The KLIMAX Foldable Fairing for trikes from HASE BIKES

Just in time for the Eurobike: HASE BIKES has finished work on a new version of the Foldable Fairing for its delta trikes and integrated a Smartphone Mount. The results: more user-friendly, easier to adjust, and nevertheless more affordable!

In spite of the numerous advantages to triking, a rider in a recumbent seat is more exposed to the elements. This is why, for many years now, HASE BIKES has been offering an ingenious foldable fairing for use with almost all of its trikes. For 2018 the specialized bike manufacturer will be introducing a redesigned version of the KLIMAX Fairing. “Our main goal was to make the fairing even more robust and easier to use,” said developer Marec Hase, who, together with his team, completely reworked numerous details of the foldable trike hood.

Just as easy as putting the top up on a convertible
One step is all it takes to snap the folded KLIMAX fairing into the new, bow-shaped mount over the front wheel. When the base is inserted, two hooks lock securely into the mount to prevent the fairing from swiveling and make the attachment even more secure. Once the fairing base is mounted, the sides are spread open, and the fairing is then unfolded like an umbrella. The outer rods of the fairing click into two guide rollers beside the seatback. A small catch hook closes automatically, locking the fairing into a closed position. “We wanted to make the process of getting into and out of the seat under the fairing as intuitive as with a car,” explained Marec Hase, who is known for his high standards of design.

And the same applies to the adjustment: the guide rollers for the fairing rods can be pushed up and down to adjust the KLIMAX Fairing precisely to the height of the rider.
And crosswinds are no problem at all: two transverse struts under the fairing keep it in shape, even in heavy rains. The material itself – PU-coated Ripstop nylon – is a high-tech, light, and waterproof fabric that resists tearing. With any type of rain gear, the seams are always the problem areas. This is why the new KLIMAX has even fewer of them, making it more wear resistant for long-term impermeability. And the optimized shape of the fairing does an even better job of protecting the rider from road spray. But a word of warning: the sleek design may attract even more envious stares than in the past …

Smartphone on board
What do trikers need in any weather? Their smartphone: be it as a cycling computer or for communication and navigation. This is why HASE BIKES is now offering a Smartphone Mount as an accessory for the fairing. In the rider’s field of vision, right under the upper edge of the KLIMAX Fairing, the smartphone looks like a minimalistic dashboard: and is also protected from the rain. Once the mount has been attached, the phone can be inserted with a single step. Regardless of the smartphone model: the mount adjusts to the size, absorbs vibrations, and holds the phone securely. The angle is also adjustable so that the display can be positioned to suit the height and posture of the rider.

The price of staying dry is lower than ever – HASE BIKES is offering its new KLIMAX Fairing for a lower price than the previous version: a mere € 495. It can be used with any trike from HASE BIKES except the TRETS and TRIGO UP.
