Normally trikes with large rear wheels are unstable due to problems with rear wheel flex and rear end instability. Thus we made special GS rear hubs with a much wider flange spacing than normal, which has resulted in a 26” wheel with more lateral stiffness than a 20” wheel. Plus we have increased the section size of the rear forks. Thus with the longer wheelbase, the GT26 is even more stable at high speed than the GT20. Fitted with Schwalbe Kojak tyres to roll along effortlessly.
For people who want even larger wheels than 26”, the GT26 frame has been built to accept a 700c rear wheel, and the larger 20 inch 451 bsd rims may be used on the front. Thus the special GreenSpeed wide rear hubs, and special front hubs are available for people who may want to build up two wheels sets – one for road use and one for off road use. In fact we have left enough room in the rear forks to fit the Schwalbe Big Apple tires if need be.
2022 colors are Charcoal, Green or Orange
