This idler kit replaces the existing idler on your Trice T and lets you remove all the chain tube. By adding a clamp on mount further back, the chain is controlled enough to make it past the pivot without undue contact. And, by routing the return chain up and over, it's kept very nicely under control as well.

Available in Sport Series with Aluminum cog and ABEC bearings or Elite Series featuring a Titanium cog and Ceramic bearings.

Notes: the chain rerouting done by this kit reduces the ground clearance of the trike by about 2". If this is a concern to you, we recommend you get our Trice Power Idler Kit, which mounts to the original idler mount. Also, since the vertical position of the power side chainline is different, you have to be aware of potential effects on the suspension. To reduce "pogo", or pedalling induced suspension bobbing, it's important the power side of the chain is nearly in line with the rear suspension pivot. If the chain goes too high or too low, pedalling will pull the rear swingarm in and make the trike bob up and down. Since the vertical position of the chain relative to the pivot depends on a number of factors, we want to be sure that people understand how to know if the chainline is right or not. Basically, the clamp on idler mount moves the power side chainline down. This means that you need to be able to adjust your suspension so the rear swingarm swings up more, moving the pivot down to meet the chainline. The amount of pivot movement required, assuming you already have the suspension adjusted correctly, is about 1" to 1.5". To check your suspension adjustment, shift into the middle cog in back. Sit on the trike, put gentle pressure on the cranks, and have someone sight horizontally into the pivot. The chain should ideally be within 1/2" up or down from the pivot. If you can then adjust the suspension so the chain is 1" to 1.5" too high, you can use our idler kit without any pogo. If you have any questions, please contact us. We'll be happy to walk through the whole process with you.
