Catrike 700 quick facts, per Catrike

Seat height: 8.5 inches
Seat angle: 25 degrees

Frame: Catrike vertebrae spaceframe
Length: 82 inches

If you used to ride a road bike and your back or neck said no more, this is the trike I'd put you on.

The rear wheel is what makes it fast. 700c is a road bike wheel. It rolls farther per pedal stroke than a 20 inch wheel and holds speed on the flats. The thru axle keeps it stiff, so your effort goes into the road.

Catrike builds the 700 on what it calls a vertebrae spaceframe, low and aerodynamic.

The seat is 8.5 inches off the ground and laid back at 25 degrees. That's low. Getting in and out takes a little practice. Most riders who want this trike don't mind.

Questions we get

Is the Catrike 700 fast?
It's the Catrike for riders who miss going fast. The 700c rear wheel rolls farther per pedal stroke than a 20 inch wheel and holds speed on the flats.

Catrike 700 vs Catrike All Road: which should I get?
Want speed? The 700. 34 lbs, 8.5 inch seat at 25 degrees, 700c rear wheel. Want comfort on rough paths? The All Road. 43 lbs, 13 inch seat at 51 to 58 degrees, suspension on all three wheels.

Is the Catrike 700 good for a bad back?
If your back or neck ended your road bike riding, the 700 can put you back on a fast ride. But the seat is low and reclined, and getting in and out takes practice. If that's the hard part, try the All Road's 13 inch seat too.

Is the 700 comfortable for long rides?
The seat is low and reclined. If your neck likes sitting up, try the All Road too.

How much does the Catrike 700 weigh?
34 lbs, per Catrike, with pedals, seat pad and mirror on.

How tight does it turn?
Catrike lists a 20 foot turning circle. It's a long trike, 82 inches.

Can I put a motor on it?
Ask us.

Where can I try a Catrike 700?
It's at the shop in Sacramento. Come take it for a ride.

Who the 700 is for

You used to ride a road bike and you liked to go fast. The kit, the long miles, the wind. Your back or your neck doesn't want the upright lean anymore, but the want to move hasn't gone anywhere. The 700 is the Catrike built for that rider. You sit low and laid back, you can still see everything, and you can still chase the horizon. Trading the seat isn't trading who you are. It's how you keep riding fast.

700c Thru-Axle

The rear wheel offers excellent power transfer.

Aerodynamic

The aerodynamic body position and lightweight vertebrae-spaceframe puts the rider in the perfect position to generate power and speed.

30 gears for every hill

A FSA Gossamer triple crank and a 10-speed SRAM GX give you 30 gears, so you spin up the climbs and open it up on the flats.

Frequently Asked Questions
