thinking very seriously about a "trikker" will the price increase on trikes already at the warehouse in the US?
 
Depends on seller. I wouldn't blame a retailer for pricing at whatever the market will bear.

true what I am considering is how much the "Trumpets" tariffs will raise the price of stuff made in China(henco in Chin)
 
If it is anything like gasoline the price will go up immediately. They don't wait to raise the price till they get the more expensive load. They get a head start and don't lower it until the higher priced gasoline is gone either. It is called capitalisium.
 
Prices also increase in riding season. One might be hit with a double whammy come springtime. Though maybe not, if demand is down.
 
I'd wait till it calms down, no one wants these tariffs, its just gamesmanship.
Trumpy has gone so rogue that even DeNiro has changed his mind on him.
Were just laying low.
 
got the trike,do not think the tariffs will be quite as bad as everyone dreaded( hopefully)
 
May of 2024, the Biden Administration increased tariffs by 11-16% on lithium-ion battery packs from China. The Trump Administration has increased tariffs by 10%. Seems like last year's increase bumped prices up to a degree, but retail prices of ebikes, from the big brands eventually came down by the fall of 2024. We will likely see the same with this increase. Between late fall and late winter, for the 11 years I've been involved with ebikes, has been the best time to buy. Buy now! I just did... again:)

Good luck with your new trike!
