I would love to try one of those Tregos. But they are not in the USA. Are they even available in Europe? Anyone ever seen one in the wild?

You cannot convert a non tilting trike to a tilting one, unless you have some high level fabrication skills. What is your actual goal, here? If you want a trike because you can’t balance on two wheels, the tilting is going to mean balancing three, which is no easier than two - in fact it’s...

I have MS and I have been riding a Liberty Trike for years. Honestly the front hub motor is not the thing that bugs me. I mean, yeah, I have had wheelspin many times. But it’s never been that hard to recover from. The thing that drives me nuts, is that it has little short kiddy cranks, and I...

The refurb I bought was perfect and came with everything a normal one has. It had one mile on the odometer. They are the same trikes, just ones that other people returned. But you might have to wait and watch for your color to show up. Sounds like you are waiting anyway, and the refurb might...

Grandma Bobbie, note the listing on the Liberty Trike site, for refurbished trikes. They sell returned trikes there at a discount. That is how I bought my second, saved a couple hundred that way. They don’t always have refurbs available but if you keep watch they come along. Just noting...

Kerrith, I hope you can get your issues sorted out! FWIW I have not attempted to contact Addmotor support at all since none of the parts I wanted were on their site, and based on what I am reading here they don’t sound very helpful. But I have owned a number of trikes, I keep swapping to...

After reading the accounts of Addmotor frames breaking, I made a specific point of examining mine. The welds all look pretty good. The paint (or perhaps it is powder coat?) is clean and flawless. It seems well manufactured. Some things are odd, though, like they took a previous frame design...

I bought one. It was not my first choice but the Evelo trike I ordered last spring is still delayed. (Haven’t yet decided whether to cancel it.) Anyways I am setting up the Addmotor trike to suit myself. I removed the little wooden footrest since my idiot feet get tangled up in it. I will...

This was a comedy of errors. I ordered a replacement battery from Liberty Trike. When it came it was the wrong size, did not fit. Called their support and it turns out they changed the size since my trike was new. They said they send a replacement battery box but I did not make that...

I talked to their support and they said the battery size changed, and when you order a replacement battery from the Liberty Trike site, there Is an option to have them send a new battery box at no extra charge. BUT this option is buried under “charger”. I pointed out to them that this is a...

I now have 650 miles on my first Liberty Trike. My neighbor persuaded me to sell my second Liberty Trike to him. He wanted one for his mom and they were out of stock. His mom loves it, he reports she has made a ton of neighborhood friends while riding around on it, so it’s all good. And...

I now have about 650 miles. Doesn’t sound like much but when you consider it’s all within a few blocks of home, this is three years of riding almost every day, even in winter. I now have my first serious problem. The battery stopped working. I ordered a new one and it arrived today. It does...

So I got it all put together and working. The hub motor from E-Bike kits, with the 9-speed freewheel, did not fit in my frame but when I scaled back to a 7-speed freewheel it worked fine. I got a 48V Super Shark battery from EM3EV, and Grin's Bottle Bobs to mount it. And that Amazon reviewer...

The GenZe has been popular enough that I was thinking again about getting a second in a smaller size. But when I went back to the site, the prices had increased by about $300 across the board. I guess my timing was good, when I got the one I got. Guess I will wait on getting a second; if the...

The GenZe arrived yesterday. As I said in my last message, it has 600+ miles on it and was therefore one of the cheapest in the sale. Well, it arrived in a new looking box and when we took it out it was immaculate. The scratches were inventoried on the sale page and are as described. Frankly...

Just wanted to praise your "Trusted Advertisers" section. I know that selling ads is what pays the bills at many websites and I don't mind being advertised to. But I have been forced to install ad blockers due to all the sites that just sign up with some random service, and let unvetted...

I recently sold my last motorcycle and decided to use some of what I got for it, to expand my little fleet of e-bikes. I myself am riding electric trikes due to disability but since I have had more than one trike I have been taking friends out on the bike paths and the companionship has been...

I like the shrinkwrap - that is clever! But the machined aluminum pieces are the real gem. I went to their site and found them, and I see I can avoid the Canada shipping time/cost; they also make them available through Amazon Prime. Nice! I put them on my wish list so I can find again to...

Well I eventually ruled out the mid-drive; the frame is just too much of a problem. I also decided the coaster brake and IGH are lousy for me, so I want to swap that hub anyways. So, hub motor it is. I decided to go with a known quantity. I ordered a trike kit from E-bikeKits, for a rear...

Hello Birdwatcher! I am going through similar thought processes just slightly ahead of you, so I understand your confusion. It is hard to get up to speed, SO much info flying around! I'm going to try to answer you on the level where you (and I) are. The kit you had, is what they call a "hub...
