Important Must Read Warnings,

Safety Information and Riding Tips

This owner’s manual is designed to help you make the most of your Trikke™ cambering

vehicle. Instructions and warnings have been carefully prepared to make your experience

as safe and enjoyable as possible. Use common sense while riding and enjoy your new

Trikke cambering vehicle. Read additional information on page 12.

READ AND UNDERSTAND THE ASSEMBLY, MAINTENANCE AND SAFETY

SECTIONS OF THE OWNER’S MANUAL BEFORE RIDING. ALWAYS FOLLOW

THE INSTRUCTIONS AND PAY ATTENTION TO ALL WARNINGS.

• ALWAYS WEAR PROPER SAFETY EQUIPMENT WHEN RIDING THE TRIKKE

CAMBERING VEHICLE INCLUDING AN ANSI, SNELL, CPSC, ASTM or DIN EN

1078 APPROVED HELMET. USE PROPER FOOTWEAR AND SECURE LACES ON

SHOES BEFORE RIDING.

• AVOID WATER, BUMPS, GRAVEL, SAND, CRACKS, UNEVEN SURFACES

OR OBSTACLES THAT MAY STOP YOU SUDDENLY OR CAUSE YOU TO LOSE

CONTROL. THE TRIKKE CAMBERING VEHICLE IS NOT INTENDED FOR OFF-

ROAD USE. AVOID RIDING AT NIGHT.

• HANDS FREE RIDING CAN BE DANGEROUS. USE BOTH HANDS TO HOLD

THE HANDLEBARS FIRMLY AT ALL TIMES. DO NOT PUSH TOO HARD ON

OR APPLY UNEVEN PRESSURE TO EITHER SIDE OF THE HANDLEBARS. DO

NOT MAKE SUDDEN SHARP TURNS OR APPLY YOUR BODY WEIGHT TO THE

HANDLEBARS WHEN TURNING. SUCH ACTIONS MAY CAUSE THE VEHICLE

TO “JACK-KNIFE” OR TO STOP SUDDENLY, WHICH CAN CAUSE SERIOUS

INJURY TO THE RIDER.

• DO NOT LEAN BACK OR PULL BACK ON THE HANDLEBARS. DOING SO

CAN CAUSE THE RIDER TO FALL OFF THE BACK OF THE VEHICLE POSSIBLY

RESULTING IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.

• POLYURETHANE WHEELS DO NOT PERFORM WELL ON WET PAVEMENT

OR ANY OTHER WET SURFACE. POLYURETHANE LOSES TRACTION ON MOST

WET SURFACES, AND WATER ON THE WHEELS CAN DRAMATICALLY REDUCE

THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE BRAKES. RIDING IN ANY WET CONDITION IS

NOT RECOMMENDED.

• DOWNHILL RIDING IS NOT RECOMMENDED, ESPECIALLY FOR NOVICE

RIDERS. THE TRIKKE CAMBERING VEHICLE IS DESIGNED PRIMARILY

FOR USE ON FLAT DRY PAVEMENT. RIDING ON STEEP HILLS OR DOING

PROLONGED DOWNHILL RIDES IS NOT RECOMMENDED. PROLONGED USE

OF THE BRAKES WILL CAUSE THE REAR POLYURETHANE WHEELS TO

WEAR

DOWN PREMATURELY, DRAMATICALLY REDUCING THE EFFECTIVENESS OF

THE

BRAKES

OR EVEN CAUSING THEM TO FAIL. EXTREME CAUTION SHOULD

BE USED WHEN RIDING ON ANY HILL.

• DO NOT EXCEED THE RIDER WEIGHT RESTRICTIONS FOR EACH TRIKKE

MODEL:

TRIKKE 5 WEIGHT LIMIT 150 lbs. or 66 kg

TRIKKE 6 & 7 WEIGHT LIMIT 200 lbs. or 91 kg

TRIKKE 8 & 12 WEIGHT LIMIT 250 lbs. or 114 kg

Trikke Owner’s Manual

4/05/05

• ALWAYS INSPECT THE VEHICLE BEFORE EACH RIDE AND MAKE SURE

THAT THE HANDLEBAR QUICK RELEASE AND THE FOLDING MECHANISMS

ARE SECURELY LOCKED IN THE PROPER RIDING POSITION. READ THE

ASSEMBLY SECTION OF THE OWNER’S MANUAL FOR IMPORTANT ASSEMBLY

AND MAINTENANCE INFORMATION.

• TEST THE BRAKES FOR PROPER FUNCTION BEFORE EACH RIDE AND

DO NOT TURN THE HANDLEBARS MORE THAN 180ْ. THE BRAKE CABLES

CAN WRAP AROUND THE STEERING COLUMN AND POSSIBLY ENGAGE THE

BRAKES. MAKE SURE THAT YOUR BRAKE CABLES ARE NOT WRAPPED

AROUND THE STEERING COLUMN BEFORE EACH RIDING SESSION. ALWAYS

APPLY BOTH BRAKES EVENLY WITH YOUR WEIGHT DISTRIBUTED EVENLY

OVER EACH REAR WHEEL.

• CHILDREN SHOULD ALWAYS BE SUPERVISED BY AN ADULT. IT IS THE

PARENT OR GUARDIAN’S RESPONSIBILITY TO PROPERLY MAINTAIN AND

INSPECT THE VEHICLE BEFORE EACH RIDING SESSION. THE TRIKKE

CAMBERING VEHICLE IS NOT RECOMMENDED FOR CHILDREN UNDER 7

YEARS OF AGE.

• ALWAYS EXERCISE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN YOU ARE RIDING IN

PROXIMITY TO OTHER VEHICLES, PEDESTRIANS, AND ESPECIALLY IN

PROXIMITY TO CARS IF YOU ARE RIDING ON A STREET. BE SURE TO OBEY

ALL RULES OF THE ROAD.

• DO NOT MODIFY YOUR TRIKKE CAMBERING VEHICLE. ONLY USE

TRIKKE TECH, INC. APPROVED PARTS OR ACCESSORIES. SEE THE LIMITED

WARRANTY FOR OTHER USE RESTRICTIONS.

General Warnings:

• If you do not have the proper tools or ﬁ nd that you are unable to understand the

assembly instructions, have a qualiﬁ ed Trikke dealer assemble the Trikke™ cambering

vehicle for you. If a Trikke dealer assembles the vehicle for you, be sure to read the Riding

and Safety sections of the owner’s manual and watch the Riding and Safety video manual

before riding for the ﬁ rst time.

• Immediately stop riding if you suspect that any part of the vehicle is not functioning

properly. Inspect the vehicle closely to conﬁ rm what the problem is. Contact your dealer or

Trikke Tech, Inc. directly if you suspect that a malfunctioning or defective part is affecting

its safe operation.

• The front wheel is turned exactly 180 degrees to that of a bicycle. Unlike a bike, a

cambering vehicle’s front wheel actually trails behind the fork. Altering this wheel position

will change the intended performance of the vehicle. See the photos on page 4 of this

manual to see the proper manufacturer suggested position of the front fork.

• Riders performing in Trikke Tech, Inc. produced videos and photos are highly skilled

and specially trained professionals. Do not try these tricks yourself or you may lose control

and fall causing serious injury and even death.

• If you did not receive an instructional video in the box, or if the written or video manual

is damaged, please contact Trikke Tech, Inc. before attempting to assemble or ride your

Trikke cambering vehicle.

TRIKKE ASSEMBLY MANUAL

Your pre-assembled Trikke

™

cambering vehicle requires handlebar attachment

front fork attachment for the T6, T7, T8, & T12

wheel attachment and brake

adjustment for the T12, and a quick maintenance checklist before riding. All of the

following information and more can be found on the

www.trikke.com

website.

This owner’s manual is also supplemented by the video Owner’s manual with

step-by-step instructions on the assembly process, how it works, and how to ride.

T12 o

wner

, please refer to the

separate

instruction manual document

specifically for the setu

p, adjustment and maintenance of the disc brakes.

Trikke Owner’s Manual

Step 1: Unfolding the Legs

At the front of each leg there is a folding joint

near the cambering mechanism. Each of the

two joints has a spring loaded bolt action quick-

release mechanism with a notch to allow the bolt

to be held in the open position.

Gripping the arm with your three smaller ﬁ ngers

and your palm, use your thumb and index ﬁ nger

to pull back

(see right arrow)

on the release knobs.

Tightness can occur if there is any lateral pressure

on the bolt. A light rocking motion of the arm helps

to release the bolt. Note that this folding system is

designed primarily to keep the Trikke frame rigid

during riding. Ease of opening and closing is a

secondary design concern,

take your

time to

take your time to take your

develope your own folding technique.

Once free, you can pull the bolt back and twist it

into the holding notch. This notch allows you to

keep the bolt in the open position while you release

the other leg. When both release mechanisms are

open, swing the legs into the vehicle’s upright

standing position.

At this point,

it is critical to release the bolts

from their holding notch

positions

This will

allow the spring loaded bolts to snap back into

their locked riding position.

The same procedure also applies to collapsing

the vehicle. When Trikke cambering vehicles

are new, sometimes the joints are tight. This is

normal, and they will loosen up after some use. If

tightness continues, use some spray oil like WD-

40 to lubricate the joints.

The vehicle should be in its unfolded standing

position in order to attach the handlebars.

Trikke Owner’s Manual

Step 2: Unfolding the W Version

The

version of the Trikke

5, the T5ws,

uses

a different method of folding. At the front of the

Trikke just above the front wheel is the cambering

axle

which has

black plastic knobs on either end.

Trikke Owner’s Manual

4/05/0

Twist the knobs counter to each other to unscrew the axle. Remove the axle without

removing the white bushings. Unfold the vehicle into the upright position to align the

cambering axle holes. Re-insert the axle pushing it all the way through. Screw the end knob

on and tighten ﬁ rmly. The knobs have 5mm hex wrench holes so you can tighten with a

wrench if necessary. Make sure that the 4 white bushings do not slip out of the axle channel.

Repeat this procedure in reverse to refold the vehicle into its ﬂ at storing position.

Step 3: Raising the Handlebars

Raise the steering column by ﬁ rst unlocking the quick

release lever. Notice that there are some height locking

positions signiﬁ ed by round holes down the back of the

handlebar riser tube (not on Trikke 5 models). There is

a spring loaded copper locking pin that snaps into these

holes to provide a second level of safety while riding.

Push the brass pin in to release the steering tube and

telescope the handlebars up to your preferred riding

height.

To attach the handlebars to the Trikke 6, 7, 8 & 12,

ﬁ rst raise the steering column about 5 inches. When

retightening, make sure that the quick release ﬁ rmly

locks the telescoping steering tube.

If the quick release is loose, use the adjustment ﬁ nger nut

to tighten the quick release. Properly adjusted, it requires

a ﬁ rm hand to close.

Step 4: Attaching the Handlebars

On the top side of the handlebar stem you will ﬁ nd

four bolts securing the stem plate

(see photo right)

which you remove using the supplied 5mm Hex

wrench.

Remove the plate, but keep it nearby. To

insure that the whole steering system is facing the

correct direction (in the direction the vehicle will be

traveling), look down by the ﬂ oor where the steering

column is touching the ground. The three inch fork

post has a spring loaded copper pin. Rotate the

handlebar stem until the pin is facing the direction the

vehicle will be traveling. This is important for proper

front fork alignment in Step 6 on page 8.

Trikke Owner’s Manual

4/05/05

Position the handlebars with the brake

cables crossing once behind the steering

column and again in front

(see white

arrows right)

This simple method insures

that the left brake lever actually operates

the left rear brake. If you ﬁ nd that your

brakes are crossing, please start again

and properly mount the handlebars.

Once your brake cables are properly routed you can secure the

handlebars. Holding the handlebars on the bottom stem plate,

replace the top plate and the 4 bolts. With the bars properly

raked forward at about a

45°

angle (

20°

for Trikke 5) to the

steering column

(see photo left)

, center the bars and tighten the

four bolts in an alternating criss-cross pattern.

The photo to the right shows how the plate

should look, with even spacing

balanced front

to rear

between the plates. The gaps between

the plates should be even

(see white arrows

right)

. If the gaps are uneven, you run the

risk of stripping the stem threads. Balancing

the plate with even spacing between the front

and rear of the plates insures that all four bolts

have enough depth in the threaded holes.

(After learning how to ride, you can adjust the handlebar position to better suit your preferred

riding posture, but don’t rock them too far back as to inhibit proper folding. You can also adjust

the brake levers for riding comfort and ease of use)

Note: For all Trikke 5 models there are only 2 bolts. For T12 owners, the four bolts are actually on the front

of the BMX style stem --- not on top.

Step 5: Brake Tension Adjustment

Before turning the vehicle upside down to attach

the front fork on T6, T7, T8 & T12 models, turn the

brake tension adjustment screws as far in or towards

the brake-handle as they will go. The brake tension

adjusters can be found where the brake cables enter

the brake levers on the handlebars. You will actually

adjust the brake cables in step 7 before making ﬁ nal

adjustments, but by doing this step you will optimize

your adjustment capabilities while riding.

Step 6: Attaching the Front Fork

Putting the front fork on in the proper

riding position requires a 5mm Hex wrench

(supplied). First, turn the vehicle upside down

so the fork post

(arrow right)

is aiming towards

the sky. You should do this procedure on a

carpet or soft surface to prevent scratching the

handlebars or foot platforms.

Inspecting the fork post you will ﬁ nd a spring loaded copper

locking pin

(arrows above and left)

. You will also ﬁ nd a hole to

secure the locking pin on the front face of the fork. This pin is

similar to that of a beach umbrella.

Simply align the locking pin with the hole

(arrow right)

and

push the front fork onto the fork post until the top of the fork

and the locking pin meet.

Depress the locking pin and slide the fork the ﬁ nal inch or so

until the locking pin snaps into the hole

(arrow left)

Trikke Owner’s Manual

4/05/05

Step 6 (continued)

Now all you need to do is use the 5mm Hex wrench to

ﬁ rmly

tighten the two bolts

(arrow right)

Leave the vehicle upside down for the next step.

Step 7: Adjusting the Brakes

Your brakes should be set properly at the factory, but we will tell you how to adjust them

for future reference.

T12 Roadster owners should refer to the T12 Roadster Brake

Adjustment Instructions for this step.

For all of the polyurethane wheeled models,

Access the brake system which is under the

foot platforms at each rear wheel.

First, unwind the cable’s tail

(see white

arrow)

. Using the smallest of the supplied

Hex wrenches, release the cable stay. The

cable stay is a barrel shaped object that holds

the cable to the brake pad arm. The

black

arrow

(photo right)

indicates where the

hex wrench access hole is and

black/white

arrow

where the cable stay is. The wrench (gray arrow) goes through the hole and into the

hex nut on one end of the stay (not visible).

Once you have inserted the wrench into the cable stay, turn the wrench to release

the brake

cable but do not allow the cable to slide out of the hole in the stay. For new cables, pull the

end of the cable towards the front wheel

with one hand

which will pull the slack out of the

cable and force the brake pad to touch the wheel. For readjustment of used cables, set the

brake pad to an eigth of an inch from the wheel. Retighten the hex nut on the cable stay and

re-stow the cable’s tail by wrapping it back around itself. (white arrow)

The desired result is to keep the brake pad as close to the wheel as possible without

rubbing. Keeping your cables tuned like this will optimize the operating effectiveness of

your brakes.

Step 6a: Setting the front fender on the T12

The T12 Roadster has a plastic fender or water guard for the front wheel. Before you

tighten down the two 5mm bolts on the T12 front fork, push the fender as far up into the

fork hole as possible and align the fender with the front wheel. Firmly tighten the bolts to

secure the front fork. This tightening will also clamp down on the fender to keep it in a

secure and properly aligned position.

Trikke Owner’s Manual

4/05/05

Step 8: Final Brake Cable Adjustment

Return the vehicle to its upright position and depress the brakes ﬁ rmly several times to

stretch the cables. Properly adjusted in step 7, you will ﬁ nd that the brakes are tight with

little play. Firmly depressing the brakes several times will stretch the cables just enough

so that the pads do not rub on the wheels but offer maximum braking power. After riding

for several hours, check the tension of the brake cables and readjust as needed to maintain

maximum braking power as follows.

If the brake levers depress all the way to the

hand

grip, use the brake cable tension adjusters

(photo right)

to optimize braking effectiveness.

By backing the adjustment screw out you are

actually tightening the cable. This increases

the effectiveness of the brake lever. If you go

too far, however, you can cause the brake pad

to rub on the wheel which will slow you down.

Adjust it as far as you can without any rubbing

and tighten the locking nut against the brake

handle to keep the adjuster from moving.

Follow the illustrations below for the attachment of the T12 rear wheels. You will use the

6mm ends of both hex wrenches supplied with your T12 Roadster for this procedure. You

will also turn the T12 onto its back in order to expose the bottom of the foot platforms.

The best working conditions are with the T12 foot platforms on a table top. First, use the

hex wrenches to remove the axles as seen below in illustration 1.

To insert the axle with washers and spacers in the proper sequence follow these instructions.

You will be working from left to right. See illustration on P.11.

Make sure that there is just one washer on the axle.

Push the axle through the left fork hole so that about 1/2 an inch of the axle is visible

on the inner side of the fork.

Slide the ﬁ rst spacer onto the short end of the axle with the wide portion of the spacer

facing the fork and the narrow end facing the wheel bearing.

Place the wheel in rear fork, inserting the brake rotor into the brake caliper slot as

seen in the above illustration 2A.

Push the axle into the bearing hole. Most likely, the axle will stop about 1/2 inch into

the bearing. The bearing spacer inside the wheel needs to be aligned with the axle.
