Built around Ice Bear's allround motorcycle platform, the 2016 Ice Bear Elf 50 Trike pairs a 49.5 cc (3 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 1.9 HP (1.4 kW) at 5,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 2 Nm (1.5 lb-ft) at 4,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through chain final drive. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 38.4 x 41.4 mm (1.5 x 1.6 inches) with a 10.5:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the Elf 50 Trike measures 119.8 kg (264 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 770 mm (30.3 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,539 mm (60.6 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 4.54-liter (1.2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 67 km/h (42 mph).
