Accessories

SHOW

Safety Belts: Safe seating
Shoulder harnesses and lap belts gently secure riders with motor disorders to the recumbent seat. The harness is also an excellent safety option for children in the front row.
LED Turn Signal System: Show the way
Even more passive safety - and not only for people with handicaps. The batterypowered Turn Signal System is operated intuitively with the simple touch of a button. And with its inconspicuous looks, it blends right in with the design of your trike.
Differential: Power for two
It's the invention that made the car possible: the differential. And on the KETTWIESEL, it's the final ingredient for ultimate riding fun, especially on loose gravel or sand. Specially designed by Marec Hase, the Differential transfers the pedal power to both rear wheels. It shows its true colors on rough terrain or muddy slopes, where others skid out.
Holder for Walking Sticks: Always with you
Just place the walking sticks or cane in the holder, secure them with the clamp, and hit the road. Multifunctional. Fits tubes 5/8"-21/3" (15-60 mm) in Diameter.
Safety Belts: Safe seating
Shoulder harnesses and lap belts gently secure riders with motor disorders to the recumbent seat. The harness is also an excellent safety option for children in the front row.
Headrest: Stable backing
Craving a little extra support? The flexible Headrest makes triking even more enjoyable. Lean back during pit stops and soak in some rays.
Lowrider: Low and be held
Even more space for your luggage and supplies on tour: our Lowrider shifts more weight onto the front wheel without affecting the handling. Major advantage over standard luggage racks: lots of space between the pedals and Panniers!
Open Aheadset Cap
Makes it possible to attachany commercially available bicycle stemto the front fork.
Ortlieb bag: You'll never leave home without it!
The Ortlieb Rack Pack keeps groceries fresh and dry-cleaning dry. One-hand closure thanks to practical magnetic snaps - exclusively from HASE BIKES. With shoulder strap and carrier handles, it's just as handy for toting gear on foot.
Rearview Mirror: Eyes forward?
An extra portion of safety: vibration-free, infinitely and easily adjustable. Can also be mounted on the right upper edge of the Foldable Fairing. Goodbye blind spot!
Side Pouch: Packs a bunch
The Side Pouch safely stores small, every day objects within arm's reach: with plenty of space for your keys, driver's license, business cards, and cell phone. Fastens effortlessly to the fender - ideal for short trips without the Luggage Bag. Standard with 2K and 5K.
Spoke Guards: Safety can be stylish
Many of us know them from wheelchairs: Spoke Guards keep fingers out of the wheels. But they also look sporty, weigh practically nothing, and are rattlefree - a very important consideration.
Universal Mounting Bracket: Clever clamp
Information is everything, especially with the miles flying by under your seat. If you are fond of facts and figures: the bracket can be used for mounting any type of bike computer or GPS unit. Or? Fits 5/8"-21/3" (15-60 mm) tubes.
Universal Coupling: Get hitched!
This multifunctional coupling will hitch as easily to your cargo trailer as to the TRETS or a child trailer. And a true tandem can be created by attaching the fork of a second KETTWIESEL. Also Weber and BOB Yak systems: just hitch and go!
Adapter for Universal Coupling: Hitch and go!
This adapter can be used on the LEPUS for attaching the Universal Coupling, which can handle anything: a cargo trailer, the HASE BIKES TRETS, KETTWIESEL, and TRIX, or any child trailer with a Weber coupling.
Seatback Extension: Comfort plus
The HASE BIKES Seatback Extension can be used for extending either the seat or the seatback by 2?" (7 cm). More space - more comfort!

The lithium-ion battery (24 V and 9 Ah) is easy to remove for charging (approx. 4½ hours, up to 700 charge cycles) - but lockable for theft protection. The motor pushes with 180watts - making it worth its weight of 15 lbs (7 kg) in gold.
