  • Overview
    • ICE Optimised Frame

      Overview

      The frame is the heart of any bike, dealing with the irregularities of the road surface, handling external forces and the pedalling forces exerted by the rider. A well designed and constructed frame is key to providing a great riding experience.

      The ICE optimised frame is constructed from a 4130 Chromoly heat treated main section with a 7005 T6 series heat treated aluminium boom and rear end. This provides a stiff platform for efficient power transfer whilst providing a comfortable ride which minimises rider fatigue on longer trips. The frame is fitted with cable guides and braze ons to ensure tidy cable routing and enable riders to attach racks and other accessories.

      At ICE we take great pride in the detail finish of our product, many items of the frame are CNC machined to reduce weight and deliver a product which is truly exceptional.

      In Cornwall, England, where we live and ride, the terrain is hilly. We have miles of quiet twisting lanes; consequently we have developed steering geometry that gives our bikes amazing handling at any speed. In these challenging conditions we also need to be able to climb with ease and stop without fuss so our bikes have an excellent and come with Avid BB7 disc brakes as standard.

    • Hardshell Seat

      Overview

      Our hard-shell moulded composite seat is ideal for the performance minded rider. The seat has been ergonomically designed to provide optimum support to aid efficient power transfer and is fitted with adjustable side wings to provide additional lateral support during hard cornering. A Ventisit open cell breathable cover aids comfort, providing ventilation to the rider’s back. The hard-shell seat allows a wide range of recline angle adjustment. (16 degrees).

    • Rider Positioning System

      Overview

      At ICE we believe that good rides start with a bike which fits well. Our Rider Positioning System (R.P.S) covers a combination of features which we've developed to ensure the perfect rider fit.

      Adjustable Boom and Seat Angle Adjust

      This starts with our adjustable boom which allows the boom to be extended or retracted to fit your leg length. Riders can then adjust the seat angle to one of 5 positions giving 10 degrees of movement, and can be done at the road side in seconds if desired.

      Adjustable Steering Stem

      ICE bikes come with a custom designed and highly adjustable light weight handle bar stem which can be set for height and stop angle. The stem tilts forward for easy access with an adjustable stop system and adjustable friction damping system to control pivot stiffness. Careful cable routing and pivot design allow the stem to be folded right down beside the front forks when the B2 or B2 are folded for transport.

      Two Handlebar Options

      Two types of handlebars are available for the B2 allowing customization to your preferred arm position.

      Straight Bars

      As standard the bikes come with straight bars giving a relaxed arm position and good knee and lower leg during tight clearance during tight manoeuvres. These bars also result in a slightly more compact fold.

      Wrap Around Bars

      Wrap around bars give a straighter arm position and a performance look and feel, however they can restrict leg movement in slow very tight turning.

      Bars can initially be changed from one type to the other without changing cable lengths so experimentation to determine your personal preference only requires 1 extra set of bars. In most cases a test ride with us or at your dealer will quickly confirm your favourite setup.

      Anodised Parts

      Adjustable parts such as the boom and the seat back rest clamp are hard anodised, helping to prevent cosmetic wear under continuous use.

    • 30 second fold

      Overview

      The ICE Compact Fold (C.F) is standard on all ICE bikes. The fold is based around a lightweight heat treated aluminium hinge on the main frame. This allows the rear of the bike to pivot so that the rear wheel fits snugly beside the front wheel. To fold, you simply release the seat by unscrewing the retention knobs and a quick release lever. From here it's just a quick release on the main frame and you're ready to go. Folding the bike is normally completed in well under 30 seconds. The fold has been designed to work with ICE accessories such as our racks and our Performance Tailbox.

      The bike can be made smaller still by removing the front wheel.

      Whether it's putting the bike in the back of the car to visit a local trail or loading it onto a small airplane for the tour of your life, the ICE compact fold provides the convenience and portability you need.

    • The Ride

      Overview

      The B2 features 26 inch wheels, for those who prefer larger wheels, delivering fast exciting cruising and great visibility.

      What's it Like to Ride?

      Fast relaxed cruising is a dream and the bike cuts through the air thanks to the higher bottom bracket and the seat angle recline available. Rough roads are easily handled with the 26" wheels rolling smoothly over the bumps. Visibility is the great advantage on the B2, not so much being seen but being able to look around and enjoy the view especially in traffic or country lanes due to the higher vantage point.

      The B2 is also good for riding with others on conventional road bikes as the riders heads are at a more similar height.

  • For shorter riders we can supply a front chain-set with 152mm cranks in place of the more standard 170mm. These cranks come with alloy CNC machined 22/32/44 tooth chain rings on a 64/104 - 4 arm spider. The rings are smaller than those used on the standard chain-set we use and hence give a more appropriate lower gear spread. Short cranks give greatly improved comfort for shorter riders and are recommended for those under approximately 5'4". They are essential for riders under approximately 5'2" to give comfort and proper fit on the trike. Please see Trike Size page for more information.
