I definitely have a trike on my bucket list. I don’t know what I’m gonna do with it. I’m going to have to get a shed or shipping container soon. Another great review, again very detailed. I love it when you do reviews.
They go a bit slower , but seem like they could hold a lot of cargo. Like groceries. And i think they would be less likely to be stolen since its heavy and trikes are “Not cool “ or undesirable to many thieves .
Just ordered my aqua green TK1 5 min ago. It was in stock on their site but not Amazon. $1599 now and was $1799 2 months ago. Plus got 5% off with code first time buyer. No charged sales tax like Amazon either. Not all colors were available but this is my favorite. For $200 more than this one I felt it was worth it.
Richard, thanks for another great review. That film on the display should come off. I had to use an X-acto knife to pull up one corner to get it off of the display of my MC350 which is the same display as this trike. It would have been helpful if MoonCool had included a little tab to aid in removal.
Thanks. I thought it should come off like all the other brand ebikes I have received, but scratching at it and trying to get it to peel wasn't working so I started thinking it was permanent. I have had a couple like that now. I'll try again with a razor blade. Thanks again.
A number of other reviewers have said that the TK1 fat tire trike is one of the worst bikes ever because of how hard it is to assemble. What is your opinion about assembling it for somebody that has no mechanical experience, tools, or because of their age or disability? Lots of great reviews and I love your channel! Thank you
Can I ask what you think about ordering this for my son who has autism and epilepsy. He used to ride a bike when he was 3 but for many years has not. Have tried many styles/types of bikes but he def needs a trike
What color is this trike? I went to the mooncool website but their blue color does not look like this one being reviewed above. I really like the color of the trike being reviewed and want to order the right one.
Could I fit this into my Cherokee with the seats down, if I remove seat and handlebar? I know there's a folding version, but sounds like the TK1Fat is better overall than the standard TK1.
I see from watching most of your reviews you seem to be not a fan of lectric ebikes. I was going to get my girl friend the Xpremium because it was mid drive with torque sensor but bought her the hey bike horizon instead. Seems to be a very nice riding and looking bike. I don't see Xpremium for sale any more. Do you know the story behind that? You play with a lot of bikes. Good info for the public. Thanks.
Maybe the TK1 would be better for our son who has autism? But I DO love the fat tire. Do you think he could just pedal it standard without using the e assist. I’m scared he’d hit the assist and go flying…..😮
Thank you so much for your reviews. I'm going to purchase an etrike very soon. First-time buyer. Have you heard of Gobike trikes and done a review on them? Am 95 percent sold on mooncool, and I'm just wondering if Gobike is just as good. Style is the same and price. Hope you this. 14:52 this this
I have heard of Gobike and communicated some with the owner but he stopped responding to me. The bikes look good, the specs seem good. But I can't recommend it until I try it. You would be happy with Mooncool, most people are very satisfied from what i hear. If you decide to go that route, I have an affiliate link and discount code in each of my Mooncool video descriptions.
Gee, no mention o estimatedf range in comparison with similar trykes. Cheap is cheap and stranded is stranded so I would hope for estimated average 25 miles at least. Okay maybe not stranded but strenuous pedaling. Maybe always have an expensive battery backup which defeats the low price? Other than that missing info and charge time, seems like a useful toy toy.
Hard to say. Its different so I like them both for different reasons. The TK1 is a lot more powerful, so I like that. It also has brake lights, blinkers etc. Its also more stable, so I like that too. But the Fat 20 has 7 speed gears so its more fun to pedal at a higher speed. If you like to pedal fast, go with the Fat 20 for sure. If you like slower speeds, the TK1 is the better option.
Got mine but keep getting error e019 any idea what this is in can throttle it the them wheel just stops then I can gas it again rinse and repeat it is like I get little burst.
For $1400 you can't beat it's alot better than the Electra the only two shortcomings l see is no parking brakes and front wheel hub definitely worth it... BE SAFE.....
Agreed. They put parking brakes on the TK1 batch that is coming in a couple of weeks, I hope they also put them on the Fat 20 when they get new stock. Agree, the front hub is a bit of a downer but I have been riding it a lot and unless its wet grass or really loose grave, I have not noticed it.

The price changes frequently on this model. Glad you scooped one up, I suspect they will run out quickly, they only have a limited supply coming in.

Looks like it would be more stable if you pump the tires up to its max. Would make it less bouncy.

What about 12 percent grade hills? What's the slope rating on this?
Gee, no mention o estimatedf range in comparison with similar trykes. Cheap is cheap and stranded is stranded so I would hope for estimated average 25 miles at least.

You are now Mr Trike. You should change the channel name to E-Trike Reviews and Adventures. 😄😁😆
LOL, thinking about starting a trike channel.
do you like this better than the new tk 1 folding version?
Hard to say. Its different so I like them both for different reasons. The TK1 is a lot more powerful, so I like that. It also has brake lights, blinkers etc. Its also more stable, so I like that too. But the Fat 20 has 7 speed gears so its more fun to pedal at a higher speed. If you like to pedal fast, go with the Fat 20 for sure. If you like slower speeds, the TK1 is the better option.

Great review!
Thanks!! I appreciate the feedback.
Good video great review
Much appreciated.
MY THROTTLE DOES NOT WORK HOW CAN I FIX IT?
This Trike seen nice.
But there customer support is awful.
I have contacted them 4 times and I get no response. Guess they don't want to make a sale.
Thanks!
Thanks Mark!!!! Its appreciated.
will your $1500 electic trike go farther than my $300 gas trike? 1 charge vs 1 tank.
Are you wanting to compare apples with okra?
not really. mine is a $150 trike with a $150 engine on it. just transportationa maybe pull a bike camp trailer once in awhile.@@EbikeReviews

7 speed nice
I don't really sue it. But its nice not ghost pedaling at the higher speeds.
I guess others agree with you cause this trike is sold out.
I .would like 1
Front hub motor is a deal breaker.
Good morning Richard how are you and Toby doing? Give Toby a big belly rub for me enjoy your day.❤❤❤❤❤
