Velotric Triker Electric Tricycle [Velotric]

Overview

The Velotric Triker is a folding electric tricycle designed for comfort, stability, and utility — perfect for riders who prefer a stable three-wheel platform over a traditional two-wheeled e-bike. With a powerful 750 W rear hub motor, torque-sensor pedal assist (or cadence mode), and a robust build capable of carrying heavy loads, the Triker offers a mix of performance, practicality, and ease of use. Its low step-through frame, cushioned seat with backrest, and adjustable ergonomics make it accessible to a wide range of riders.

Power, Motor & Battery

• 750 W rear hub motor (up to 1,300 W peak) delivering 90 Nm torque — strong enough for hills and heavier loads.
• 48 V battery pack (≈ 804 Wh capacity) — provides solid range and consistent assistance over longer rides.
• Pedal-assist with selectable SensorSwap™ (torque or cadence sensor) for either natural feel or easy cruising.
• Throttle mode available — convenient when you want a motor-only ride without pedaling effort.
• Configurable riding modes: “Beginner Mode” caps top speed at ~8 mph for safer, gentler rides; “Standard Mode” allows top assist up to ~20 mph (depending on local regulations and setup).

Drivetrain, Wheels & Stability

• Shimano 7-speed drivetrain with 40T chainring and 11–28T cassette — gives flexibility for hills, mixed terrain, or easier pedaling when assist is off or minimal.
• Kenda 20″ × 3.0″ puncture-resistant tires on double-wall alloy rims — wide, stable contact patch improves balance and traction on pavement or light gravel.
• Wide rear-wheel spacing with a rear-wheel differential — helps maintain stability during turns and reduces tipping common to three-wheelers.
• Hydraulic suspension fork with ~80 mm travel and lockout — absorbs bumps and improves comfort over uneven surfaces or rough roads.

Comfort, Frame & Utility

• Step-through aluminum alloy frame — low standover height for easy mounting and dismounting.
• Cushy saddle with adjustable backrest, swept-back handlebar on 180° adjustable stem — ergonomic posture for relaxed riding.
• Foldable frame and collapsible stem — makes storage or transport easier when needed.
• Full-size rear cargo basket (with included liner) and integrated rear rack — supports cargo, groceries, shopping, or gear for errands or utility riding.
• Generous total payload capacity — supports up to ~500 lb (rider + cargo), making it practical for heavy riders or carrying loads.

Brakes, Lights & Safety Features

• Hydraulic disc brakes front and rear with 180 mm rotors and motor-cutoff — reliable stopping power even under load or speed.
• Integrated lighting system: bright headlight, rear brake light, turn signals — improves safety and visibility during day or night rides.
• Parking-brake function and secure battery lock — adds convenience and theft deterrence when parked.
• Stable and planted ride feel thanks to trike layout, wide tires, solid frame, and balanced weight distribution — ideal for riders concerned about balance or stability.

Ride Experience & Use Cases

The Triker offers a comfortable, confidence-inspiring ride, especially for those who prefer stability over the dynamic balance required for two-wheeled e-bikes. It’s well suited for urban commuting, grocery runs, errands, or leisure rides around town. The strong motor and torque make it capable of handling hills or heavier riders/cargo without strain. The adjustable assist modes (from gentle beginner settings to full 20 mph assist) make it accessible for new riders, seniors, or anyone who values control and safety — while still offering enough power and range for longer rides when desired.

Who It’s For

The Velotric Triker is ideal for riders who value stability, comfort, and practicality over sporty performance — senior riders, those with limited balance, riders carrying cargo or heavy loads, or anyone wanting a smooth, easy-to-ride electric tricycle for commuting and errands. It’s also a great choice for first-time e-bike/trike buyers or riders transitioning from cars/tricycles who want a stable, capable e-mobility solution without sacrificing power or functionality.
