I have stage 4 cancer and walk 4 miles for groceries. At one time I loved it but every day it’s harder and harder. Living in a small town has its challenges with no transit service but you do what you do to enjoy the country life. I’ve been looking at these bikes for sometime now trying to figure out which would be best for my needs. I was leaning towards the lectric with a high back seat and baskets . But it seems every time I look up the prices go up and up I can’t keep up with them. I mean really people we’re not millionaires. Well not all of us I live on disability lol that’s far from being a millionaire.

It's important to note that the Rad has a coaster rear brake and a mechanical front disk. I bought the Lectric for my wife because she can't pedal. The Lectric has hydraulic breaks front and rear which is important because she's not strong enough to operate a mechanical disk brake.

I think having a front motor on a trike simplifies construction, which should make it less expensive. However, Lectric has blown that assumption out of the water. I don't know how they managed to do what they did but it just seems to me like a better option now. Not to mention that they also have a differential, which is necessary for rear wheel drive and adds more complication yet they still have a lower price. I think it's a shot across about the others and if it sells well, the other guys will have to drop their prices as well.

@Stryford1 9 ай бұрын
My choice out of these would be the Lectric XP Trike. For the price, you really are getting the most even without the cargo package, but they are currently including it and the backrest for an even better value. It's awesome that the XP Trike includes hydraulic brakes which is not only great for low maintenance but also for stronger stopping power when you're carrying a heavy load without needing a powerful grip. The rear/mid mounted motor is also a cool idea. The rear track may be narrower than the RadTrike but I'll bet the XP Trike is much easier and faster to squeeze through doors when you need to.

Great rundown of all the features I admire on the Lectric XP.

They aren't just picking out a lot of bikes in a Shenzhen warehouse and slapping their brand name on them.

I have a Caddy Emojo Adult Electric Trike which is most like the Eneuro. I have had it for almost 3 years. I paid $2800 for it and I added an extra battery which brought my total to $3100. I really love it. I am 56 and it has helped me in so many ways. I can sum up in one word what it has given me: FREEDOM!

What I have learned over the last few years is to utilize the different pedal assist levels. When I go to church on Sunday, there is a very steep hill I have to go up. So obviously, I have it at Pedal Assist(PA) 5, the highest level. But I have the chain at the lowest setting. But when I am on level ground and in the bike lane, I usually have it at PA 3 which is really enough. That keeps me at 12-15mph. I get just under 20 miles on a single charge.

I've just bought a very cheap used reversed e-cargo trike with a huge box on the front with a little door so children/dogs can enter and sit for a ride - I've taken out one set of seats so the dog has more room. It closely resembles the Babboe Dog E-cargo Trike if you fancy a look. Can't wait to try it out - servicing it first ❣️

It has a split differential which is very helpful when turning as it allows the inner and outer wheels to spin at different speeds. This makes it safer on turns. Brilliant engineering and real value on so inexpensive a product.

Thank you for the well rounded video Micah. I used to mountain bike in my younger days, love to bike and live a life of simplicity and frugality that many of my friends seem to think extreme. I rode my mountain bike 4 miles to college in Michigan winters for years. 20 years ago I started finding my bike too painful and myself too unstable to ride it anymore. I switched to a Sun recumbent and could enjoy riding 20 miles again. but, I wanted an e-bike even before e-bikes were cool. Lately I can't seem to balance on my 'bent anymore (it's a different kind of balance than an upright). I have been drooling over the Rad bikes, but afraid to spend the money when I'm not sure I could ride upright again. Can't afford the Rad trike. And I want to take my grandkids with me so I need something that can haul a load. When the Lectric popped up on pre-order for a price 1K less than the competition (and I got a tax rebate) I jumped on it. It did feel unstable on the sloped side of my crowned street for the first two rides, then I got used to it. My GD loves it so much she rides it without the motor. So I got her a used Schwinn trike and got a used bike trailer for my GS. My dogs come along in the baskets. We are having a great time, and I love that I can go to the PO box, library, stores and friends houses without breaking out my Rav4 (which I only drive 3K miles per year since 2019). Since it folds, with help I can put it in the back of the Rav to go to trails. It weighs about 62 pounds with the aluminum frame (that would be the thing that you could have added to the video). I watched your video just because I want to make sure I made the best choice. I did. Thank you for the confirmation.😄

I love my 20" folder but at 68 y/o my next EV will be a trike. In truth, I should be on one now as my daily commuter. I'm sure I will feel more secure in dense traffic, even with bike lanes. 15 mph is plenty on two wheels, perfect for three. This demonstration has sold me on the Lectric XP. The mid-drive/rear axle configuration is the only way to go. The torque must be applied to both wheels at or behind the CG for even traction. Loading the torque to the steering wheel in a tractor configuration just doesn't work. Thanks for the demonstration. Love to your Mom!

I hope this is ok. I don't need a trike for myself but my dad could use one. He has always been very active and he still walks several miles a week. He just turned 84 and has stopped driving because of health issues. He still goes to the store which is a little over half a mile round trip but is bummed that he can't carry as much as he used to. The trike would definitely allow him to get all he needs from the store and allow him to get back to some of the nearby parks he loves so much. Thank you for your attention.

Enter the world of recumbent tadpole trikes, made by Catrike, TerraTrike, ICE and more. Some, like Catrike, made right here in the USA! It is a whole movement and growing each year. They are far more stable, low to the ground, very safe when cornering and tons of fun! Please review these!

I have wanted a trike for 15 years. I looked at each of the recumbents you mention, but the price and visibility (or lack of it) of all of them put them out of my league. The Lectric trike was the first option that I could afford and gives me good road visibility, vehicular visibility and optional electric assist. Of course, as was mentioned, it is not fast but that has never been of interest to me.

@@anneK3801 While I cannot help with the price, I will say that that the far greater added comfort is worth the extra cost. In a recumbent position, there is no longer any wrist, back or neck strain. As far as visibility on the road, I have ridden many hundreds of miles on public roads and find that I am given more space by passing cars than when riding an upright bicycle. I believe this is due to the flag(s) used on these trikes as well as they do present as a larger and odd shaped vehicle that catches automobile drivers attention. And as I mentioned, because they are low to the ground, they are more stable, especially when cornering.

I think that it’s time we look at trikes differently. The tipping hazard is just too great for me to put a love one on. Turning on a steep grade or while moving is to muck of a factor. If there was some way to mechanically build a lean into the frame to prevent or greatly decrease the tipping, I wouldn’t hesitate to put my mother on it. Also love the rear wheel drive mechanism.

Am 88 and just purchased the Lectric XP. Unfortunately the left rear fender arrived bent onto the wheel so bike is unusable. Purchased an electric trike so I can strengthen my legs. Hope we can get this fixed soon. Do not drive anymore and walking doesn’t strengthen the legs. Would love one of your books. This is an excellent review.

Thank you for this balanced review. And for the give away. I would have also liked to know the weight that each one if these bike come in at, for most this will also be a deciding factor.

Another great review on the e-trikes. Being 6ft 5 the addmotor looks ideal for me. Just need to find a supplier in the UK.

Thank you for a very informative video. The only spec I didn't hear was the weight capacity of the trikes. Fit people often don't give any thought to this, but people like myself are often limited to what we can use, despite the price and specs.

These ebikes are an excellent mode of transportation going forward, especially in countries like mine where fuel cost a leg and an arm now. Hoping to get one soon.

Great review, thank you! I wonder if having the pedals further forward compared to the seat makes these (the ones with wide seats) better in longer rides. I am concerned with rubbing on the inside of the legs with seats so wide. Also, the front suspension on the Admotor is a bit excessive, considering the large tires and the fact that it's not the most stable vehicle; maybe I'm very wrong on this one.

❤ Really enjoyed your video! I have been searching for a trike and recently saw the lectric xp trike. Hearing about the differences in the trikes is helpful. I am glad the lectric xp rates so well. The economical value is also a major factor. I have mobility issues and have a short stature. Being able to get on the trike could be an issue for me. Being able to get outside and "around" would help with both my physical and mental well being. Thanks for the video! Look forward to other videos.
