Got a recumbent trike the ICE Sprint X 26 Tour about a year ago. Alot more fun since added a 250W bafang motor to it recently giving about 80 mile range per charge. Before getting the motor the trike just felt too slow climbing hills compared to my bicycles.
I had the bafang 750w 48v on my catrike speed recumbent trike, top speed 53 mph, I found i pedal less and used the thumb throttle too much... I ended up removing it and defeated my purpose of getting a recumbent trike. There is no suspension with the heavy battery... wasn't worth it in the end.
