HP Velotechnik Scorpion FX20.

The Comfortable, Foldable Travel Trike.

The streamlined and relaxed seating position on the Scorpion FX ensures a fast pace.
With seat angle is adjustable from 46-54°. The seat height of 35 cm (14″) was chosen by HP Velotechnik for the Scorpion fx touring trike.  It\’s significantly higher than the sportier Scorpion to provide a really good view in road traffic.

The rearward curved frame cross member

Allows the driver to get close to the seat and get on and off with ease.  Even when stopping at traffic lights, the driver no longer has to take the feet off the pedals.  They\’re positioned at the height of 38-46 cm (15-18″) and can accelerate powerfully from the comfortable recumbent seat.

The frame suspension with 8.5 cm (3.5″) travel works unaffected by pedalling forces thanks to HP Velotechnik’s proven \’No Squat\’ design.  The stiff aluminium frame creates a very low weight for tricycles from 16.5 kg (36.5 lbs).
The frame and seat are adjustable in length to suit riders from 1.57 m to 2.00 m (5’2″– 6’7″) tall.

Wider is better:  The wider the track, the greater the tipping stability and consequently, the faster your recumbent trike can corner.  In addition, a wide track allows for a greater steering angle for a small turning circle.   So that your Scorpion FX still fits easily through doors and gates.  HP Velotechnik has developed narrow hubs for a low overall width of just 83 cm (33″).  (You want it even wider?  The maximum track width and the highest seating position of our Tadpole trikes can be found with the models:

• Scorpion plus 20
• Scorpion plus 26
