Tandem Recumbent Bikes, Trikes, and Crank Forward
Descriptions and Photos
The Power of Two!
Tandems bring two people together on one bike. The benefits are that two people of differing performance can be together on a ride without waiting for one another, can enjoy conversation easy, can break the wind of only one bike resulting in faster cruising speeds. At Angletech we bring you the broadest range of tandem choices. Recumbent tandem bikes from Rans, recumbent trikes from Greenspeed and Terratrike, side by side from Pacific, upright/recumbent blend from Harmony, and Crank Forward tandems from Rans.

 |
RANS has built what has become the most favored recumbent tandem designs available starting with the Screamer in 1995, and joined by the Seavo in recent years. Truss type frame designs for torsional rigidity, world class seating choices, and excellent handling make these tandems a long term choice.

 |
SEAVO brings ultimate performance to the recumbent tandem. Dual 26 format helps
speed via better aerodynamics, better climbing position, friendlier
handling, and the gyroscopic pull of the 26" front wheel.
The B39 cockpit position is more open and relaxed. Alternatively, we also
offer the B37 which gives a more outboard angled grip zone for a better
turning radius. The stoker seat sits
lower and raises the crank position relative to the hips. This engages more
of your back provided better power in all situations, and is easier reach to
the ground.
The efficient frame design, light, carbon pan fold flat seats, and aluminum
fork bring the weight down to 44 pounds.
Available with 2
S&S couplers as the TR series, the Seavo can separate into 2 pieces for easier transport.
Transit cases are also available with roll up
capability at your destination.

New 700C wheel specs.
For ultimate speed, look into our ANGLETECH SEAVO XHO 700
with disc brakes, Rolf-Prima Tandem
wheels, carbon tandem fork, and high performance rubber. For
touring at a faster clip
than the 26 version, look at the HO D-700.

WHY WE SPEC THE WAY WE DO
From our Rocky Mountain perspective, 203mm disc brakes prevent heat
build up on the rims, the hand built wire wheels are lighter, rider
smoother, and are quieter than composite wheels, though we are happy to
offer Aerospoke wheels. Hubs and bottom bracket bearings are Phil
Wood, the best in the world, and the Ritchey WCS headset is a lifetime
component.
For self contained touring you can also choose a disc front, primary rim
brake rear with Arai drum brake for long descents where you want to run the
brake long to maintain a certain speed that only the Arai brake can deliver.
The Terracycle idler system completes the mission for the best bearing
systems.
All tandems are assembled, road tested and sized, then shipped to you with a short list of steps to make ready to ride.

SCREAMER
A great design that
provides those great Rans seats, reasonable size, and a triangulated
frameset to keep the wiggles out at at 47 pounds! The Screamer has a
level crank position out front, and low position at the rear. Available with 2
S&S couplers to break your Screamer in two as the TR series.
Transit cases are also available with roll up
capability at your destination. We feature the MEKS carbon fiber / 7075
aluminum suspension fork standard on our ANGLETECH GLXD SPEC model.
Further, our GLX27D has disc brakes front and rear, plus all crank and wheel
bearings are Phil Wood, the best. Independent Pedaling System available at
no additional charge on the GLXD. |
| Dear Kelvin,
"The Screamer TR
is a great bike. My wife and I as well as our kids are really enjoying
it. My wife says it seems "illegal" to enjoy riding as much without the
sore butt, neck, and hands. It is her first experience with a recumbent.
She is sold! We are planning a trip to Prince Edward Island with the
Screamer for a 10 day tour. Thanks again."

RANS TRIZARD In performance trikes, tadpoles have come to dominate the market. Rans background is in delta trike design, and Randy decided there was room to develop a low / fast delta design to run with the tadpoles.
The Trizard has a long wheelbase with a 9" seat height and the very comfortable Hoagie euro style seat for a low profile to the wind as well as a more vertically angled Sling Mesh option. The crank is also friendly to the low into the wind profile as well as in a powerful position for climbing leverage.
Seating is in a fixed position with a minor 2" adjustment range, keeping the handling dynamics good for any size rider. The frames modular construction allows the front portion of the frame to slide along the "boom tube" to bring fit into perfection. Another benefit of the modular construction is the Trizard can be completely dissassembled for travel and transport.
Underseat steering for easy in and out and that unobstructed view of the world. Quick release wheels all around finish off the Trizard.
Connect 2 Trizard's together and you have a TRIZARD DUO tandem! Independent cadence, easy switch from tandem to individual trikes, lower priced than a dedicated tandem trike format. |

HARMONY Semi-Recumbent tandem.
In its 5th generation since 1983, the original alternative tandem design,
the Harmony, offers a number of benefits over the traditional road tandem.
Stoker moves from second to first class.
Instead of being in the back, the Harmony design moves the stoker to the
front with an unobstructed view and a comfortable mesh seat. The hands free
riding position also facilitates map handling, hand signals, picture taking,
or snack preparation.
Independent pedal cadence.
The stoker may also choose his or her own pedal cadence, or stop pedaling
if desired. This is accomplished in the gearing at the Cadence Modulator.
Communication.
Communication with the pilot is enhanced by having both riders’ heads
closer together.
The captain is not left out of the benefit package either:
Improved handling and control.
Handling the Harmony at low speeds is easier and lighter than an upright
tandem. High speed handling is also remarkable stable and secure. The feel
of the Harmony is very much like a loaded touring single bike, so learning
the bikes’ handling characteristics takes little time. |
 |
Versatility!
You can ride with any size of adult, or a KidFrontSystem which accommodates
riders down to 4 years old. Special needs applications work great here with
the Handcrank or Hand/Footcrank stoker option. This means that the Harmony
will be used more often, and by more people than a traditional tandem.The Harmony is such an integrated design, that it is impossible to
separate individual features and say "there, that’s what makes it tick."
Whether it is functional, structural, mechanical, or interpersonal, all of
the features of this cycle work together to give you a great riding
experience. |

KIDZ TANDEM
The KIDZ TANDEM is all about spontaneous fun with a favorite young person. Participation together in pedaling, the panoramic view, and conversation.
With handling like a single bike, the KIDZ TANDEM requires no special skills to operate the cycle. Chose from ATB or Road format.
Then there are the multiple personalities. Because of the quick release Kidz Cockpit out front, you can slide in a cargo basket for shopping, a infant style seat for the ultra young family member, the recumbent seat for ultra support and comfort, or even make it the favorite ride for the canine in your life.
Finally, combine metaphor's with the KIDZ TRIPLET version. 2 kids, 1 kid and the pup, 1 kid and the grocery haul in the basket, etc .
A surprisingly reasonable price, nice build quality, and quick delivery times make the KIDZ TANDEM an easy decision.
