    My first Mid Drive

    My first Mid Drive

    I have built a couple of adult eTrikes that were loose parts in a two-foot by two-foot box that was ten inches thick. No instructions. One woman clicked a box at checkout for in-home assembly. Three guys, three times went out and failed before she called me for a home visit. I have put together...
