If you have a need for speed, the TerraTrike Sportster is for you! The aluminum frames offers stiffness and lightweight. The 'SL' option shaves 6 pounds off the overall weight through the use of ultralight components and wheel sets. The 26" drive wheel tops it all off by providing a smooth ride and a little extra centrifugal momentum.
The Sportster brings out the athlete in all of us! Over 20 years of experience in
trike design has gone into the Sportster, and every detail has been finely scrutinized.
This trike accelerates effortlessly, maintains high speeds with ease, and powers
through tight corners. The lightweight aluminum frame allows the rider to
move faster than you ever thought possible.
The Sportster is notable for its perfect blend of performance and usability. With
our direct steering set-up and a standard 26” rear wheel, the Sportster is primed out
of the gate to deliver a high-performance ride. The 6000 series aluminum frame is a
single piece welded structure that provides great efficiency. The seat frame is a
two-position “fixed” seat, making the entire trike more rigid and improving the
handling dynamics. Available in x16 and x20 component levels, as well as the
high-end SL component level.
The Sportster also features a carefully designed premium steering stack and
steering geometry, ovalized chainstays for improved stability and energy transfer
to the rear wheel, and rail-like handling. The Sportster is responsive, lightweight,
and delightfully fast! Sportster owners say it’s a complete thrill to ride,
and we’re sure you’ll be grinning as you blast down the path!

Midline Seat Height
It provides the perfect balance between visibility and aerodynamics for the best performance. The Sportster SL featured the new comfort mesh seat for increased lateral support.
Trigger Bars & Shifter, Shorter Handlebars
Offset ergonomic handlebars accommodate most trigger shifters. Shorter specialized handlebars allow for greater control and response while powering through corners.
One Piece Aluminum Frame
Much lighter and more rigid than steel frames, the one piece frame features stiffer ovalized chainstays. This new improved Sportster also has a narrower track width for a more responsive ride.
Premium Steering Stack & Rapid Axles
Premium steering stack with bushing/bearing combination for smooth steering. Rapid axle allows for easy removal of front wheels.
