This is a very well-rounded recumbent trike, it’s quick, handles well, looks great and is very comfortable. What more do you need? With a 1,999 starting point it’s an excellent value and dominates other trikes in its same price range. Of course, it's subjective but in my experience selling trikes I think 1,999 to 2,999 is a sweet spot for many people and this one is super fun!

That trike looks great! I really like the sturdy design. Been waiting over two months now for the build of my own trike to be complete. Darn pandemic supply chain problems! Cannot wait until I can get out there and ride again.
Nice to see Terra Trike upping the game.
Thanks for posting one of the first reviews of the GT. I’m a big guy too at 6’ and 250#, so I liked too seeing someone test ride it that’s not 5’-8” and 145#. 😂
Yes Bill, it's nice to ride a trike that handles and performs well even with bigger riders :)
Excellent review, thanks!
Hi! Is the seat adjustable, as in how upright you can sit? And thank you for the review.
It sure is!
How does it compare to the rambler and the traveler?
The Grab Tourismo would be more like a road bike and the Rambler and Traveler would be more like a hybrid bike. The Traveler is a folder which the others are not.
Is this good on gravel and rough roads, please?
You'd want to run the tire pressure a bit lower to absorb the bumps. A mountain or off-road style trike may be better suited if the roads are very rough.
@@LaidBackCycles Thank you
are you aware of a compatible pedal assist moor for the GT?
Yes, the LBC350 works great on the TT Gran Tourismo czcams.com/video/aLZpLG906nw/video.html

You forgot to mention the improved kingpins and the V-shaped cruciform.
Yes, there are many more things to love about this trike... look for more reviews, tips and updates to come :)
Improved kingpins? How so?
How does it compare to the Rambler for ride smoothness? Which one of the two absorbs the small bumps better?
A longer wheelbase may handle the bumps better. Also if you are in bumpy areas, changing your tires to Schwalbe Big Apples will help.
How high is the set off the ground
15 inches. A little less than a dining table chair.
How do I remove seat so I can transport it in my Prius ?
To gain more height clearance you can remove the rear quick release pins in the seat stays (the bars that connect the seat to the frame) and push the seat all the way back down, close to the rear wheel. If you want to fully remove the seat you will need to remove the quick release pins and you will likely need an 8mm allen wrench to remove the bolt that secures the seat to the frame. If it can fit, I recommend the first option so you don't have to do any wrenching.
What is the back stand you have the back end up with?
Our trikes stands are actually custom built, but I've seen some out there that do the job. Since we put many different trikes up on a stand, it has to be flexible for the different frame configurations.
I use a peice of aluminium flat stock. Bent at 90deg at one end w to holes drilled. I screw it into those 2 small braze-ons on the frame 'heel' behind seat. Super stable for working on bike w rear offground
How does this handle touring loads?
It's great, the chromoly frame give a soft ride and the longer wheel base should make for a smooth ride even when carrying a load.
Класс!!)))
