UPGRADED THREE WHEELS OF MAGIC

2025 vs 2026–27 — Component Comparison

Side-by-Side Comparison

Summary of Key Upgrades

Drivetrain modernization: the biggest change is the move from a 3×8 setup to a cleaner 1×10 system built around a Shimano CUES SL-U6000-10R trigger shifter and a single-ring Prowheel crankset with chainguard. This simplifies shifting, reduces front-derailleur maintenance, and widens the usable gear range.

Ride quality and control: the rear coil-over shock now offers adjustable preload, the steering uses refined, adjustable tie-rod ends, and updated frame-mounted idler pulleys improve chain routing on the long recumbent chainline.

Rider touchpoints: upgraded round folding mirrors and sturdier alloy platform pedals improve visibility and grip.
