Looking for some input! I am selling my 2 wheel e-bike (due to fear of falling) and I've been researching trikes. There were 5 on my list - the IZIP Tristar Plus (Same as the Raleigh Tristar IE), the Pedego Trike, The Bintelli Trio, The Evelo Compass, and the Bolton Galaxy. My thoughts have been...
The Bintelli is noticeably heavier and has no chain guard or parking brakes. The Bolton I know nothing about. The Evelo is the most expensive by far, and has 24" wheels all around. The Pedego seems to have a loyal following but has a front hub motor and seems like it would have less power up hills. The IZIP/Raleigh is the brand I had for my 2-wheeler and I loved it. There is an authorized dealer an hour away who could do warranty work. It has a mid drive motor which seems the best. I am in the 60s, overweight and out of shape, and will be using it locally on back road, some of which are gravel, and at our local state park. Any input? If I buy any of the other 4 brands, what do I do if I have a warranty situation and have no dealers anywhere around?
