The entry-level model for the HASE fun class and the chassis for many adaptive trikes

The KETTWIESEL ALLROUND delta recumbent trike lets you experience all the perks and practicality of triking. With its unrivaled cornering stability, high level of safety, and exceptional comfort, the KETTWIESEL offers unparalleled riding fun. And: at stoplights and during breaks, you can relax in your seat while other cyclists dismount.

It’s easy to understand why this spirited roadster is also the perfect chassis for many of our adaptive vehicles and hand bikes. The KETTWIESEL was designed to offer an ideal blend of ergonomics, sportiness, and unlimited versatility.

Perfect adaptability to the rider’s height and weight

The under-seat handlebars of the KETTWIESEL complement its ergonomics. By loosening an Allen bolt, the angle and lateral positioning of each handlebar can be precisely adjusted to the rider and sitting position.

Thanks to the quick-adjust frame, the front boom can be easily and accurately repositioned to suit the rider’s leg length without having to shorten or lengthen the chain. The length-adjustment markings make it easy to remember length settings when switching between various riders.

Any sitting position is possible

​Thanks to the handy quick-release levers, adjusting the angle of the seatback is child’s play. Choose any sitting position: from laid-back and sporty to upright. For transport, just release the seatback to make the trike flat for easy stowing.

Easy wheel removal with QUICKSTICK hubs

If you need to take off the wheels for storing or transporting the KETTWIESEL recumbent trike, then simply loosen the bolt on each QUICKSTICK hub – and they’re off!

Accessories
Poncho Zip up for consummate coziness. With the Rain Poncho, everything from your neck down will remain absolutely dry, even in a downpour. Just snap it onto the Fairing and climb in. Adjust using the magnetic zipper - finito.
Differential 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 for the KETTWIESEL, 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.
Redesigned Foldable Fairing: The new HASE BIKES Foldable Fairing has an improved design and even more functionality. This multi-talented accessory still offers the same reliable protection from cloudbursts, but now features extreme stability in cross winds and the option of adding a Universal Smartphone Mount. Thanks to the new design, its length and height are now extremely easy to adjust.
Fairing Bag You're on tour, and the rain clouds roll in: with the super-slim Fairing Bag, rain protection is always on hand. The bag has a special pocket for your keys and wallet, and it even offers enough additional space to store a jacket for those cooler Hours?
Frame Lock: As a secure option for locking any of its trike models, HASE BIKES is offering a Frame Lock from AXA with a special HASE BIKES mount. It comes equipped with an extra steel cable for securing the rest of the frame.
Roller Bag Maxi Whether as a shopping basket or travel bag: the combination of ROLLER BAG and ROLLER RACK can be rolled effortlessly with a fold-out handle (MAXI version only for EVO and KROSS)
Roller Bag Mini A 50 L capacity - enough to hold a few days´ worth of groceries, supplies for a two-week trip, or all your photo equipment, including tripod. It can carry up to 26 lb (12 kg) and fits on any KETTWIESEL built after 2006.
Roller Rack Once you have a ROLLER RACK, you may never to borrow a hand truck again. It can handle any load up to 33Ib (15Kg): beverage crates, kegs, car tires....
Side Pouch Those "little things in life" can be kept within arm's reach: there's plenty of space for keys and cell phones in the chic Pouch, which attaches easily to the fender - ideal for day trips with no luggage (not compatible with the KETTWIESEL EVO and KROSS).
Rain Cover It keeps the seat dry in the rain. Or it can also be used for covering a seat that has become wet so that the rider's back and legs stay warm and dry. The cover does more than just protect from rain and moisture: it fits perfectly to the seat contours and has a slip-resistant surface to keep the rider in the seat if used as a cover when riding.

When not working at his specialty plant nursery in Frankfurt, ­Wolfgang ­Krämer can be found on the trails with his son, rolling at a relaxed pace through the ­wooded parks of his region, enjoying the “beach-chair ­feeling” in his KETTWIESEL recumbent trike – and of course the fact that his son Alexander is having so much fun on the trike beside his.


It’s the sauce that makes all the difference: no one knows that better than Wolfgang Krämer. He runs a nursery in Frankfurt-Oberrad, selling one main product: a special mix of fresh herbs for making traditional Frankfurt-style green sauce (Grüne Soße).

He has been at the helm of the 500-year-old family business for the past 50 years. And is crazy about his work: “This is my passion,” said the otherwise soft-spoken man enthusiastically, as he explained exactly how his product is used. “The cold sauce is made from two types of sour cream and sometimes hard-boiled eggs but gets its fresh, distinctive flavor and color from seven fresh herbs: parsley, borage, sorrel, chervil, garden cress, chives, and salad burnet.”

And it all comes down to the freshness of the herbs, meaning the dish is seasonal. There are no imported herbs in the Krämer herb mix. This means: a lot of hard work and love go into the product. “Otherwise, we could never do what we do,” admitted Krämer. But what does all this have to do with HASE BIKES?

One of Wolfgang Krämer’s four sons was born with a rare metabolic disorder, CDG syndrome. By the time it was diagnosed, his condition had already caused damage to his brain cells; now 26 years old, Alexander is delayed in his development, has impaired balance, and suffers from speech problems. “He used to ride a normal, upright tricycle, but it wasn’t much fun for him.” And it was unstable. “He would tip over right away on the slightest of slopes.”

And then, by chance, Alexander and his brother, bike-fan Philipp, discovered our KETTWIESEL and TRIX recumbent trikes at a bicycle trade show in Frankfurt. “It was amazing: Alexander knew immediately that it was something for him,” explains Krämer, with delight. Then the gardener looked for a dealer nearby and took his son in to do some test-riding – in secret, without his wife, Doris.

“She would have thought the trike was too dangerous and ruined the whole thing,” he grinned. Krämer was so impressed with the vehicles that he also ordered a KETTWIESEL recumbent trike for himself. Something else that Doris wouldn’t have approved of.

“Now she’s totally thrilled about how well Alexander is doing with the trike.” This is partially due to the fact that father and son ride as a pair. On weekends, they often take rides in a recreational area in Neu-Isenburg, about six miles (10 km) from their home.

“We have so much fun together!” The trail leads almost completely through the woods, with very few intersections, which can be dangerous for Alexander. 

“It’s just magical,” said the gardener. “And the best part is seeing the happy expression on his face. That’s what makes it all worthwhile.”


But he also gets a lot of joy from his own KETTWIESEL: “The trike has such a super comfortable beach-chair feeling!” Since Alexander’s trike has been equipped with electric assist, uphill stretches are also a piece of cake. “Last time, I even had to give up,” admitted the father. “I just couldn’t make it. And there was Alexander at the top of the hill, waiting for me, as proud as Punch!”

​But hills or no hills – on Wolfgang Krämer’s weekend excursions with Alexander, the fun he has on his own KETTWIESEL is like the icing on the cake … or the green sauce on the schnitzel.
