Please note that when I originally wrote this article it was about the JSRL heel slings as the TerraTrike product didn’t exist to my knowledge. I would advise against buying them even though they are less money. They are shown on right in picture below. I caution anyone attempting to buy the TerraTrike ones be aware that they still have to older model they are selling which are inferior to the newer design. They are easier to use and hold ones foot in place better. The ones offered by TerraTrike just work better. I have to say I much prefer them over the JSRL heel slings. A few years later I came across the newer design TerraTrike offers and bought them. I started out using JSRL heel slings which I really liked at first. I also like the idea of being able to wear whatever footwear I choose to including boots in the winter time.

Some shock absorbers use a combination of an external spring and hydraulic oil dampening. Some use plastic elastomers while others use automotive type shock absorbers. Some are rather basic while others are complex. Like most things there are various designs involved in the offering of suspension on tadpole trikes. That being said, I am not naive enough to believe what I think about it all matters all that much to most people. In fact, I truthfully can’t understand the issue as for me riding a non suspension trike is quite comfortable and I have no desire for suspension. For others like myself it is not a concern. For some people having suspension is a must.

We do have a choice … no suspension whatsoever, rear suspension only or full suspension (front and rear). I am talking about tadpole trike suspension. Are you suspended? Of course, I am not talking about the kind of suspension shown here nor am I referring to your driver’s license.
