    Groundbreaking *4 wheel* simplicity???

    If it could be outfitted as such easily, I would prefer a top of the line Bosch or similar mid-drive myself. So much easier to work on and to get parts for in the future. Not sure where they are power/torque-wise nowadays for this style of a bike yet I'd want the largest that they made and to...

    Groundbreaking *4 wheel* simplicity???

    An alternative application guide for the above motor: Single Side Applications A unique feature of the front All-Axle hub design is its ability to work in applications requiring a single side mount. This allows the side wheels of trikes and quads to be readily electrified for the first time...

    Groundbreaking *4 wheel* simplicity???

    Thanks for the info on how these Grins operate. As for the market killing R&D?....tanked it has. I think that a lot of 'manufacturers' selling anything China-made here in the U.S. have sadly underestimated the carnage about to unfold very soon. I would have been fire-sale moving absolutely...

    Groundbreaking *4 wheel* simplicity???

    Didn't now that the twist throttle worked that way on the Grin and have never previously heard of the concept. I also wasn't sure about the alternative axle positioning use so thanks for confirming. Not sure what I'd be getting in to as I haven't studied the rear differential or even how the...

    Groundbreaking *4 wheel* simplicity???

    Design-wise, I have no problem with the thing save for what we are paying in today's market for seemingly much more/much better suspended and powerful; even when talking 2 wheels versus four which I'll still stand behind given what I've seen out there to date shipped free to my door (personal...

    Groundbreaking *4 wheel* simplicity???

    I'll be happy if she rides this even two or three times and pretends to like it. If she had owned/ridden many trike motorcycles, scooters and a CanAm...I would have already ordered the motor above and a Harley two-up seat with tassels.. ;)

    Groundbreaking *4 wheel* simplicity???

    I need some help here in terms of this alternative design motor ever fitting on this quadricycle. At the 2:37 mark he mentions applications beyond the standard fork style fit. What do you think of the motor (period) and would it be a good fit for this quadricycle burdened by the California...

    Groundbreaking *4 wheel* simplicity???

    I might have been seeing things...yet in one of those first parking lot videos; he's going in and out of some shadows moving towards the camera person not making any really drastic moves just swerving a bit. It was pretty clear to me that when he broke the shadow one of those times; one of the...

    Here's the latest on that crash above involving the quadricycle's cousin; the reverse etrike:

    Groundbreaking *4 wheel* simplicity???

    Interesting to see this in 1st gear(?) at maximum pedal assist (5?) and how much pedal effort is (seemingly) being exerted to make it up that hill. I have yet to witness a camera view yet which gives any hill the justice that it deserves. What it might be showing though are the obvious upper...

    Here's the 3-wheel (reverse trike) in action: I think that I'll stick with my plan to lower the seat...a lot.

    https://www.treatland.tv/puch-maxi-racer-seat-p/maxi-racer-seat.htm Now how cool are all of these and exactly what I've been looking for!!! :) Thank you my friend!!! Maybe it's just nostalgia driven by my banana seat bicycle days yet I love my Soletri's seat and really hate the little triangles...

    Groundbreaking *4 wheel* simplicity???

    ...I must be tough to satisfy as I really haven't been with the last two electrics purchased in terms of wanting to make wholesale changes right away. Saying that, I really like my Soletri despite not having had chance to do a thing with it. Maybe this Anyterrain needs an extended old-fashioned...

    Groundbreaking *4 wheel* simplicity???

    I think that I said it earlier, yet I just want something that has the opportunity to carry me in to an advanced age (God willing) versus spilling me all over the road. If I'm not sitting down somehow under just as many wheels as possible(?) I don't know how that happens. If I can't limp/gimp my...

    Groundbreaking *4 wheel* simplicity???

    Yep I forgot to add that the photo was of an Addmotor 'M360' I believe yet they call it something else now like 'Artisean'(?) or something similar and added a rear differential as compared to earlier models. I think that I mentioned that I had the original Addmotor front hub motor Soletri (now...

    Groundbreaking *4 wheel* simplicity???

    Purchased. It's supposedly being produced right now overseas with spots still open on that first January shipment as of this week. I'll ride it around whether there's snow on the ground or not yet don't expect much of a review. I'm too old/opinionated and (apparently) finding out the hard way...

    Groundbreaking *4 wheel* simplicity???

    I love state/local control yet it sure did screw over 6030 in equipping the motor/battery needed here. How you put two people on this and go anywhere of significance is beyond me unless you over-inflate the tires and at least one is a very young child. We've got to get these spare battery work...

    Groundbreaking *4 wheel* simplicity???

    That is exactly what I said. Most of us have seen the same basic design in more complicated machines yet I've not seen it in a basic form. When they (or whoever gets there first for possibly less) get the recumbent-style center of gravity issue down, look out. If you look at others who have...

    Groundbreaking *4 wheel* simplicity???

    A few things that I figured out from watching the videos: They apparently didn't put a larger motor in it due to California's limitations of some sort. There are plans to use that space behind the seat for a passenger's feet (see the rear seat mention above). A video was released today that...
