$2499.... seems to be the starting price, well before any specials or sales.... need to save up for this one, but it looks so FUN and perfect for my plus size body...... thanks for the great video. So many of the other trike videos only talk about it and showing skinny people on them. I'm 65 years old, 270lbs... this looks like it could handle the weight.
Love this! It is listed on your website with a 500w motor and front and rear motor option. Would they both be upgraded to 750w? Would the 7 speed shifters be available on both front and rear models? I would need to fit this in a van with a 52 inch opening, is the seat low enough to fit? Thanks! This could be the one!!
Sorry that was an accident. It is a 500w front hub motor. I accidentally say 750w in the video. I'm going to make another video with measurements. I'll try and get that completed and uploaded this week!
Questions. Wow, comfortable, beautiful, stable. Tradeoffs--front wheel drive for easier maintenance, but less traction than rear wheel. Questions: for longer range, can a spare battery be easily traded out? I will need a trike for grocery shopping. When storage is added, will I be able to carry three full bags? What are the tradeoffs between cable and hydraulic disk brakes? And then the comment--if the electric motor needs to be replaced in one to three years, its a simple fix. I plan to ride several times a week. Should I expect to regularly replace the motor?
I could hear the motor straining as it went up hill. My son has an e-bike at it is always quite. Have you tested This on gravel, dirt or uneven surfaces. I live in the country. I'm disabled And use a wheel chair. Other trikes won't work for me but this seat and handlebar configuration would. What is the distance between charges?
The motor is quiet in person, but does need to work harder up hills. It can go on hard packed trails no problem, we will also be coming out with a more powerful version and fat tires soon.
I’ve been looking at a very similar bike made in the Netherlands (also called easy rider.. no way to ship it to America though) that cost $6-8K depending on options). The similar version had the motor in the rear, in the gear changing mechanisms were all in a permanently sealed hub. I think this bike is good for the price, but no matter who makes the bike, a front wheel powered trike it’s not going to do so well on gravel, especially uphill.
I was getting used to the throttle power, as you apply gradual power it grips perfectly. Of course it will slip on ice, on wet pavement it will do just fine. We will determine the weight distribution and make a video on that. Thanks!
