    Dual motor; full suspension; semi-recumbent MeetOneTrike with 180nm torque @ 25 mph

    Yeah I agree in terms of these new electric motors opening up possibilities for entrepreneurs who don't see the need to spend thousands on a vehicle/insurance when their scope/service area doesn't match the cash outlay/risk. 180 Nm of torque likely expands these possibilities in terms of an...

    Dual motor; full suspension; semi-recumbent MeetOneTrike with 180nm torque @ 25 mph

    Even though $3200 is a lot of money for a frame only; it is basically the #1 reason that I purchased the Tour. Everything else can be sourced easily elsewhere. It's all about making it your own. They have perfected the 3 wheeler over there no doubt. Saying that, very few of these 'new' trikes...

    Dual motor; full suspension; semi-recumbent MeetOneTrike with 180nm torque @ 25 mph

    ....I'll take the above one step further to offer that you should probably have more than a grade school shop class education as offered earlier given that very few kids nowadays even ride bikes/trikes let alone work on them. Ditto for cars given the current lack of interest in driving same that...

    It's 6061 aluminum yet something to keep in mind if you unbolt the two halves and modify it.

    It is always a risk and I don't recommend anyone taking it who should not. I have never had a relationship with any company up here beyond calling them as I see them in terms of features that I like. But one person (period) out there on YouTube who even actually has one of these is admittedly...

    Dual motor; full suspension; semi-recumbent MeetOneTrike with 180nm torque @ 25 mph

    ....so we pretty much all agree that there is no reasonably priced trike out there (I paid less than $3200 delivered) in January of 2025 which: > Has two motors allowing unheard of torque > Can carry 550 lbs. > Has suspension both front and rear > Can easily be accessed by the disabled > Has a...

    Dual motor; full suspension; semi-recumbent MeetOneTrike with 180nm torque @ 25 mph

    The beefiness of the overall build is directly related to the weight of the machine which nowhere resembles a golf cart (my other hobby is UTVs or glorified golf carts with turbochargers). I predicted that this would happen from the first page. Not one member here can name a product in...

    Dual motor; full suspension; semi-recumbent MeetOneTrike with 180nm torque @ 25 mph

    (m@robertson) Yeah it's obvious that the product is not particularly well thought out. The Tour is very well thought out indeed. No other trike compares to it at this time. Why do we know this? Whenever it is demanded that an even remotely similar trike be named/compared...crickets. This...

    Dual motor; full suspension; semi-recumbent MeetOneTrike with 180nm torque @ 25 mph

    MeetOne has done something unprecedented with the Tour that I wanted to illustrate below. Look at how low that the seat can be positioned while still allowing easy access via the step through design. Just as striking is the amount of area that the seat can be positioned around the seat post...

    Dual motor; full suspension; semi-recumbent MeetOneTrike with 180nm torque @ 25 mph

    It is interesting to me that Grin seems to promote the K.I.S.S. principle as well (one single powerful motor/control) when referring to the popular CAT trikes which I seem to remember as being much lighter recumbent tadpoles. While I can appreciate the dual motor Tour as designed for the...

    Dual motor; full suspension; semi-recumbent MeetOneTrike with 180nm torque @ 25 mph

    The other (major for me) feature that I believe is currently keeping the naysayers away from this thread is definitely the front and rear suspension that the Tour boasts. So many manufacturers have simply depended on the now standard 4" tires to satisfy customers in this department. Believe me...

    Dual motor; full suspension; semi-recumbent MeetOneTrike with 180nm torque @ 25 mph

    I really like the time that these guys from Grin take to explain their product and the base physics of their motors. I'm guessing that nobody with any knowledge whatsoever concerning a two-motor system is coming up here to compare one motor to two (the Tour) due to: 1) There is nothing out there...

    Dual motor; full suspension; semi-recumbent MeetOneTrike with 180nm torque @ 25 mph

    (Back to the topic of this groundbreaking trike): One of the biggest things intriguing me on this MeetOne Tour trike is the bolted frame midship. I can't even imagine how easy it will be to lengthen that frame to literally the exact custom fit needed for any rider or even multiple. Great design...

    From my communications to date with MeetOne; everything seems to still be on schedule for late January. My spare battery will ship separate with everything else shipping in the trike/parts box. Here's a list of what I picked up less the battery and trike covers: Order summary MeetOne...

    Update regarding my (required) due diligence: I have been blessed to do many things in my life by God's grace and trusting my fellow man often in far away places. A few minutes ago, I received a letter from MeetOne which gave me confidence in my purchase and excitement for what is to come. This...

    ....also sent in for information to become a distributor. Please advise if you are aware of anyone who received the first run of Tours that the guy in the YouTube video continually refers to. He has claimed at least twice that this original batch sold out and that the pre-order has as wellI, I...
