    The new TerraTrike Rambler Recumbent Trike sleek styling, higher and adjustable seat position, and round tubing will make the TerraTrike Rambler surrly one of our most popular tricycles. The Rambler takes the best from our super popular Rover and Tour II models and blends them together for one unbelievable tricycle.

    The new improved Rambler frame has more adjustability and comfort than ever before. Fabricated from super high quality round chro-moly steel tubing and an adjustable aluminum boom, the Rambler's frame is both sleek and stylish. We've kept the same direct steering as our Rover tricycle and comfort-grip style horizontal handlebars. The Rambler has a shortened over all length and wheel base more similar to the Cruiser making it one of our best handling tricycles.

    The new and improved TerraTrike adjustable seat can be recline from 40 to 90 degrees which allows you to set the angle to you personal preference. The seat is 15.5" high, which is a full 5" taller than most tricycles. Similar to our Rover, the seat also slides along the frame which allowing for quick adjustments for riders of similar leg lengths. This Rambler seat is easy to get in and out of and adjusts easily in seconds.

    The Rambler has a very small turning radius, even smaller than most traditional upright bicycles. With the Rambler's small turning radius and nimble handling it makes it a snap for the Rambler to go almost anywhere. The Rambler now comes with a locking brake levers. The locking brake levers help with getting into and out of the Rambler and allows you to park your Rambler on a hill with no worries.

    The Rambler has a capable of carrying 300 Lbs.

    With the new Rambler design we have saved a full 5 pounds over the Rover. The new Rambler model is available in three different component levels:

    Adulttricyclereview.com Review
    The TerraTrike Rambler is being refined even further for 2016. The


    Rambler had a big change in 2015. The most noticeable is removal of the


    frame tube from the main tube to the Kingpin. This is really a very nice


    improvement over the 2014 Ramble and current Rover. The new frame


    design allows the rider to get closer to the seat before they sit down,


    which is easier. With the tube being removed, it also makes it easier to


    get off of the trike because you can get your feet more underneath you.


    So, for the 2016 refinement, TerraTrike will be going away from the two


    bushings used on the Kingpin and replacing the bushings with a lower


    bearing and a delrine upper bushing. We got invited to attend the


    TerraTrike open house for their trike dealers. The event is very well


    run and I can’t say enough good things on how the the TerraTrike’s team


    treats their dealers. We got to see all the new 2016 models and got to


    ride all the new models as well. I was the the most impressed by the new


    Rover with the 24 inch wheels all the way around. I was skeptical at


    first and thought the 24 inch wheel would ride only a little bit


    smoother. I also thought the larger front wheels would hamper the


    turning of the trike. I have to say, I was wrong. I was very impressed


    with the improved ride from the 24 inch wheels. I was also surprised


    that I also had no issue with turning ability of the trike.



    Frame: The frame on the Rambler is a non folding


    Chro-moly steel, TIG welded together and come with a 300 lbs capacity.


    The Rambler frame is a full five pounds lighter than the Rover. Other


    big upgrade is the round tubing over the square on the Rover. The


    Rambler boom is made out of aluminum and is independently adjustable


    from the frame. The welding on the frame was precise and consistent with


    no gaps or inconsistency.



    Paint: Something about the paint on the Rambler just


    looks better than the Rover. I am sure both trikes come down the same


    assembly line, but the paint just looks better to me on the Rambler.


    Possibly, it is just the round tubing over the square on the Rover or


    possibly it is just the cool looking orange color. The paint was nice on


    the Rambler, it was applied evenly and consistently, with no thin spots


    or runs.



    Drive Train: The Rambler comes three ways. First, is


    the eight speed internal hub where all the gears are inside the hub of


    the rear wheel. Second, is called the Rambler Base which is a 24 speed


    drivertrain made by a Taiwan manufacture called Microshift. Even though


    you may not have heard of Microshift, they have been building quality


    bicycle drivetrains for quite a while. The Microshift system is just a


    better value and higher quality than the SRAM or Shimano at the same


    price. Third, is the Rambler GT which is a 27 speed drivetrain and uses a


    mixture of higher quality parts from a number of different brands.



    Brakes: The brakes are ProMax mechanical disc brakes,


    which does a fine job stopping the trike on the Rambler eight speed and


    Base models. If you move up to the Rambler GT, you get a higher


    performance braking system, the Avid BB7. The Avid BB7 brakes are my


    favorite non hydraulic disc brake. They just work so well, are very easy


    to adjust and you can get replacement brake pads at just about any bike


    shop. The brake levers have a parking lock where there is a button on


    the brake lever that you can push and lock the brakes in the on


    position.



    Seat: The seat on the Rambler is a simple nylon with


    straps that hold it securely to the seat frame. The seat fabric has been


    upgraded over the Rover. It is much more breathable and comfortable.


    The Rambler seat height is 15 ½ inches, which makes it one of the


    highest seats on the market and it can be adjusted from 40 to 70


    degrees. The seat slides easily along the main tube of the frame for


    people with different leg lengths. Being able to adjust the seat


    independent from the boom is a nice feature. The rider now has the


    ability to position themselves closer or farther away from the


    handlebars if they choose.



    Ride: The Rambler ride is a nice improvement over the


    Rover. The most noticeable difference was the Ramble is simply smoother.


    It just soaks up the bumps better than the Rover. Other things we like


    are the small turning circle, the Rambler is very nimble and agile. The


    Rambler also has and upright seating position like the Rover. For 2016


    the steering has been improved by adding a bottom bearing to the Kingpin


    and a delrin bushing to the top. This made the steering much lighter


    that the two bushing set up on the 2015 models and older.



    Accessories: Terratrike is one of the best companies


    when it comes to accessories. Terratrike will be including their new


    Heal Sling on all trikes moving forward in 2016. One of the worst things


    that can happen while riding your trike is to have your foot slip off


    the pedal which can cause an accident. In our opinion, just about


    everyone should be riding with clipless pedals and cycling shoes.


    Clipless pedals and shoes are safer and simply more comfortable than


    wearing your standard street shoes. For the people who can not be talked


    into the clipless pedals and shoes, there is the new Heal Sling.


    Terratrike also had a long list of well made accessories like racks,


    neck rest, mudguards, seat pads and mounts for lights and computers.



    In Conclusions: The Rambler is a nice step up from the


    Rover. Even though the seating position is similar, you get a trike that


    is about eight pounds lighter. The Rambler has the ability to go faster


    and is more comfortable than its little brother, the Rover.



    Pros: Easy to get on and off of, breathable seat mesh, and 8, 24 or 27 speed drivetrain to choose from.



    Cons: Direct steering vs Indirect steering. I


    personally prefer the Indirect steering, but both will get you around


    the corner and to your destination. I really did not have any cons with


    the Rambler, about the only thing I could say was possibly pricing on


    the Rambler GT. The pricing on the Rambler GT just did not scream buy


    me, like some other trikes.
