Velotric Triker Electric Tricycle

I am a 69 year old female with mobility issues. I purchased my trike (Ruby…lol) on 5/25/26 and could not be happier with the decision. I am completely satisfied with its operation, riding comfort, and stability. It has also allowed me to resume biking regularly and meet other bikers/trikers in my community.

I bought another bike from Amazon, it was a disaster. My daughter talked me into going to Martins bikes to see if there was a bike that would work with my physical limitations. The man steered me to the Triker. I have had it just over two weeks. It rides like a dream. It shifts gears smoothly and handles well. I feel it deserves the title of Cadillac Escalade of electric trikes. Expensive, but worth the price.

While I purchased this bike for my wife, I have taken 2 test drives and found it to be easy to pedal even on the lower PSA settings. The gears shift easily and on a steep switchback trail, I tried using just the throttle and the bike easily and smoothly climbed the hill without any effort on my part. Since both my wife and I mainly want to ride to get some non-weight bearing exercise, neither of us will probably utilize any PSA setting above 2 since the higher levels attain higher speeds with little effort at all. The only reason I did not give this bike a 5-star rating was because the instructions on installing the front fender were not clear and the factory had the mounting screws installed on the upper holes of the front fork when the brace needed to be attached on the lower empty holes that I did not notice until 2 days later. And the rear fender brace holes did not easily match up with the holes in the braces, so I had to either bend the fenders a little or bend the braces to properly install the rear fenders. Having said that, If I did not already have a 2-wheel ebike that my wife talked me into buying a few years ago, I would buy a Triker for myself!!

I ordered this trike without even seeing it. My dealer was suppose to get them in but never did. So I ordered from the website and had it in 5 days. I am still learning how to DRIVE it but I know in time it will come naturally on how to drive it. It had everything I wanted in an etrike except that FindMyAndroid was not the app to be able to find it. I have ridden ebikes since 2015 so this was the next step up when I got older (76). It's built very well and there is a lot to learn because it has so much to offer. We plan on hauling it on a small trailer along with my hubby's ebike.

I previously owned a different etrike brand, but after 2500 miles the solid one piece axel sheared clean in half. So I went looking for a better designed product. The Triker is it! The split-axel design feels much more stable especially when turning, and it is already in two pieces so I don't have to worry about it shearing in half. The rear cargo basket is perfect for my 18 lb dog, who always rides with me. We just reached 150 miles on the Triker, and we both love it. I also appreciate the large dealer network-there is a dealer a mile from my house👍🏻I prefer a no-nose seat. The dealer switched the seat at no extra charge, and delivered the assembled trike right to my door.
