My wife would love this as she has balance issues. My concern is the rather small electrical system - 250 watts. I would love to see this bike with 500-750 watts
Very interresting introduction video. I`d like to buy the trike in Germany! Conzept is great, coz trikes r always to high in seat, so there is a danger in driving bend. A deeper u seat, as more sure u r on the street! Thatswhy i think the conzept "longer & deeper" ist great. My opinian is: 22" fat tires front, 2x 20" fat tires in back. The Standard-Trike-Design means to be powerfull in sitting position. When there`s electric power, the design should be comfortable, like this pedego trike. Regards from Stuttgart/Germany
This is a very well thought out trike. It places you at the height of traffic and upright riding position for good visibility. Designed for shopping and doing away with the car in city living and suburban living. As to a comment about it being too slow. That is not it's purpose. As to being geriatric, it's a bike designed for picking up your shopping not for riding with your mates in lycra. Too nerdy? I think car owners are nerdy with their attitude, but each to their own. Great video, great trike.
Hey Peter! I agree, the trike performed well and serves a set purpose very well. It looks cool, has a unique basket, I love the lights and appreciate that Pedego listened to their customers and tried to deliver a product that's more about an experience than a list of numbers and specs (regarding the lower speed)
Cool trike! I'd like one. I want so many E-bikes and E-trikes now! I mentioned the Lithium Super 73, and I'd also like your analysis of the Phantom Vision and/or Phantom Shadow.
I'm told 250w isn't great for hills? How much assembly required? I'd prefer if you started with its price as I find its design interesting but if it's not in my budget it's not in my budget.
Why aren’t there any locking cargo boxes. Being and RVer. On my regular bike I’ve gone shopping my helmet has been stolen while I’m in the store.. If I stop and several stores etc... and leave a bag in the cargo box I’d like it secure..
Will this e tricycle get me up steep paved roads? I weigh 168 lbs, I'm not athletic, and am 56 yrs. I live in a country estate with several steep hills. Please let me know.
These bikes are great. But for most seniors the price is prohibitive and health insurance will not help pay. I would love to have one instead of the hit and miss of a scooter at the Walmart or other stores. Large front basket would make it perfect.
Small detail. I can see in the video that trike has an old fashioned "pillar" seat post - with the clamp built into the seat instead of the end of the post. Like an old Schwinn - or some modern electric scooters. I don't think you will find a suspension seat post that fits that seat. If you find a suspension seat post with the right diameter, I think you'll need a new seat too.
Why is that protrusion thing on the front of the seat? Is there one on your office chair or computer chair at work? How about the kitchen chairs at home? Do you have it on your car seat or the chair at the restaurant? Please explain or do you have an optional seat available without that protrusion thing?
My only complaint will be the sit. That's actually the problem I have with the bicycles, they have this very uncomfortable sit that hurts in a long ride. A little wider sit would be perfect! I'm over 60 :)
I meant to ask what other colors do you have besides this color I would like to be a nice bright color if you have to ride your bike somewhere for emergency at night like a neon yellow or a bright color for Shiny Bright color and the part where the reflector on the back of the bike rack carrier does it also flash so people can see it flashing sometimes I was just curious about that too if both of my spellings are off on either one that's okay you understand
1 more thing about the speed of these is the battery size what depicts the speed or is the battery strictly for run time ? What does affect speed ? And since you do reviews what if someone who didn't feel he could balance a 2 wheeler but wanted some balls with His bike where would he look ? Thanks again David
Great video! I just purchased a custom work trike that I'm having a hard time being able to balance it, which I wasn't expecting. It's outfitted with a cabinet between the two back wheels--which appear to be of similar width as yours. For a beginner, what would you recommend? I kinda wanna widens the rear axle for better stability. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
A nice trike but a little pricey for senior citizens on a fixed income. Not worth more than $1,500-$1,800, $3,000 is too high. There are plenty of older people who would buy this bike if the price were reasonable. In the long run they will make more money if they brought the price down to just under $2,000 at least. Why do they have to charge so much? Forces older people to settle with a motorized wheel chair for $400-$500.
@gina farrell The price is on point for what you are getting. The last non-electric mountain bike I bought with similar components was close to $4000 Cdn. An electric mountain bike these days is listing at $8000. It’s like trying to sell a Mercedes for the price of a Ford Fiesta. You are paying for the quality of the workmanship, the engineering, the technology and the quality of the components. There are cheaper electric trikes out there and it basically boils down to “You get what you pay for”.
@@CZFanGrrl schwinn sells a pedal powered bike at wallymart for 288 and those are the same brakes and seat on it. how can a battery, a couple of gears and a motor cost 2700?
I like the idea where you keep the battery in and locked up and then you can plug it in the charger but what they said that is they should have took in a cord that can stretch out of the battery and you can plug it up into any outlet but has to be a long extension cord connect to the battery and then when you pull it you hold onto it so goes right back in nicely in here turn the circle rail to lock it in place to keep water from getting into the plug 2 can this fit inside of apartment door is what make sure + 3 stop plastic curing rack on the back can you carry like maybe 1 or 2 recyclable bags of cans to help out the environment to make a little extra money I was just wondering and three thank you for wearing a bike helmet and tell people wear bike helmet to be safe not to be sorry and yes bike helmets to save lives I seen it happen sometimes they don't always say sliced but it's best to wear a helmet in anyway and I wish you people would get with the government and tell people we're going to make a new law that you have to wear a bike helmet or skateboard helmet or rollerblades helmets all the time Ross it's your ticket for not having one on all countries and all states phone until the meantime I wish this was the neon yellow by do you like this color but I wish it was a neon yellow or the train wreck on the back I wish it was a neon yellow to blend in with this color of three wheel bike one more thing I want to have all those places to put your phones or tablets on cuz I got phone case.

proper step through helps women in pencil skirts! you should cover different attire with your bike reviews. flowing skirts, pencil skirts, flare wide leg trousers, long coats...
I have a question about this brand how much is it and can I get the basket to convert into a seat for my 1-year-old son I want it to be able to carry groceries but I also wanted to be able to take my child with me this would be my car basically looking for a electric bicycle that's going to help me go to the store and help me go to work take my son to daycare it needs to have all the bells and whistles for whatever price it is I'm interested in this could you answer my questions
i have a lot of retired friends that would love this but it is not at all in their price range in our country of Canada(ad 300 to every 1000$) , sad cause those people would make a hell of a target group, that would be able to use it maybe 5 months a year lol onless they put chains on the tires
i sell quality electric conversion kits for all bikes and wheel sizes. you can cheaply buy a kit from me and have a local bike shop quickly and cheaply install it. 1993travis@gmail.com email me if interested
My question was about its power, then I saw a discussion below but didn't answer my question, Do you give up power/mph with the Trike compared to the 2 wheeler version ? I am 6"4' 250 but have lupus & severe neuropathy so I am looking for a why to get out , anyways can this be outfitted with a sun shade/roof etc. ? Thanks David
That plastic basket adds unnecessary weight/noise. A ballistic nylon cargo container w/ mesh, zippered closures and rain guard would be great for carrying children/pets.
Jeez, I don't think most of these things work, every vid I click on it's folks standing there talking about them! I want to see them go, fast! And why do they all cycle them with the pedals at the same time, even down hill? That's the whole fecking point about an e bike isn't it, no pedalling?
$3,000 this is not a car, that price is price gouging. lower price sells more high price sells less I hope Sondors comes out with an affordable one for everyone
Why do None of these makers use people who are actually the ones that buy these trikes? This whiney pansy boy is Not the example a disabled senior who worked const. His whole life would be impressed by. You need physical therapists and injured outdoorsmen to endorse it. I'm 61 6'0" 220lbs spinal cord injury and pending total hip replacement...

hello,fun...... lol, does it even have an exclamation mark 11 mph, also you know you can get 1000w, even 2000W motors that can operate at 250W, 11 mph, jesus, i think mine does about 45 mph , i dont know how those store brands can thrive when china is selling motors for 200 and batteries for 200 aswell but here we are!
11 miles per hour. lets see I live 11 miles to store 11 miles back 30 minute shopping so that means two and a half hours! no wayl not worth $3.000 dollars.
*Very well made **Latest.Bike** , looks sporty and performance is awesome I love this machine! It also rides like a Cadillac So you'll love it to!*

Ideal for an older person who may have balance problems and some arthritis and who cannot afford to crash and burn (like break more brittle bones).

Cool trike! I'd like one. I want so many E-bikes and E-trikes now! I mentioned the Lithium Super 73, and I'd also like your analysis of the Phantom Vision and/or Phantom Shadow.
The M340's ergonomic design and adjustable components provide a personalized fit and maximum comfort for riders.
Basically a VERY good idea. It has some nice features such as the quite sizable "trunk". However, way too expensive and more than a little too slow.
You could put a couple of bags of ice in the back with your wine coolers and your all set. LOL

Nice bike! I'd love to have one, however, price is not in my budget. 🙁
Great city substitute for scooters. Great for inner city commuting.

If you find a suspension seat post with the right diameter, I think you'll need a new seat too.
I think you could have a flip cover for the display and the box should have a cover in case of rain so your things don't get wet and damaged.

Do you have it on your car seat or the chair at the restaurant? Please explain or do you have an optional seat available without that protrusion thing?
Dude........love your reviews! Plus you are so cute.....love ur energy.

You can buy the type you prefer and swap them.
