With effortless telescoping adjustability it’s easy to see why we named our revolutionary line of family-style tandems the Periscope. Designed to accommodate people of all different sizes with fun and style, the Periscope 26 is the perfect tandem for families on the go.

The heart of the Periscope design is our double seat mast system, which provides four times the range of adjustability of other tandems and accommodates riders from 3 ft. to over 6 ft. Think of the Periscope’s telescoping, precision aluminum seat mast and quick-release double-clamping system as a seat post within a seat post that adjusts to fit virtually anyone.

The simplified frame you see in each PeriScope uses specially designed exceptionally large diameter, zonally-butted tubing. Whichever PeriScope model you choose features the lightweight and rigid compact frame design that supports the tall and the small with admirable performance. Safety, comfort and reliability never take a back seat to the design priorities of achieving exceptional stand-over clearance and user-friendly comfort.

We‘ve taken great care with the Periscope line’s component selection as you’d expect from Co-Motion You’ll find top-quality, tandem-ready components from the value-priced PeriScope Scout to the zingy new PeriScope Hammerhead. The Co-Motion Periscope Family Plan was designed with growing families in mind but performs outstandingly with virtually any combination of riders. Really. Take one on your club ride and then ride with your kid to the local park.

Choose a 26” model PeriScope Scout or Torpedo for ease of use. 26” wheels are tougher and they can take fatter tires, but don’t roll quite as fast as 700c wheels. The 26” models will fit smaller riders than the 700c models. See sizing info for details. If you enjoy road riding and you prefer 700c wheels, we recommend the Scout 700, Torpedo 700 or the PeriScope Hammerhead. The 700c format gives up a little of the sizing range that the 26” models offer, with lesser ability to fit a small rider in front, and it requires a slightly larger stoker as well. How much of your family would you like to fit on one bike? The PeriScope Trident and Trident convertible triplet expand on the concept by placing three riders together. Yes, we also make PeriScope quads and quints!
