Performer Cycles
Recumbent Trike Range Overview:
The 6 trikes in the Performer range – have you covered.
The JC20
Is a solid choice whether it’s your first trike or an upgrade. You’ll certainly not find a better value for money trike of this quality anywhere else. You’ve got a range of options to choose from so you can fit your budget according to your needs. The FRP (Fiber Reinforced Plastic) seat with cushion mesh is standard. You also have the option of a full mesh seat if that’s your preference.
The JC20 27 speed sports a triple front chainring with a 9 speed cassette. The gear ratios are such that you can get up a very respectable head of steam on the flats and downhill. Shift your gears and you’ll be able to get up very steep climbs on the lowest ratios. The mechanical disc brakes will give you the exact level of control that you need when you need it. The 30 speed option gives you that little bit of extra choice in gear selection along with exposure to more of Shimano’s superb 10 speed Tiagra groupset.
The JC-26X
Gives you rear suspension and a wide range of options across the 27 speed, 30 speed and XT choices. This is a high end trike in a great value-for-money package. The 27 Speed uses the 9 speed Sunrace cassette and the Novela Mechanical Disc Brakes. The 30 Speed gives you Shimano’s fantastic Tiagra 10 speed groupset along with Avid’s powerful BB5 mechanical disc brakes. The X.9 gives you the choice of installing SRAM’s X.9 long cage 10 speed derailleur and TRP’s powerful SPYRE Disc Brakes. Another option, for the same price, is the XT package which basically swaps out the X.9 long cage with Shimano’s XT derailleur.
The Performer Trike-F
A “folding” trike is convenience wrapped up in a neat package. If you live in an urban area and like to get out of town to trike on the trail, this is what you need. Fold your trike, put it in the boot or the backseat and off you go. The 27 speed model will give you all you need to get that triking recumbent grin. The 30 speed has more Tiagra 10 speed goodness included as well as TRP’s powerful SPYRE Disc Brakes.
The Performer Hero
