TerraTrike is a brand of recumbent tadpole tricycles manufactured by WizWheelz Inc.[1] TerraTrike is based in Grand Rapids, Michigan USA.[2][3] TerraTrike's 2013 product line consisted of five models: Rover, Rambler, Tour II, Sportster, and Tandem Pro.[4] Designed for adults,[5] each model has three to five different component levels to meet each rider's needs.
Jack Wiswell and Wayne Oom first discussed the concept of an adult tricycle that Jack had doodled on a napkin at a Christmas party in 1995. Along with former partner Peter Dolan each invested $1,000 from their savings to get things rolling.[6] Their first trike was released in March 1997.[7] In 2005 they hired Mike Kessenich as Production Manager to handle the complexity of their production needs.[8] Their marketing needs were met in 2007 after hiring Jeff Yonker who pushed the business into social media and numerous other non-cycling publications.[9]
Rover – The Rover is TerraTrike's entry level model and is made of hi-ten steel. Introduced in 2009,[10] it was the first of its kind with a higher seat, ease of operation and a low cost. It uses an internal hub and comes in three-speed, eight-speed or auto shifting variable speed. It won Bentrider's "Trike of the Year"[11] in 2011 when it was introduced and claims to have "introduced more people to triking than any other recumbent trike on the market".[12] In 2013 an automatic shifting model using a NuVinci 360 drive named the Rover Auto NuVinci was introduced at their annual Dealer Day expo.[13]
Rambler – The Rambler was introduced in spring of 2011 and is a more featured version of the Rover. It is made from chromoly steel and comes in an eight-speed internal hub, a 24- or a 27-speed version.[14]
Traveler – On October 23, 2013 TerraTrike released their new folding model named the Traveler at their annual Dealer Day expo.[13]
Tour II – The Tour II is the combination of the Tour and the popular Cruiser models. It is made from chromoly steel and features linkage steering, a lower profile and heavy duty components designed around the touring rider.[15]
Sportster – The Sportster model is the lightweight, high-performance model in TerraTrike's lineup. It is made from lightweight anodized aluminium and top-of-the-line components.[16]
