Understanding these key features will help you find the perfect electric tricycle for adults.
Motor Power: Ranging from 250W to 750W, higher wattage provides more power for hills and heavy loads. We ensure our motors are powerful enough for real-world conditions.
Battery Range and Life: The heart of your e-trike, batteries offer a range of 50 to 160km. Consider your typical ride distance. Our high-quality cells ensure reliability.
Frame Design and Step-Through Access: A low step-through frame is crucial for easy mounting and dismounting, making every ride more accessible.
Wheel Size and Fat Tyres: Fat tyres (e.g., 20"x4") provide improved stability, grip, and a smoother ride on varied surfaces, from bike paths to gravel tracks.
Braking Systems: Reliable brakes like hydraulic discs are non-negotiable for safety. A parking brake is also a valuable feature for security when loading cargo.
Load Capacity: Check the maximum load capacity if you plan to carry cargo. Some models handle up to 200kg or more, making them genuine shopping vehicles.
Riding Modes: Most e-trikes use a pedal-assist system (PAS) that provides a gentle boost as you pedal, giving you flexible control over your effort. This system is the key to an enjoyable and manageable ride.
Safety Features and Regulations: Look for good lighting and responsive brakes. In Australia, e-trikes generally follow e-bike regulations, with a top speed of 25 km/h. To learn more, you can review the official guidelines for personal mobility devices in Queensland.
