In just a few simple steps, it only takes a minute for you to fold up your Scorpion fs 26 into a space-saving package with dimensions of 123 × 83 × 62 cm. If you remove the wheels as well, the dimensions reduce even further to a compact 93 × 74 × 54 cm. Even with the luggage rack and fenders attached, the Scorpion fs 26 can still be folded up without removing the wheels. And the chain? This rotates around its own axis and otherwise reliably remains where it should be, guided by the flexible chain guard tubes.
Long wheelbase; clear contours; large, smooth-running wheels; elegantly integrated independent suspension: The dynamic appearance of the Scorpion fs 26 leaves a lasting impression.
Even your first look at the Scorpion fs 26 will get your pulse racing. The powerful 26-inch rear wheel and striking chassis suspension make it unmistakably clear: This speed trike is hungry for asphalt and adrenalin! But the succinct design features also provide impressively stable road holding and make it extremely easy to traverse obstacles.
The best conditions for exciting trips are therefore at your fingertips. The advanced steering geometry (ASG) system enables you to control the trike smoothly and precisely and gives it a small turning circle despite the wheel size expanding the distance between the front and rear axles. The Scorpion fs 26s long wheelbase also offers a notably smoother ride, more safety, and greater ride pleasure – size matters!
The entire chassis is designed using HP Velotechnik's "No-Squat suspension" concept and transmits all of your drive energy to the road without any loss of power. In return, you enjoy complete comfort – so that you can lean back and relax while dynamically accelerating, even on rocky roads.
