Recumbent meeting 2010 - Uherský Brod Date: 30.07.2010

AZUB folding trike concept Date: 30.04.2010 This concept of folding recumbent trike has been in our minds for a long time and we have racked our brains for hours and had lengthy debates over many of its solutions. And that was true for everyone from the chief Ales through designer Thomas and our marketing department, the boys in the assembly department, and the accountant. Our goal was simple - to make a tricycle, which could be easily passed into the trunk of a car or an elevator, but it could just as easily be passed into the case so that it could travel by train, bus or plane. And all this without any compromises, with still a very stiff frame, a minimum torsion of the rear suspension fork and excellent driving characteristics. It seems that we have achieved amazing results, even though a large and rigorous tricycle testing is still ahead. However, even today, we have many improvements in our minds that will soon be reflected in the prototypes to come and which will sooner or later be presented as a final product. You will be able to follow the news on our blog throughout the year. Y Y
SPEZI 2010 Date: 21.04.2010
We have prepared many new surprises. You will see AZUB ECO trike of course, but also ECO 16, which is untended for shorter riders, children or those who crave for a super compact recumbent bike. ECO 16 will be supplied with an 8-speed hub gear Shimano Alfine with Schwalbe Big Apple tyre-casings and a saddle, which can be adjusted to sizes XS - S – M. It will also be possible to order the bike with a saddle in sizes M - L - XL.
Other enhancements will include AZUB Ibex and AZUB Max on 24? wheels. Finally, also the shorter riders set off with ease for demanding conditions and terrain with a bike, which is primarily intended for demanding missions. Choice of components may be a bit limited and it is possible to reorder only one type of suspension fork. Nevertheless, the selection is really wide and we truly believe that everyone will find what they want in our supply.
You can also find extremely lightweight aluminum wheels R.A.W. at the stand of AZUB. This abbreviation means Recumbent Aluminum Wheels and indicates the material, out of which the wheels are made. And be sure that the spikes are also made of this material. These wheels were developed by REMERX Company specifically for recumbent bikes in order to reduce their weight, offer the necessary dimensions and their combinations as well as improve the overall characteristics of these wheels.
One of the big advantages of all-alluminium construction is the improved heat dissipation during braking. This is particularly crucial for 20" wheels, which use rim brakes for braking. Another aspect that has recently been gaining in importance is the easy recycling, because the wheels are almost entirely made of one type of material, which significantly reduces the cost and complexity throughout the recycling process.
Wheels are currently offered in one color version and can be used both for disc and rim brakes. Rims are decorated in black, nipples and hubs are red and spokes are black. Only one of them is red. The bikes have a total of 24 high-strength aluminum flat spokes, which among others also improve the overall aerodynamics of wheels and also are made directly, which reduces their stress. Nipples feature a large bearing surface.
RAW are available in sizes 20 and 26 and can be combined, giving the chance to upgrade their recumbent bikes even to riders owning e.g. Raptobikes or other FWD (Front Wheel Drive) bikes.
The last novelty will be a great surprise. Currently there is only one photograph. The bike that you can see leaning against the transport case is the size 20" and the case itself will be opened at the beginning of the SPEZI fair.

AZUB trike projects Date: 26.11.2009
Since 2000 AZUB has been developing only recumbent bikes and as a brand it is pretty well known as a producer of durable recumbents which are ready for use in the most difficult conditions which can appear not only on expeditions around the world but also in the city while commuting.
In spring 2009 we started to develop a trike which would fit into our line of recumbents and which would offer all the advantages as our other bikes, like the IPS – Ideal Position System, durability, good design and perfect ergonomy.
At the moment we are working on two different trike projects which we suppose to introduce during the year 2010 when AZUB will celebrate 10 years of recumbent experience. The first one should fit into our ECO line of basic recumbents with affordable price, good quality components and good comfort. We suppose a price around 1700 EUR.
Second project will probably appear later in production, and will fit among our high level bikes like AZUB MAX. Not all features are decided, couple of solutions are still under development, but we are pretty sure that the trike will have unusual system of folding and many other clever features.
This trike project has been developed in cooperation with Technical University in Brno, Czech Republic, with use of the high end computer technologies.
We are very happy that one of the prototypes has already survived a hard test during 8 weeks long expedition around Iceland and western part of Europe. Our friend and actualy also a test rider Brona Nagel (64) cycled over 6000 km during this period and he came back with a fully functional trike and with many ideas how to improve it. At the moment we are working with him to change his ideas into reality and to introduce a perfect trike.
AZUB ECO news Date: 26.11.2009
There are some news in specification of AZUB ECO. After almost a year of production we have a good feed back from our customers and dealers and we have decided to do some changes in specification which are valid just from now. We add a folding stem into a standard as same as high quality Novatec hubs with cartridge bearings instead of ball bearings on Joytech hubs. All that should increase the value of the bike and it has also increased the price a little bit to 949 EUR. But we are sure that a bike with unexpected stable ride, good comfort, Big Apple tyres, adjustable seat position, adjustable seat size, 3x8 gearing etc. is worth such price.
We also suppose to introduce a a smaller version with 16“ wheels in 2010. It will be suitable for smaller riders as same as for kids. The seat will be adjustable into three different sizes – XS, S, M and we suppose a Shimano Alfine as a standard component line.
Picture of ECO still with old specification.
