    Current etrike offerings and buying tips

    Yes, when my wife gets tired she uses the motor only. When starting out she pedals with assist from the motor. This trike also has a coaster brake which works very well when coasting downhill. My wife also keeps the speed under 10 mph.

    Best e-trike for neighborhood hil

    The easiest way to load the Liberty into an SUV is to loosen the handlebars and fold them down. Then lift the rear wheels into the SUV, then lift the front and roll it into your SUV. You will have to fold the back seat down.

    Best e-trike for neighborhood hil

    Check out the Liberty Trike. My wife has one. She keeps the speed under 11 mph. It has a coaster brake and a front disc brake. There is no derailleur. There are 5 power settings and a throttle. This is about a simple as it comes. As with all trikes, slow down when turning. It handles hills...
