[@pedrofernandez8729]

Here's a good idea, these e bike sellers should have fellers like you going places where lots of seniors attend and bring this trike, let people test it out, give them the info and your card and when they order you get an extra cut. I am sure they will sell a lot more, lots of folks our age, don't surf the web and may not be aware that these even exist. Lots of retired folks could use this instead of a much more expensive and hard to store, golf cart, and this is useful for those errands to the stores where you don't really need a car or even a golf cart.

Hi Richard, this is Pat again. I would be happy to give out your cards when people ask about my cyan Mooncool TK1 trike here in Bay St Louis and Waveland.

11:15 mins in, rolled thru stop sign again heading on to the Bay Bridge. In an instructional video demonstrating a product, imo, following the rules of the road is important, whether or not you roll thru them in your usual practice. I was surprised. Aside from that, great demo!

Was going to show off my wife's Galaxy Trike same/ simular set up but i guess i cant upload a photo with my wife riding it. She has balancing issues and bungee cords her Nero rolator walker on top of the rear basket so she can walk away from the trike. I like the fact she does not have to put her foot down at a stopsign or light..I'll share my experiences with my wife's Trike later this week. I like the color of yours. Disabled seniors will certainly gain alot of freedom with the Trike you are sharing.

I wonder if it can fit thru those narrow entrances to some trails that use poles to keep vehicles out? These companies are wise to send you their bikes for testing, you make an excellent presentation.

[@Rip1Outdoors]

I really try hard Pedro. I was fighting symptoms of the crud.

[@Rip1Outdoors]

[@biologist2wildlife]

Where you went to pedal assist 2 on the bridge, could you have just used pedal power to get up to, say, 10mph? Then, when tiring, click on pedal assist? Or, use the throttle just to get over the "hump?"

[@biologist2wildlife]

If a tire went flat while out on a ride, would the flat fix be the same for as a regular bike? How would one secure to the bike a safety kit containing a new tire & the tools necessary to change it out, where it wouldn't be stolen? Is there any guidance avail online for changing a flat, for those able to do so? And what about "fix flat" sprays, like those used for cars, for those who physically can't fix a flat? One wouldn't want to leave the trike unattended. What has been your experience in that regard & what do you recommend for trike owners to be prepared for a flat? That's an important factor when heading out on a ride, especially if it might involve riding off the paved trail (or just missed seeing the tack you rode over!) Thanks!

[@teresaelrod9447]

Does it have a hitch or something so you can attach a pet cart? My dogs go camping with me and this trike would be great to take along on my trips.

Excellent, thorough review, Richard. What a nice e-trike. I love the color. If I wanted a trike this is the one I would get. How did you haul it to Bay St. Louis? Do you have a ramp you put it up inside the truck bed? Guess what, I am feeling under the weather today. Ugh. Not sure where I caught my cold.

[@bammbamm9478]

How does this do offroad, like on a dirt trail or the beach in the sand? Also, I am 6'4" tall and weigh around 330...would this bike fit me? I used to bicycle a lot on rails to trails, doing 30-50 mile rides but since breaking my back, I cannot do that. Have a Cannondale 25" frame with 27" tires so I sit real high but it accommodates me. If this bike would not fit me, any idea which one might? I think the site says up to 6' tall and max weight of 350#. So that max weight would be me and any of the gear, like a cooler or beach bag included? Great review by the way.

[@Rip1Outdoors]

Thank you for the kind words. I have heard some say the addamotor is a better choice for someone in the size range you mentioned. I absolutely love this trike. I have crossed ditches and rode through dirt and sand with no problems. I really think it may be a bit small for you though.

[@ManderMurduh]

Seems like a really nice etrike. Granted, I'm in my early thirties, but I have balance issues, so riding a regular bike can be a bit of a doozy for me.

[@Rip1Outdoors]

It’s a great trike that’s for sure

[@biologist2wildlife]

How easy is it for other cyclists to pass a trike on a bike trail like you're on near the beach? I live by a serious bike trail, VERY busy, & I'd hate to be holding up other riders if there was cross traffic.

I'm not clear--can it be pedaled without assist?

It can. I have the same trike and it’s pretty easy to pedal without assist for me on flat ground. I’m 87 though, so hills would be difficult without assist.

Thanks for the video. I would love to get my wife on a e trike. As a owner of a 20" × 4 ebike, a trike would help us out to do daily chores and just fun times together. I must mention that we are Camp host for Army Corps in Florida. So daily, I'm asked about my own ebike 👉yesterday a group of 4 campers👈. You would think a company would be begging us to try out a product, but no👉 lectric they passed. We unfortunately are in the line of pay for everything. But who knows - maybe in the future a trike will be part of our equipment. Her issue is with stability and other issue is with height - a female coming in at 5' on a good day.

[@Rip1Outdoors]

Michael my grandson is 5-0 and he rides it easily. Keep a watch on my channel I have another TK-1 coming in today. I plan to unbox and assemble this evening. It is for a friend who is buying it for his wife. They raise a garden and want something for her to ride and haul vegies with. Lectric won't send anyone a bike, period. I feel I don't need a trike but oh my how I love to ride it. I use it for all kind of things around here, even hauling 5 gallon cans of deisel for my tractor. Richard

[@terrynelson2385]

Can you be in PAS 1 and still pedal up to top speed? Or must you be in PAS 5? How about throttle only, can you be in PAS 1 and still throttle up to top speed? I think the speed is strictly controlled by which PAS you're in whether pedaling or throttling; am I wrong?

[@Rip1Outdoors]

Yes it seems that the speed is controlled by the PAS whaich is not bad at all.
