Just a glance at the Scorpion lets you know that the stable track and low center of gravity provide secure handling for optimum control at all speeds. The robust wheels are placed further forward for better braking performance. Having both front wheels in your field of view at all times lets you easily avoid road obstacles. A protector layer in the tire protects the Scorpion against thorns, broken glass and other enemies.
The large 26″ rear wheel with its low rolling resistance gives the rider a spirited ride in any conditions Your Scorpion has a door-friendly track width (33 inches) letting you roll your “new-best-friend” through most standard doors. Unless you decide to turn around for another ride, that is. After all, the highly agile speedster only needs a 17’9″ turning circle.
Desire makes the route seem shorter. So does the right position. When riding the Scorpion tadpole trike, you offer minimum wind resistance without hunching over. This makes you quick. And your trips enjoyable.
You’re right on track. Lean back in the airy ErgoMesh seat or the adjustable BodyLink hard shell seat. They are both good for your bottom, your spinal discs, and your family planning. As flexible as life itself, they provide comfortable support for dynamic sprints.
Lean back and relax. The Scorpion makes your commute to work a deeply enjoyable trip. When heading off into the blue, you can finally see the sky again. And can breathe deeply. Could there be any better exercise bike?
Excellent design: The sporty tadpole touring trike Scorpion won a Eurobike Award. The German state of Hessen’s Ministry of Economics and Transport has nominated the sporty tadpole trike for the Design Award of the Federal Republic of Germany.
We charge a flat rate of $369 for shipping via freight in most of the Continental US. We do not ship outside of the US. There are few zip codes in the US that are more expensive - we will reach out to discuss if this is an issue. It’s usually the very rural locations.
Your Scorpion comes 100% fully assembled. We require that all shipped HP Velotechniks be ordered with a boom adjust kit so you just adjust the boom to the proper length, adjust the seat and handlebars to your liking and go for a ride! You can order the adjustment kit with all of the tools necessary to set the proper boom length and then return the kit for a full refund once the trike is set up. Or have us install a kit so that others can ride your trike too!
If you order additional parts with the bike, our website may charge you additional shipping. When we receive the order, we will refund that amount.
The current lead time from HP Velotechnik is 6-8 weeks. It takes time to build your perfect bike.
