if I'm going for the maximum workout, I'm taking the T12. Yes, it's slower to get moving on at first, but its much faster once you get moving which makes it a thrilling ride standing 13 inches off the ground! If I had to choose one between all of my Trikkes, hands down, I'd keep the T12. |
