The first order placed with ICE was actually with the previous owner (Peter Ross) and the company was named TRICE. I'm thinking that was 14 years ago. The draw for me was that it was a design that could be packed into a small carton, so having one shipped from the UK was not exorbitant. Perennial Cycle has kept up that relationship every year since.

Chris and Neil took over shortly after we got our first trike and within a short time they had made so many improvements on the original model that they changed the name to ICE (Inspired Cycle Engineering) and kept improving the design as well as the manufacturing process.

Over the years I have often told customers that I don't think the guys at ICE sleep and that is how they can keep making so many improvements to their trikes. I've also said that they certainly know what to do when they get out of bed in the morning...Go To Work...and Stay Late.

All their hard work appears to be paying off in a big way for them. The trikes are extremely polished and any resemblance to the original model is only visible to a highly trained eye (mine might be the only one).

Several years back ICE was battling for the #1 position in the trike world with a few other manufacturers and I felt like they were #1. I told this to Neil and he said there's only one direction to go if you are on the top. At the time I thought he was saying "down", but I was wrong.

Congrats to the team at ICE. It's a great team with tons of integrity and a desire to make the best.

Last year ICE saw an 80% increase in sales. This is due to a number of things lining up for them, but the key feature was their product.
Here's a video from ICE that will give you a feel for the company:
