David Parrott, in collaboration with Losantiville Kunstwerkhaus and Stress Engineering Services, has developed this Trimtab 3x3 recumbent tricycle. The Trimtab 3x3 is an electric-assisted tricycle featuring a canopy, flatbed storage and seasonally adaptable nylon skins and seating.
The Trimbat 3x3’s simple drive system allows users to lean in order to make it stable and turn on the curves. There are also hydraulic levers that provide assistance at stubborn curves. What's more, there are seasonal versions of the Trimbat 3x3, such as the water-resistant ripstop, the incorporation of breathable nylon for the summer seasons and waterproof insulated nylon for winters.
