An interesting point and I guess frame configurations are always a consideration when installing internal derailleur hubs. However, going from a 6 speed to a 1 speed seems a little steep of a change. Shimano has the bigger name and more companies align themselves with Shimano and then you...

If a Bafang motor fails it is most likely going to be a result of its hard plastic gears breaking or shearing and not its electronics. All I would do is replace the gears which are not that difficult to do. Bafang has continually increased its motor's quality which is why it is so popular and...

Fitting it in your garage is certainly a serious consideration. No online dimensions. I would think the lower part of the back seat just lifts up.

The Voltbike Trio components look good except for the Shimano Tourney. Why they didn't use the Altus I can't understand. The Tourney is noticeably of less quality than the Altus. Good luck. Dave

One video which inspired me to purchase tools and repair my own trikes was Bike Garage: I ended up buying the DVD on ebay. However, like you said there are many available videos online which provide steps in repairing or changing out various parts of your trike. In regards to addmotor...

Alan Glad to be of help. I have neuropathy of my lower extremities and I can sympathize with your wife as I kept falling off my Trek (non-electric). Now I have several e-trikes and I love them for triking along the ocean for miles on end. Best of luck to you! Dave

I have no personal experience with the iZip E3 GO trike other than check it out online when I was looking and you being a well known member are probably familar with the iZip E3 Go 2017 review of the trike by EBR: as well as the overall review by Court...

Colin I couldn't find the new one you mentioned at electric trike. I have never heard of Daymak but I looked on their site at the one you mentioned and it looks pretty good. It has a Bafang 500W motor in the front and a 48volt 20ah battery which is remarkable. It has most of what you want and...

Colin You have some good questions. Let me start with the seat: Brown version...

You'll have to keep everyone informed about the Evelo Compass. As a result of lower extremity neuropathy I had to go to an electric trike. However, it's nice to stop at a stop sign and not have to get off my trike. I can't get onto the beach through the soft sand on tires which are much less...

There is a lot to like about the Evelo Compass but I ruled against it because of it only being a 3 speed, its 2.4 inch tires so it is not a fat trike (3.8 inch wide is the minimum for being labeled a fat trike), battery placement among other things but everyone has their own criteria. In any...

I have a Liberty Trike (purchased May 2018) and two Addmotor Trikes M-330 (purchased Aug 2018) and the M-360 (recently purchased). I absolutely love the M-330 and have ridden it for 1500 miles. The Liberty Trike is okay (I have ridden it for 330 miles) but the tires are not wide enough for...

I was not nitpicking but simply clarifying. The M-360 is not a chopper under any circumstances. It appears that you may have overlooked the first Webster definition listed of "chopper" which was "customized". As stated in Wikipedia under "Bicycle Chopper", "....a bought 'chopper' is not a...

Okay, however you want to define it for yourself using your own personal definitions. I'll use Court's defining experience and the company's description and intent. So let's just leave it there. In any case, it is a new design promoted initially by Trivel and reviewed by Court for EBR in...

The Liberty Trike is more tippy primarily because it is only 24 inches wide. When crossing angled driveways or rough terrain one has to be more careful with the Liberty Trike. The Addmotor trikes I own are wider and less likely to tip. I have ridden these trikes over 2000 miles over the last...

The Addmotor M-360 arrived a few days ago. It is about 76” long and 32” wide. The bar which you have to go over to sit on it is 26 inches as Rich C suggested. However, it is not at all a problem mounting the seat on the trike which I and Rich thought it might be. The seat is adjustable and...

Addmotor just informed me that they have shipped me the M-360 so rather than discuss hypotheticals I'll have the real thing and I'll provide some details on its performance and measurements. Of course, for me, an important aspect of it --- how will it do in sand since the M-330 does nicely in...

And I'll have some more experience with Addmotor and the M-360 which I will report here. Now that Electric Trike is getting into the mix it will make it more interesting. I'm interested in seeing their specs on motor and battery. It is not 26 inches. It is maybe the same size as the tire...

See my response on page 2 regarding my experience with Addmotor and the M-330 (not the 360 since it isn't out yet). Hope you purchased one at $1599 if you wanted it because it is now $1899 and it will be higher in a few days.
