What is the SD Motion Trike?

Built for wherever you want to go.

The SD Motion Trike is a high-performance, joystick-powered wheelchair built for the life you want to live. Equally at home on woodland trails, gravel paths and rough ground as it is on the pavement, in a shopping centre, or at a family day out.

Built on the Mountain Trike frame and powered by SD Motion's front-wheel drive system, it goes where most chairs can't — without limiting you to just one kind of terrain.

Performance

Suspension you can feel.

The SD Motion Trike is equipped with RockShox air shock absorbers — designed to smooth out ruts, tree roots and uneven ground, absorbing harsh jolts to keep your ride stable and comfortable. Unlike standard metal coil shocks, the air-based system can be fine-tuned using a high-pressure shock pump to match your exact weight, riding style and the terrain you're on. The result is noticeably reduced vibration through the seating and frame — which matters on gravel paths, woodland trails, snow or wet mud, and equally on longer outings where fatigue builds up over time.

Practicality

Folds flat.
Goes anywhere.

The wheels can be removed and the frame folds down, letting the SD Motion Trike load into a car boot with minimal effort. Holidays, day trips and transport are far more practical than you'd expect from a chair this capable.

Everything you need to know

Common questions.

The questions we hear most from people exploring the SD Motion Trike.

Can I take the Trike with my existing seating system?

Yes. The SD Motion Trike is designed to work with a range of seating options and can be configured to accommodate your existing setup in many cases. We'll advise on the best fit during your demo.

Does it fit in a standard car boot?

Yes — the wheels detach quickly and the frame folds down, making it practical to load into a car boot with minimal fuss. Exact fit will depend on your vehicle; we can advise based on your car.

How do I charge the battery?

The Li-Ion battery is removable, so you can charge it indoors without moving the Trike. A full charge takes approximately 6 hours and gives you up to 27km of range depending on terrain and speed.

Is it suitable for indoor use as well?

The SD Motion Trike is primarily designed for outdoor terrain. It can be used in large indoor spaces, but its dimensions and turning circle make it less suited to tight indoor environments.

What terrains can it handle?

The Trike is built for woodland trails, gravel paths, grass, parkland, hills and uneven ground. The RockShox suspension and all-terrain tyres handle challenging surfaces confidently.

Can I try it before I buy?

Absolutely — we offer free demos at home, at one of our events, or at a location that suits you. There's no obligation. Our team comes to you and you try every surface you care about.
