I'm 70 years old, formerly employed in the motorcycle industry, and a lifelong rider. I thoroughly enjoyed your video. Thank you.

[@mrkentdotcom]

Thank you for your comment David. That was probably a very rewarding job. I just bought them and rode them and and enjoyed the ride. Thank you for your comment and God bless.

[@bevbarmettler7406]

Hi Mr. Kent, my husband is almost 87 and just recently got a trike. It is more stable after a stroke and so far he's doing great. I am 82 and have had my trike since last year and love it. God willing we both will have this freedom for a few more years.

[@mrkentdotcom]

Thank you for your comment Bev. And sharing your information on your etrike. You two have what it takes to live together longer than most. Thanks again for your comment and God bless.

I am nearly 90 live in Australia had mine About ten years just handed in my license and I do a lot more then 14 miles an our ride it every day Got a big black plastic box on the back love it

[@virginiageer4693]

I’ve had my Lectric trike for a couple of months. I LOVE IT! I’m 66 yrs old and handicapped. I ride it everyday. Best purchase ever!

[@mrkentdotcom]

Thank you for your comment Virginia. Yep, it's unbelievable how much enjoyment we can get from the trikes. I ride nearly everyday also and ride along with my grandson with his new dirt bike. Thanks again for your comment and God bless.

[@toddmulligan2609]

yay fun!! ya buddies, get some!

[@benb2199]

I just helped my 84 yr old uncle do some research on which trike he wanted and he chose this 1. Can't wait until it gets here to get him out and about enjoying the outdoors again. Great video sir

[@mrkentdotcom]

Thank you for your comment Ben. I'm glad it helped. I have a video on the channel showing how I tried to tip the trike over. You guys may enjoy that one. Have fun with that and if you have questions don't hesitate to ask. Thanks again and God bless. [e-mail]

[@frontiersenior5345]

We’re 67 and almost 70. Good for you! I ride both e-bikes and bikes. My husband can only ride e-bikes because of his health issues. I told him he needs an etrike now. Thanks for sharing! God bless you. Keep riding!! ❤️

[@mrkentdotcom]

Thank you for your comment and kind words. Yes, he will love the trike. But it takes a little "getting used to". My first try on it was a little scary because when it started to go right I tried to correct it by going left and totally lost control. But after that it was a matter of learning the difference between a bike and a trike. Thank you for your comment and kind words and may God bless you folks also.

I am 74, and have been riding motorcycles. For better than 50 years. In 2017, I decided to give up my Goldwing and purchased a 49 cc Honda Ruckus scooter. An in nice weather am still riding it! But I do appreciate your video on this etrike, stay safe and strong!

[@Xterraforce]

Congratulations on the new trike! This is the one I plan on buying next spring or summer. I had a stroke a few years ago and no longer have the muscle strength and control or balance to ride a bicycle. If you haven't already contacted Lectric you can send them pictures of the damaged fenders and they'll send you new ones. It's a pretty common issue unfortunately. I hope you get many years of enjoyment with it.

[@mrkentdotcom]

Thank you for your comment. Yep, now I wish I had thought of this before. I'm just getting broken in on it but I plan to have some good times riding with it. I'm not going to be concerned about the fenders, it wasn't Lectric's fault and they don't bother the riding any. I'm sorry to hear about your stroke. I have now had two minor strokes: they are no fun at all. Thanks again for your input and God bless.

Your new e-trike looks marvelous and is an excellent purchase to continue your daily enjoyment of riding. I hope all goes well with your medical procedure later today. Cheers from Australia

[@mrkentdotcom]

Thank you Michael for your comment and kind words. Yes, the procedure went very well. I just had to spend the whole rest of the day in the hospital.

[@johnstephens6079]

Hiya Buddy : It looks like this would be a good choice for me , since I just had stem cell therapy for a hip injury which I hope after a few more months will be cured but to have my motorcycle I decided against it as I am 71 years old. So it seems like this would be pretty good to get out and ride around on my property and not really go to the store because I'd have to go on a couple of highways to get to town so that's an out , but riding around the country roads will be much fun too. So an e - trike is the way to go for me too. Enjoy and keep on Trikin' John Wayne

[@SistrenLikkleLioness]

I'm still riding at 75 years but inevitably that will slip away and my interest in e-trikes led me to your post. Thanks !

[@mrkentdotcom]

Good for you Jim, thank you for your comment. I'm glad I switched when I did. My old body was beginning to get a little wobbly just walking around. The trike gives me a lot more security than the bike did. Have a very happy New year and God bless.

[@mikethecornking]

E-Bikes have been on the ride in my area the past few months, so much so that I'm starting to see E-Trikes on the road too! I know two people who own one, and I may have even seen another one, and I'm seeing about as many E-Bikes as regular bikes, possibly slightly more now. It warms my heart as an E-Bike owner and guru (starting a bike mechanic side hustle this year) to see more of it. On the downside, there's no clean-up crew for bike lanes here, and bike lanes are home to dangerous debris and litter like broken glass and nails/screws so I hope to see that change for the future.

[@mrkentdotcom]

Thank you for your comment Mike. You know what you're talking about on the bike lanes. I've picked up debris in my tire and almost flat by the time I got home. Thanks again for your comment and have a great new year. God bless.

[@prophetzarquon1922]

I think anyone who isn't trying to shave every gram of weight off their bike, is well served to not only use extra-thick tubes (tubeless is _not_ more durable; tests prove it) but to *add a good volume of nice thick slime sealant.* I've had 1/4” holes that self sealed (& later spit the goo out while crossing rail tracks & then resealed with more goo over the next few rotations). I no longer consider a bike ready to ride, until there's a generous pool of thick sticky sealant in the tubes. (Slime™ brand tubes are not great, but their bottles\jugs of sealant work great with "thorn resistant" tubes.) Tip: Always get the valve stem at a downward angle (4 o'clock or 8 o'clock) before filling/deflating, so the valve stem doesn't get clogged by sealant. Fine for me: I don't have to bend over as far!

Never stop being 😎Mr Kent! I loved this video and you sold me on the Lectric E-Trike. Had watched several videos on e-bikes and trikes. None of the videos I watched talked about it having rear wheel drive. I hope you benefit from this very easy to follow video. You rock!

[@mrkentdotcom]

Thank you Ann for your comment and such kind words. Infact, Lectric e-bikes sent me two of their tshirts because so many people buy a e-trike after watching it. As nice as that is I benefit more to hear that someone was helped because watched the video. Thanks again for your comment and God bless you.

[@Thomas-yr9ln]

I'm 68 and just recently got a Etrike. So far I road it to pick up groceries about 16 miles round trip. I only grocery shop once a month at the big store in town . But I ride it about half a dozen times a month to the corner store to pick up little things like milk. The great thing about a ebike is you never have to buy gas again. Don't know how long it will be before I have to dish out for something expensive like a battery but I imagine it would last about two or three years.

[@mrkentdotcom]

It sounds like your situation is similar to mine. I don't drive a car anymore so this gets me to most places I need to go. Thank you for your comment and input Thomas and God bless you.

I’m not in the market for one but I watched through because I enjoyed your presenting and was impressed at how you managed to go over all the details of the e-trike without doing a million cuts like most people do.

Great video and if I was looking for an e-trike or something similar, I would find your video a compelling endorsement for this one.

Hey there. I found this vidso just in time i think, as i been looking at and trying to decide which ebike to get but seeing as how im 66 myself, after all the years with as many injuries ive collected, compression fracture of my back, knee surgery, falling off back of one of my mountain bikes 15 years ago and having 2 3" screws in for that one and arthritis from all that and more, been leaning towards maybe a trike is the way to go. At 1st top speed doesnt sound all that exciting but gotta keep telling myself i really am not 18 years old any more and dont know how many more injuries like those ive had already i can expect to recover from, and live through much less survive. I like that your attitude and out look on things seems to be quite similar to my own so im subscribing now so guess you may have to put up with some of my comments now and then but you'll get over it. Just kidding, you totally rock and i do look forward to seeing more of your experiences. God bless both you and your wife and take care in the trying times ahead. Love ya all, bye.

Great review on the Lectric Etrike! The M5 Dashboard LCD display I think is one of the best out there since it's easy to see in bright sunlight and gives the user all of the information on the battery/controller status. I have a M5 on my Emoped and it is real handy with Voltage/Current display status of the bike and batteries. The controller and LCD display might have some advanced functions available for you like a CruiseControl function so you might want to contact Lectric concerning them. Be real careful on setting any of them since they can affect the operation of the trike.

I think of something like this as a mobile platform I can work from. Perfect for carrying your toolbox, beverages, and stuff around the yard. You could carry a battery for jump-starting vehicles.

Thank you for the great video, you are correct about what you are getting for the price is fantastic. I really like that it is a rear wheel drive and the frame looks heavy duty. I can still ride my two wheeler e-bike but like you have had my share of ER trips for it and have built a few and looked at other front wheel drive trikes and have discovered either they have poor climbing traction and or the forks are not truly suited for the torque. As for the speed you are spot on again with a trike but too last time I checked 13 mph is faster than walking. My wife is always wanting to ride my three wheelers as they pass through my collection and she hates the lean. Our street really bows and if you are not ready for it you will be all over the curbs. I like really everything about this trike and I normally would not buy what I could build but they did it right. thanks again.

[@mrkentdotcom]

Thank you for your comment and very helpful input. Yep, I know what you mean about the lean putting where you don't want to go. It took me a while to get used to that at the first. I'm amazed to hear you say you have built your own. That is special. You and your sweetie and family have a very merry Christmas and God bless.

Mr. Kent, you’re an inspiration. Thank you. I don’t ride bikes because my balance is awful due to health issues. I am drooling over all the eTrike videos but am stalling because I can’t afford it. When I can no longer drive I will get an eTrike.

[@mrkentdotcom]

Thank you for your comment Rob. That's where I am. I can no longer drive so the trike is how I get around. Thanks again for your comment and God bless you.

[@ricknoe942]

Hey Mr Kent. I'm 69 and also live in AZ. Been riding ebikes for the last 7 years. The Lectric trike is definitely the best trike for the money. I checked a month or 2 ago and the Addmotor semi-recumbent trike is now also rear-wheel drive (it's nice, but it's still over twice as expensive). I'll ride 2 wheelers as long as I can, but if I had to buy a trike today, I'd buy the Lectric too. Giving you another subscriber, old timer! 👍

[@mrkentdotcom]

Thank you for your comment and info Rick. Nice meeting you and thank you for the sub. We never know ahead of time what will come our way so ride safe, don't crash and dislocate your shoulder and have to ride home like that, and maybe you will never need a trike. Thanks again for your comment and God bless.

Great video and review, thank you!!

Thank you for this review. I am considering getting this for my 76-year-old mother with serious knee problems. She loved to bike ride when we were younger. It would be wonderful to take her back to the park to do more than our weekly wheelchair walk (I push her). We have a good time on those outings, but she would be so much happier with being able to be on a bike under her own control.

[@mrkentdotcom]

Thank you for your comment. If she liked riding before I'm pretty sure she would like it now. The nice thing about it is, once you get used to it pedaling takes very little effort. And you still get the exercise. Thanks again for your comment and God bless you and your mother.

[@bakudans4851]

What you may missed, it looks for me that you can fold the front in, so it takes up less space. If need be. So if you need to store it inside it is easier. Greetings from Austria.

[@mrkentdotcom]

Thank you for your comment and handy suggestion. The rear wheel base is just narrow enough to roll it through any entrance door. That's a good idea though. Thank you for your comment. It is appreciated. Have a merry Christmas and God bless.

Great review. Thanks!

[@mrkentdotcom]

You are welcome and thank you for your comment and kind words. God bless.

[@andrejka_talking_out_loud]

God bless you for this. I was wondering when the tires have air let out to make bumpy roads easier when on the smooth pavement will the lower air ires be more prone to get a flat?

[@mrkentdotcom]

Thank you for your comment and question Andre. There is still plenty of air in the tire, it doesn't even look like there is any air missing. I have been doing this for several years and never had a problem. Thanks again and God bless.

[@jonclement]

I missed whether you had a seat stem that absorbs some of the bumps? Also, be careful with the extra width of wheels at the back since they stick out further then you realize. I'd almost suggest putting a wide front bumper that matches the width of the back. safety first!

[@mrkentdotcom]

Thank you for your comment Jon. Yes the stem has that. The wheel base is narrow enough to go through any entrance door. Thank you for your comment and helpful info. God bless.

[@spencerboaz2385]

The display is almost like my car , just smaller . That's a pretty cool trike . I have a friend in Houston that has a Can-Am Spider it's the one that has the two wheels in the front . I have never ridden it but I have to say it's much faster than our Harleys and she says she loves it . But I can't see Crystal and me ridding it but it looks like a lot of fun . The Harley trikes look like they would be easy to flip to me , never been on one of them either . Well ride safe and I'll be praying for your health and biopsy to go well . Bless ya .

[@mrkentdotcom]

Thank you Spencer for your comment and input. Yep, I agree about the Harley three wheeler. My son Bruce rode one and said it wanted to go all over the road. You take it easy on yours too. I spent 18 days in the hospital thanks to an idiot driver. Thank you for your prayers. They are appreciated. You and Crystal are also on my list and heart. Thanks and God bless.

[@jefffoster4303]

[@geraldneville2733]

Looks like the perfect machine, good choice. I still enjoy ridding and the added electric motor is a real plus. Ride on

[@mrkentdotcom]

Thank you for your comment Gerald. Yep, it makes it nice for us old guys 😀. You have a merry Christmas and God bless.

[@crawfordwice]

I really did enjoy your video. Looks like a great trike.

[@mrkentdotcom]

Thank you for your comment Crawford and kind words. God bless.

[@danoleary6649]

73, here. I have this trike and a Worksman Industrial that I put a motorized wheel on the front. There actually is a great benefit to front wheel drive. When and if you need it, you simply do a bit of pedalling, and now you have all-wheel drive. Not so with the rear-wheel drive. I love them both, though.

[@mrkentdotcom]

You have a good point there Dan. Thank you for your comment and wise input. I never thought of that before. Thanks again and God bless.

[@gerf1023]

Took delivery of an XP Trike a little over a week ago. I'm only 65 years old, but I have a inoperable lower back injury that has left my legs almost paralyzed. Need a walker to get around, legs are getting weaker probably be in a wheelchair in a few months. Anyway, use to ride my bicycle all over, would typically put on 1000+ miles a year. Can't do that anymore, I end up crashed with the bike on top of me. It's winter here in Colorado so I've only been able to take a couple of rides on the trike. Gotta get use to not having to put my legs down when I stop. Feels weird when I'm riding on sloped pavement, like the trike is going to flip over. I'm starting to get use to that so my anxiety isn't as high. 😂My legs are so weak I can hardly pedal, though I do a little bit for exercise. My walker does fold up, so I may figure a way to fasten it to the back basket. I worry about having a breakdown and not being able to walk. I do carry a spare folding tire and inner tube in case I have a blowout (happened to me once on my bike and I had to push it 4 miles home. But that was years ago and my legs were still good). Anyway, I refuse to sit around the house and feel sorry for myself, I'm getting out for some sunshine and fresh air! 😃

[@mrkentdotcom]

Wow! I appreciate and respect your attitude. Use bunji cords to hold your walker down. I carry several of them with me in my pouches. As a suggestion, whenever I'm starting I give it a little throttle to get moving. Then pedaling is much easier and turns out to be mostly movement exercise. The tilting is a bit to get used to. My son tried to tip mine over on a sharp corner and it only got up on two wheels and came back down. The thing I am learning is, if it looks dangerous slow down. I'm never in a hurry. If one of the back wheels rolls into a rut going slow it will not throw you around so much as if you were flying along. That might flip you over because of the speed. I have the greatest respect for your attitude. I would like to hear more of your story and get to know you better if you are interested. My email address is: [e-mail] Let me know if you are interested in visiting more. Thank you so much for you comment and God bless you.

Nice tour of the new trike. I thought the Price would have been much higher. That's a lot of bike for the money!! God bless!!

[@mrkentdotcom]

Yep, I found it hard to believe. I watched a video where a guy compared the most popular trikes and this one had all the best at the lowest price. Thank you for your comment and God bless.

[@jessicaphoenix1312]

Thanks for helping to narrow this down for a purchase. My mother will be 70 in a couple of months and there is no way I can see her on a bike anymore. She needs to get out of the house and be active so I decided to get her an E trike. I have a couple of different trikes I am looking at. I may decide to go with a fat tire and a 750-watt motor so that she can make it through grass, sand, and hills. RWD is definitely something to consider. When I try going through a mess on my E-bike with the FWD motor, I just spin. I don't want to get a call from Mom that she went mudding in her trike and needs me to show up with a winch to pull her out from somewhere 20 miles down the road.

[@mrkentdotcom]

Thank you for your comment Jessica. The XP has a 750 watt motor but just regular tires. Whenever I get bogged down or think I might I just click in higher PA. I didn't mention it in the video but the XP has an aluminum frame, if that's helpful. Have fun spoiling your mother and God bless.

[@mrkentdotcom]

I'm sorry Jessica, I forgot. The XP does only have a 500 watt motor. Thank you for your patience and God bless.

[@deldrader5260]

Well Kent, I think I've got you beat. I live in North Dakota and I'm 83. I received my XP E-trike in May and so far I have over 100 miles on it. I planned on putting it away by the end of October, It's now the 19th of December and I'm still riding. We have had some snow and cold temperatures, but you just put more clothes on. I'm really surprised how well this trike does on snowy streets. I do bring the battery in at night, They say these batteries don't do good if they get too cold. I'm getting about 25 miles per charge. I'm hoping Lectric will come out with a trike with fat tires and maybe a little suspension built in. This one is pretty rough riding . My streets are all dirt. I have a fishing pond about 7 miles away, and I made one tripe out there this fall. Enjoyed the morning out very much. Evidently I'm heavier than you because I only get 11 to 12 mph. I'm not in a hurry anymore. Enjoy that new trike. Sounds like your kid like's it too. Great.

[@mrkentdotcom]

Thank you for your comment and story Del. When I was riding my e-bike, it has fat tires but I learned that they were even smoother with a lower amount of air. I only filled the back tire with about ten pounds of air and the front with about 18 pounds. When I got the trike I decided that with two back tires I could lower their pressure also. I fill them with about 10 or 11 pounds and only about 15 in the front. You might experiment around with that. I don't have any trouble with tires coming off or bottoming out. I hope you are carrying something to pump up your tires if they get a slow leak. If you have any questions about what I use etc. ([e-mail]). If I ride tomorrow I will hit 300 miles, but that's small compared to the over 2000 miles I put on my e-bike. It's been nice meeting you Del. Stay in touch from time to time and have a very merry Christmas. God bless.

My father is 83 years old and in nearly perfect health lately he's been interested in trying a bicycle again

[@mrkentdotcom]

How about that! He is a brave man. If that's his desire, tell him to go for it. Thank you for your comment and God bless.

[@kjelllie4138]

I'm 82 and in May be his age and I bought one. Love it, 17:38 bought it from addmotor it comes on a pallet in 100% good shape! But I think whatever you get, he will love it. 😊 but wear a helmet!
