I came across the Trets when I visited Inspired Cycle Engineering in Falmouth. I had initially bought a secondhand trike to see if it would be viable as an alternative to our second car. It did, and decided to look for a more suitable model from ICE. I was asking them for advice re connecting an Islatrailer bike {£200 ish}. The result of our conversation was that it might cause some difficulties re handling and stability, it was then that they suggested the trets.
On returning home and researching the Trets I was blown away by the price, although I do understand the costs of producing low volume items.
I was very fortunate in finding a secondhand one, and believed that it would retain some considerable value if looked after.
It has been perfect, it handles really well and is very well engineered. My daughter loves it as do the kids and parents who see us daily. I have saved a fortune in not running a second car, and as such the outlay has been acceptable.
It would be nice to think that someone would produce something similar in this country at a more affordable price. if anyone fancies attempting to produce a homemade one then I am happy to help.
