AlphaBENT / PBW is a Premium Catrike, ICE, and HP Velotechnik dealer with a huge selection of recumbent trikes in stock -- including models by Greenspeed, Hase, and Terratrike. Test-ride any of the dozens of models of trikes in the shop. We started selling recumbent trikes years and years ago when the only trike available was the Greenspeed GTO. We've been serving Northern California throughout th
e Trike Revolution adding more and more models and brands as they have become available. We've been with Big Cat HPV since the beginning when all the Catrikes were just two: Road and Speed. Now, we are a Catrike Concept Store serving our customers and offering test-rides of every Catrike that exists: Pocket, Trail, Villager, Road, Expedition, 700. We even have the hard-to-find Musashi. We started selling cycles by Inspired Cycle Engineering as soon as they were available through dealers. We've been with ICE through the hardtail years, the suspension years, and now the folding years. You can find all three styles of Sprint and all three styles of Adventure and the Vortex, in stock and available for test-rides. We've been offering HP Velotechnik trikes since there was nothing but a Scorpion. Now, we have the Scorpion FS26, Scorpion FX, Scorpion FS, Scorpion, and Gekko FX models as well as several other recumbent bikes by this German manufacturer. We keep trikes by Hase Spezialraeder on-hand including a Kett-Wiesel delta trike, Pino tandem, and sometimes a Trets trike trailer-chariot. We keep trikes by Terratrike / Wizwheelz on-hand and are a Premier Dealer for this company's products. In short, if you are looking for a recumbent trike, look no further. We have dozens of different models on-hand to evaluate: essentially, every major model by every major manufacturer in the world. It's a tough decision. There are many factors to consider. And, there's comfort, which you can not know without trying. Plus, we have true experience, and nothing substitutes for that. Our store in open in Sacramento six days per week and is easy and convenient to reach from freeways, in-town, or from the American River Bike Trail. In Chico, we gladly work with you by appointment.
