Its a god send to us older people, to get outside. Im over 65, and ride my ebike daily. I peddle some, cruise around some. Bless you guys!

[@geoCow]

Thought your channel had disappeared from the trike-osphere. Glad you’re back. Love your presenter vibe, Kate.

[@kylelaverty67]

Hey, Chandler is good person. He's the first to help out if you email a problem with your purchase!

[@SmoochieMcgoo]

Good to see you guys making videos again. I'll be up by your shop in Utah in Spring 2022 to buy a trike. See you guys then!

[@lancerudy9934]

Love you people! ❤❤

[@mikejf4377]

I haven't seen you all post in a good while and it makes me smile to see you all. Keep up the videos, maybe more tec of all your choices of them.

[@jeffshultz5348]

Lol, the bloopers…. But lots of good information also.

[@gmaneis]

Wow! That's a lot of information in one shot. Plus the fly catching and lighting stuff. I'm going to have to watch it again. Seems like a super way to go for an e-trike. Why do your videos always make me aware of how small my bank account balance really is? :-)

[@apg8396]

Where you been Kate? We miss you!

[@MrTimmmers]

Two things I get asked every time on my fat bike, speed, range.

[@paulhiroto5336]

Great job Kate, keep'em coming!

[@StellarFella]

Electric assist and a lower-priced package are a strong draw for seniors. Utah Trikes seems to be doing a good job with models for each consumer group.

[@frankshattuck1975]

[@davidcarr2649]

Only for the outtakes. You get a thumbs up.

[@jimmymalone3494]

I enjoyed the fly catching and e/trike and Happy Thanksgiving

[@kencogley2498]

Great to see you folks posting again.

[@biking1953]

Glad to see a current video.

[@Stellar001100]

Looks like a great trike to modify.

[@steventaylor5713]

Thumbs Up Kate!!!! nice to see you back I need to win the lottery so I can order my trike, what can I say I have expense taste

[@nevillejones2451]

Dead flies don't ride! Once again glad to see you back on the 'Inter-Air!'.

[@J_Calvin_Hobbes]

I had a fat tire trike with a Bafang 500 watt hub motor. 500 watts is barely adequate for bicycles, but a waste on anything slightly heavier. The 500 watt motor did not help me at all going up a steep grade street when I really needed the assist. 1,000 watt minimum, 1,500 watt preferred. Also get a 20ah battery or don't bother.

[@robertpeck8245]

I agree with Calvin. The 500watt was not enough snuff to get up a hill. I eventually switched to a 750 on my next one. All the difference in the world in The upgrade was a no brained. Keep up the great job…UT! Bob Peck

[@sleepingbearffg5008]

little channel come long ways. Happy holidays!!

Hey where is lewis 👀 , great to see you posting more 😵👌

[@thevault5572]

Awesome video!

[@UtahTrikesOnline]

Thanks!

[@demonhuntermoonwolf244]

First comment, nice! Anywho! Awesome revival of an older design always makes me smile. FANTASTIC JOB!

[@outthasky]

So close

[@gsx95r]

I just put this on hold with my local bike dealer Now I’m starting to rethink it and wanting to get one with a 1000w mid drive. Hmmmm

[@Mark-qv4bn]

I'll be pulling a trailer with a 500 watt rear hub motor. These trikes are great.

[@seansprings7448]

Hubmotor was a great thing before middrive. Not so much these days Especially with a heavier bike or trike with fat tires . And not as easy to change tube or tire . If you have steep hills to climb , the hubmotor will be working very hard . 12 years ago I would have been excited . 🤔😉

[@crazycaseyandoldmanangus7143]

Awesome y’all back in action in the new digs looks like quite a bit more sq. Footage. I love the videos and the fact your infusing some youth in what otherwise is swamped with chrome haired oldsters like myself plus the metal background music makes me smile I can’t stand the yani kenni g type elevator music most every one insists on playing rock on you zany funsters

[@CanadasFoodieClub]

I wish I could have one of those, but Im homeless and disabled and could never in my life afford one of those its just simply way out of my reach, my Idea for one of those was to have a diamond plate cargo box replace the book rack holding the battery pack, have it so the top of lid opens in the center to each side and a pop up hammock tent folds out.I could sleep in there, underneath in the box can be on the back side the charger and battery and an inverter as you could put solor panels on the lid and charge batteries at the same time , acsess to batery can be by a door hatch on the sides of the box, 2 acsess doors on each side, on back of the box I would make a split door acsess and a flat shelf would roll out and I would have built in it 2 magnetic induction hot plate to cook on and a instant heat water hose for washing dishes that you can put in a water bottle out side on the ground, I could even use it as a shower, I cant ride a normal bike anymore, I have a spine injery and its painfull to ride a normal bike, Ive ridden bikes over the Canadian Rockies 3 times and done Vancouver island and incuding the Mallihat ,I have video of that one on my youtube channle right that one was my very last ride i was injured 2 days after that and i became disabled life has gone down hill ever since, but Im stronge willed and try to do what i can, if you guys let me buy the bike in parts each month a difrent part I could afford to buy the bike that way and I could build the bike pices by piece ,like in that Johnny Cash song 1 piece at a time , any how I love your design

[@joeows6537]

You could peek more interest if you offered a battery charger that was just one grade higher. A 6-hour charging time might turn more people off then if you could say that the charging time was three to 4 hours by simply using a 4 amp charger.

[@UtahTrikesOnline]

We'll put in a word with the manufacturer.

[@StellarFella]

pique

[@joeows6537]

@@StellarFella pique, peek, peak, you you know the thing Jack!

[@djdyke47]

it would seem we lost Lewis in the move. Wish him well.

[@paulkajtna7799]

I’m frustrated. I weigh 330 lbs and ride a Greenspeed Magnum XL. A local dealer says that the Bafang Mid Drive motor has nylon gears that can fail over 250 lbs. Another dealer in WI, H S recommends the E B O 500 Watt Front Range 2.0 to keep my existing drivetrain. PLEASE make a video for heavy riders using my trike!

[@conantdog]

Oh I see in the comments he might not have made the move 😵 . Good vibes to Lewis where ever he is . Dose he have a tube channel ? .

[@mitchellsmith4530]

was wondering if you can recommend replacement tires for this trike it seems to like to eat them up about every 150 miles.

[@robertpeck8245]

I had a problem with my Fat Tad burning up tires. The Camber was off. The toe-in/toe-out was way off. The bike shop called it SCRUBBING. You have to be sitting on the Trike while adjustments are being done . with the tie rod on the front.. next set 2500 plus miles. Bob Peck

[@jimmysapien9961]

Great video Utah/ Kate 🔥🔥🔥- presentation was AWSOME. Just one Question- how Fast can one go on The 500-750- 1000 Watt - and Duration?

[@davidoien3346]

Increasing battery volume should not void a warranty. Increasing voltage might. just a thought

[@UtahTrikesOnline]

You'll have to take that up with Sunseeker.

[@nishantchoudary5512]

I want to join your team

Nope... youre wrong. I clicked here for you. 😘😁 And Im stronger than that. Usually. Click Bait doesnt usually turn my head. Usually. It is what it is. And Im Ian. And I think youre beautiful. 🤷‍♂️

Is it me or does the arm position look uncomfortable?

It’s been far too long UT. What gives

[@darrenbeachy6671]

Thank you for the video. I always enjoy them. My only concern, black trike and black clothes on the road?!?!?!

[@UtahTrikesOnline]

Garrett was undercover.

[@goriverman]

Battery is a deal breaker

[@nizarahdragon3973]

My problem with a bike is I can't wear a long skirt

[@jonk8337]

No reason to buy this one over the 750w or 1000w mid drive option. The Bafang 750w mid drive (120-130 N.M.) of torque compared to the Bafang 500w hub (45 N.M.). The 750w mid drive option is a no brainer compare to this one. More range, more torque and cheaper. Sunseeker is not going to be happy with the comparison part of this video. 😂

[@user-wl4us3tg3c]

4.300 dolars ???xa xa xa

[@E-bikeeverything57]

500 watt hub motor won't go over well in the US. Really a bad move not having at least a 750 watt 1000 would be better

[@keithburchett6512]

Is he confused a women or a man please help me understand the painted nails

[@UtahTrikesOnline]

He is super duper confused. Some days we wonder how he even makes it to work.

[@bazookamangarage329]

What's the beef with painted nails

[@arielporte4149]

Call me when they're down to $500 or less...thanx

[@Mike-B.]

Dont care for the recumbent trike, like the regular fatty trikes.

[@randahlweeks3453]

YA what was that, that was the worst you tube I have ever watched from you guys, what happen to you.

[@UtahTrikesOnline]

Well. This is awkward.

[@metriccruiser]

Ah, it's probably cause I'm a freaking boomer, but I won't be trusting or putting my life in the hands of a mechanic with purple fingernail polish. I'm curious what kind of message is he trying to send with that fashion statement! :O)

[@UtahTrikesOnline]

Chandler is our top mechanic. He can paint his fingernails whatever color he wants as long as he stays around. The polish has had zero effect on his mechanical ability.

[@yikes9205]

What a stupid comment! Unreal.
