Best Electric Trikes 2024 | E-Trike Shoppers DON'T Miss This!

[@TotemoGaijin]

My grandma had a tricycle when I was a kid, and I always thought it was the coolest thing ever, lol. A regular bike only has two wheels, but this had three and a giant basket...lol.

[@HideyHoleOrg]

I am comparing e-trikes because my partner is in an electric wheelchair, and her comfortable "hiking speed" is faster than walking speed, but slower than a standard bike/e-bike. This makes hiking trips (we look for bike trails, for wheelchair accessibility) more doable with a lower minimum balance speed, but greater speeds still available.

[@richardgagne7931]

These bikes would be perfect for those who have vertigo (dizziness) and and are unable to ride a regular bike

[@marcberrenson570]

Exactly. Vertigo is the reason I'd consider a trike.

[@Bonjour-World]

Trike Review (and comparison) request: MoonCool TK1 Folding Trike There are a lot of KZbin video on this Trike bur very few that cover technical aspects of the trike. Took me a week to find out that the frame was T6061 Aluminum (as opposed to steel).

[@championslayers]

I looked at all 3 of these before this video came out and purchased the Lectric for my wife. The folks at Lectric are top notch at designing and engineering bikes.

[@edwardhenderson6755]

I've had my trike for about two months, I really love it and the performance, however, I would like to know if there is an "ADJUSTABLE" seat that would allow the rider to obtain the proper distance, and allow for easier on /off'....

[@dcarter001]

Keeping up with all the new models must be difficult. I saw this review, good and informative but I saw another model from another brand that combines many features then adds 250 more watts and twin batteries, OK not twin but dual. Thanks for taking the time to do this work, it matters.

[@ElectricBikeReport]

Thanks for watching! What was the other model/brand you saw? A dual battery trike sounds intriguing.

[@kennethkilpatrick3758]

What I'm looking for is the least amount of moving parts plus customer support. That makes Rad my choice from these three. Don't need the gears. Can get one of their dealers to assemble it for me and keep it maintained. That being said I'm really interested in the upcoming Liberty Trike with 20" wheels. Has mag wheels, is single speed, and can completely incomplete it into two pieces which makes it a lot lighter for transport. Waiting for reviews on it. Just need a grocery getter in a fairly level town.

[@kennethkilpatrick3758]

Completely "uncouple" it. Spell check!

[@defan2105]

I'm really surprised that the front and rear baskets aren't made with solar panels on them so it will charge when parked or on the move. Question: can you use a folding solar panel to charge them if you are away from a normal charging outlet? Thank you.

[@rosemaryb9658]

How do you lock it to prevent theft when at an event or grocery store?

[@Athrunwong]

Who TF steals trikes?

[@rosemaryb9658]

Anyone who thinks they can turn around & sell it!

[@MultiNemesis101]

I've found a 75lb dog attached to it quite effective...

[@myronhornby1859]

Is there any pros or cons to having both rear wheels driving? Instead of just the front wheel.

[@ElectricBikeReport]

We've noticed that the front wheels on trikes with front hub motors can spin out at times. There's just better traction when both rear wheels are powered.

[@tajhayes7841]

Any suggestions on E trike models that would B a bit easier 2 get up/down stairs ?? Any suggestions would B much Appreciated!!

[@ElectricBikeReport]

So far, the ones we've seen and tested have been fairly heavy and bulky. The XP Trike and the Easy Transit might be decent options if you remove their batteries and have two sets of hands to help lift them. But we'll keep our eyes open for lighter models too.

[@tajhayes7841]

@@ElectricBikeReport ok THNX guys!!

[@hudsonisbetter]

Hey guys I really need you're help! This question isn't about this bike but out of these 3 emtb what one should I get I'm looking for range and good components! So the bikes are the Aventon Ramblas ($2,700), Specialized Turbo Tevo 3.0 ($2,300), or the Denago EXC2 ($2,600). Please I need help,

[@ElectricBikeReport]

The Aventon Ramblas: ebrdeals.com/ebrAventon-Ramblas is quickly becoming one of our favorite ebikes. And you can upgrade it also after purchase, to keep making it better!

[@anneyday3493]

I would appreciate a review of how difficult/easy they are to put together by ordinary people

[@edwardhenderson6755]

The trike is really very simple, I had a stroke years back (06) and found that I could unpackage and start using the Trike in the same afternoon., only complaint, was the way fed/ex damaged the deliver, however, the e-bike replaced damage pats.

[@randallwells2892]

It depends on the trike. Face it, they are all made in China and customer service is non-existent. Take a look at the junk Amazon is selling, $ 700- 900 electric trikes. Some of the reviews must be bogus.

[@Hey_me]

I work as a drywall taper. I am looking for something can help me transport minimum tools. Any recommendations will be highly appreciated

[@ElectricBikeReport]

All of these trikes can carry cargo!

[@perrynpat]

Hi Fellas, Excellent video. Have you done any evaluations/testing on the Narrak Electric Tricycle? I'd really be interested in that as I just bought one off Amazon. Thank you.

[@ElectricBikeReport]

We haven't had the chance to test that one yet - it sounds like you might get to it before we do! Let us know how it does for you.

[@saveamerica5707]

What trail do you do your testing of bike ?

[@cj9741]

They are mostly on the virgin river trail network in St George Utah.

[@ElectricBikeReport]

Correct!

[@Jill-y9w]

I'm looking for a trike that has a bench for my grandchildren to ride along. Any suggestions?

[@Xterraforce]

There are a few. Take a look at the Sixthreezero Rickshaw trike. It has a rear bench seat and they recently announced next year they will have a trailer for it with an additional bench seat to take even more people along.

[@Jill-y9w]

@@Xterraforce Thank you for your reply! You mentioned you had a few suggestions. I'm curious what your other ones are. I appreciate your knowledge in this area. I know very little.

[@Xterraforce]

@@Jill-y9w some others that come to mind are the Maxfoot MF-33 Maxlandau, Addmotor Greattan L and Forte electric trike with rear seat.

[@Jill-y9w]

@@Xterraforce Thank you for your expertise!

[@714mattman]

Why haven’t you guys covered any tadpole style electric trikes? They tend to be more stable and lend themselves to running rear hub motors.

[@ElectricBikeReport]

We have one that's supposed to be on the way.

[@anonymixx8106]

​​@@ElectricBikeReport The Spytan? Please share your opinion on its ability to tilt if you review it? ❤

[@doncatchpole]

You did not mention noise?

[@torinsall]

Nice summary, but it seems the 1-3k etrikes are heavier, often 70-150#, than we want to deal with. Would like to see reviews of recumbent trikes (ones with higher seating) such as the Hase Trigo electric (delta style, Hase entry level trike), plus the tadpole Catrike Villager electric (etrike wgt 51#) and it's cousin the Catrike Max (425# wgt capacity; etrike wgt 57#). Yes, these are more expensive, at about 5k, than the usual 1-3k etrikes, but they also weigh 35-40# for nonelectric or 51-57# for electric versions.

[@ElectricBikeReport]

We'll have to reach out and see if they'd be interested in having us review them. Thanks for the recommendations!

[@ty1on831]

Hard to believe people are still recommending front hub drives...constant slipping no traction garbage.

[@ms.carlettawilson1522]

I went the Add motor E310 trike trike but they say on they order page they not selling to New York City That’s a shame so I’m trying to look for another company to go with sad just sad 😢😢❤

[@ElectricBikeReport]

Try sending them a message to see when they plan on making them NY compliant. Most every company is somewhere in the works on that at the moment.

[@pampierce]

I tried a trike and they feel really bad because they tip easily. I don't see why you would recommend one that doesn't tilt. Twist throttle is dangerous, especially for an older adult, but I don't hear you mentioning that.

[@jasonhermosilla9064]

Curious about the sixthreezero rickshaw which can transport two people. I wish it made this video.

[@ElectricBikeReport]

We recently released a review of that model! Check it out here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/i5OpZIeNmd2XsNk

[@StrikeGoldWithAmber]

I would like a review of The Pfautec from Germany/ Switzerland

[@Sculldiva]

can you compare evelo with these other trikes

[@ElectricBikeReport]

It's a great trike too. We're in general a fan of shorter diameter tires. 20" is the sweet spot, so the Compass is a smidge high which raises your center of gravity so you have to take corners even slower. It's got a lot of nice components though so if you have the budget it's a good option.

[@KIMBOSTON-h6y]

I have a nine year old grandchild who would like to join me on the paved trail in our town. Would a trike be safe.

[@evilfingers4302]

Too bad none of them can Tilt which would solve the problem of making sharp turns and prevent from falling over.

[@garysilver718]

I’m more interested about how they are accepted by the community you live in. Riding on a sidewalk or the street . Parking at the grocery store, theft,

[@ElectricBikeReport]

We have many trike and e-trike riders in our community. We have a network of shared use paths here, so it's not often that we see many on the street, but there are riders who use sidewalks. Theft is hard to plan for, but it seems to be fairly ubiquitous, so we recommend always securing your bike or trike with one or more locks when parking it.

[@LMV123]

Front wheel drive is stupid, Letric is the only option here.

[@ElectricBikeReport]

If dialed in it's good in our opinion. Traction on the two rear wheels is great though.

[@jsso2845]

Lots of models now have rear motors and deraillers for hilly areas

[@SilverScarletSpider]

i’m waiting for a custom awd dual motor awd electric tricycle trike. please invent one

[@DM-fp8uw]

Why would you text the XP on beginner mode. 🤦

[@ElectricBikeReport]

In general, we encourage people to go slower on trikes, and we kinda liked that the XP Trike came that way to be honest.

[@DM-fp8uw]

True, but it's only 2mph faster and importantly makes the PAS levels more differentiated.

[@KuriousKevin]

Baffled that a) you didn’t review the three I am considering * Evelo * DiBlasi *HJM TriBauler Pro AND b) … that you completely ignore all the one and two star, terrible reviews, for so many tricycle makers!

[@patricka.crawley6572]

No sense of balance. My e-trike. $800....$800...yep, $800 35mph 60 mile charge.

[@BrendaBlair-rb2cc]

I have no sense of balance. Can you tell me what e-trike you bought?

[@patricka.crawley6572]

@@BrendaBlair-rb2cc Ah. It is a customised 2-wheel scooter. The rear wheel was removed and a 2-wheel axel put on the back. RFM is the name of the shop. But any outlet that imports Chinese scooters will be O.K. My trike goes 60 kmph...40 mph...too fast. They last for years and the batteries are no problem.

[@BrendaBlair-rb2cc]
