- The Electric Bike Technologies Electric Fat Tire Trike is a fat-tire front hub-motor powered electric trike that is purpose built for backwoods adventures or anything else you can come up with thanks to its powerful motor and large cargo rack in the rear. Comfortable as well as capable with the ergonomic grips, Velo comfort saddle, approachable step-through frame, suspension seat post, and front suspension fork. Powerful Bafang 750-1000 watt front hub motor, Shimano 7 speed mechanical system, high capacity battery, and mechanical disc brakes with motor inhibitors. Weight is higher up than recumbent, makes you want to go a little slower, could be hard to maneuver in a crowded garage, grips are non-locking which you may want to upgrade to locking for intense rides, and no integrated lights.

This guy has quite the radio voice. You’re really upping your game.
I want so many of these ebikes! I've been selling all my 5 non ebikes making room for ebikes.
I love that this trike has suspension!
I am a relatively active 70 year old living in a green city, consequently, I am contemplating giving up my car. Ran a marathon at 55, continued running until a knee injury at 62, and walk almost daily from 1 - 5 miles. In moving quickly, instinctively, I have excellent balance. But when moving slowly I find I am hesitant, somewhat fearful of falling, and recently had a fall when not paying attention and placing my foot into a deep hole in the pavement. Sorry, for the lengthy post. I am looking at trikes because I think a bicycle might be too challenging balance wise. I would use the trike on city roads but most of your videos don't show road use. Have read laws about use on roads, but would appreciate guidance on whether it is practical to anticipate using a trike around the city where bike lanes are intermittent.
how this trike handle in the snow?
I’m digging those 4 and a half finger brake levers. Now if I can only get half my thumb on the levers that would be ideal!🤔
Cool helmets. 👍
Have a situation front brake guard rubbing on plate how would I go about making the adjustment to stop it from rubbing don’t want to touch anything that will affect the motor thank You for your assistance
I like the big box on the back to carry stuff.
Me too... and I love the suspension fork! Most trikes don't have that :)
What is the % of upright trikes that they sell vs. recumbent ones?
Does this charge while you peddle?
I just bought this a few months ago and I LOVE IT!!!!!
Love how modern this looks. How easy will it be to go from electric to manual when the battery runs out or is about to run out. Say im doing a 30+ mile ride or smthg.
Very good
Does it have a 12 magnet sensor for pedal assist?
Where do you get the Devo 2.0 helmet?
Nice video
I would love to have to have this trike be foldable like the liberty trike. I like the liberty trike but would love to have a little more sturdiness for all types of weather.
Nice
How long distance autonomy has it at 10 miles per hour?
Thank you
great price easy to set up.
Awesome
All black color would really look cool.
I've tried other electric bikes before, but the M340 is by far the best. Its combination of speed, range, and comfort can't be beat.
Would like to have one,how far can it go? I saw Addmotor Grandtan goes up to 85+ miles on a single charge.
DUDE ! You scuffed the right wheel on the curb! OUCH!
I find these bikes cater to short people, I have a 33 inch inseam on my legs, that's without a shoe, is this seat going to be able to be raised enough to accommodate this? I dont need the full 33 inches but I do need to not have my knees in the air as I am trying to pedal.
When will someone make one with the drive going thru the gears & rear wheels? We need serious hill climb ability.
That is exactly what I am looking for but have not found.
@@uofudavid I found this mid drive, but NO GEARS. electricbikereview.com/electric-bike-technologies/electric-fat-trike-mid-drive/ Why would anyone build such a nice tricycle & leave out one of the most important parts. We need serious hill climb ability.
What is the distance it travels in one charge and how much does it cost.
Can this be ridden on the beach? How about a backrest? US ?
Can a v1 be converted into a trike for my balance.
TY
Can you review the Zugo bike? Curious about the 90 miles distance claim
Cool, thanks for the recommendation! I'll pass this along to the team, we're working on covering more bikes based solely on request so it's great to hear from you on this :)
@@ElectricBikeReview see if you can get in to review the fuel ebike by eric buell. It looks really cool. But so did moar and wave. Lol.
Thank you ElectricBikeReview.com !
Love bike hate seat. Have fibromyalgia and that would torture my butt. Do u have seat replacement options, like a horse sattle shape seat.
Nice, wondering how to make it carry a 300 pounds person, as tires says Max Load is 90Kg, thanks
Watching your video due to viewing Rusty channel.
great review.....a few questions.....what is the weight of the entire bike and how is it transported as it looks too tall to insert in the back of any SUV? Also...most folks looking for an e assist trike will be better served on a recumbent. I cant imagine sitting on a seat like that for 30-40 miles.
As a rider of both recumbent trike and bike, I'd say they have advantages and disadvantages. I've owned and ridden a traditional upright trike, and it is fun once you become accustomed to it. They have certain advantages over a recumbent. I also enjoy riding my 'normal' bikes too. As for saddles, they're like shoes... everybody is different, so finding the right fit is often difficult. The wrong ones are painful, but the right ones are comfortable all day long.
surprisingly quiet
This makes you wonder at the prices on some other bikes. This is 50% more bike than other bikes and its not really as expensive as some of the higher priced hub bikes.
Yeah, Jason has been doing a great job in this market, growing his business over the years and really focusing on Trikes. I like what he came up with here. The battery position, the suspension, the fat tires, and the cool box on the back. Good stuff :)
what is the weight limit
do you ship to australia ?
I am in Orange County CA where can I buy a Electric Bike Technologies Electric Fat Tire in the (olive green)
I didn’t here top speed or estimated range? I know all that varies but what is an average? Also, can I get an extra or replace the battery? And how many cycles can the battery be charged before we see depreciation in current output.
Whoops. *hear
I wonder if the price of these bikes will go up or down in the near future?
It is torque or cadence?
Whether these are available in Bangladesh
how to hack the motor to go faster? with my weight i only go 17mph
is it truly an honest review if you have the manufacturer present for the entire review? where can i find an independant review where i dont have to question the results?
Nice looking e-trike. The de-railer between the back tires would be easily damaged riding over rough roads. one large rock and you walk home.
no walking because its powered by the front.
but you are right about the de-railer in the middle.
These bikes are not made for any serious off-road, just nice hiking trails, because they have a high center of gravity and tip easily.
I own one.
this should be rear drive or mid motor drive front wheel spins when you take off , but nice looking bike
There is a mid-drive motor trike at www.ElectricTrike.com
The derailleur is not at the front of the bike on the handlebars. You were pointing at the shifters. The derailleur is the mechanism at the rear which physically moves the chain from gear to gear.
I'm fairly certain he's aware of that. It's very common to use a generic term for the gearing system. A bicyle wheel has a rim, spokes, a hub, bearings and other components... but you just point at it and call it a wheel.
Nothing wrong with precision in speech. It’s not a personal attack, no disrespect is intended, and the man requires no defense. A lack of respect for simple correction, or more accurately the mischaracterization of correction as “mean-spirited” or “splitting hairs” is responsible for much of the decay in society at large. You and I are capable of making the mental adjustment and move on. Others with less experience will hear the errant phrasing and adopt it, not knowing any better. But again, my correction is not intended as a petty attack, and the presenter is not a child, so i’m certain his feelings aren’t hurt, so no defense is needed.
Great bike for the $$
Why keep a review posted for a bike that is no longer available?
Dimensions? Where to order?
Pretty sweet price point for such a "tactical" looking vehicle.
I want to use it to pick up chicks
"tactical"..... where's the grenade launcher?
Michael Pallini nothing picks up girls more than a e trike, it literally screams I am too lazy to pedal and don't know how to balance a bike.
@@LedplimmyXD i owned a vintage Desoto trike but sold it in 2015 to move out of the USA for awhile. use to ride motorcycles until 2006 when my back could no longer stand it, even with an 06 harley ultra classic.
living in south dakota i see so many folks trailering a 10 year old bike with less than 7,000 miles on it, on their way to Sturgis.
im an old Man in my 60's who got my motorcycle license at 14 years old. was hit head on on my chopper (a Honda)at 55 miles an hour in 1978, car ran over my back. switched to touring style bikes in 1985 . many years i only had a bike for transportation.
so i really laugh my ass off at the old guys that get tattoos and grow beards and PLAY BIKER especially the ones who buy a TRIKE!! its like the old guy that decides he needs a dodge charger or ss camero but never drove a fast car before or ever tried hot roding. untill they retire. i was poor so i bought basket cases and built my own cars, trucks and motorcycles. in 76 i built a 68 chevelle ss396 with square port heads, etc... 375 HP with 4 speed and 4.10: 1 posi. in 78 i built a 68 roadrunner with 383 78 cc heads , 747 torqueflight etc....
spent 10 calendars in PRISON watching guys with harley tattoos hide under their beds as i and my brothers fought race wars being outnumbered 10 to 1.
so i have zero respect for wannabes
and im going to buy a fat tire 3 wheel bicycle and electrify it myself, as i have a 4 years old son to keep up with now days!
How much this bike cost. I m in toronto. Just want to save ttc money. I appreciate if u guide me how i can order this bike and how much it codt.
Now it costs $3,500 + $250 shipping in U.S.
But sold out so not even available
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Wow I guess
Can't wait to hit some big jumps with this!
Does this need a driving license?. Since it has above 500w motor o doubt
Not in most of the USA.
do you sell in israel ?
They should have a solar panel on top of that bag in the rear.
Juice ain't worth the squeeze.
Im 6'3 … Would this accommodate my size ?...
No, have one--run away.
Yes and I have a 33 inch inseam on my legs will my knees be up in the air trying to pedal? It seems to me that these bikes cater to short people.
adjust your weight ???????????
Needs a 50% bigger battery
4 inches wide. 4 inches is the width of the tires, not the diameter of the wheels. 20 and 24 inches are the diameters of the rear and front wheels, respectively.
Again with the excessive pedantry? I'm certain that we all know what he is referring to, even those who work with metric measurements are unlikely to get confused between 4 inches and 24 inches.
How much if luckily i order.. im filipino.. thank you so much if you respond on my comment..🙁🙄👏👌😉😢🙁👌👍👍
$3,500 plus shipping.
But SOLD OUT now so only available later with a higher price tag
I love my TRIKETAN Etrike. The trike rides smoothly. I love it!
A+++++++
Found one
You guys never talk about it’s weight limits
I can't believe they built a Ebike with no back or front lights. 🤔
Me either, my Engwe has both plus brake lights. No hydraulic brakes either . Loads of these on Alibaba , basic chinese design, some better featured than others. Makes me smile to see people claim they designed this and that when it all came from china :)
We purchased this Vivi 27.5” electric bike and a Tentaquil 26” electric bike for our 13 and 14 year olds. czcams.com/users/postUgkxUiL0GnyDjP32RJdd660sP8mZk4CRLTCJ The Vivi was much easier to put together. With the Vivi, there was a video link to assist with assembly which made the process easier to follow (we did put the handlebars on upside down, but it was a quick and easy fix). With the Tentaquil, the assembly was not as simple to follow, but after we messaged the company for an assembly video, it was easier and they did respond quickly. The other major differences were that the Vivi has a grip throttle on the right handle (like a motorcycle) and the Tentaquil has a push throttle that you use your thumb to activate. The monitors were also different, so if you’re looking for something specific in terms of changing the bikes functions, pay attention to what the monitor offers. We were really impressed with the overall quality and functionality of both bikes, but if you’re looking for more power and an easier assembly, definitely go with the Vivi!
did he ever get to cost? because I want one. :)
$2000 + $250 flat delivery Contiguous US only.
@@electricbiketech is there an upgraded motor model? I'm a big guy and live in a hilly area where I end up walking some inclines.

I would add a headlight and USB Ports
I didn’t find a back rest unfortunately
Bummer, I'm sorry you still haven't found one. Perhaps Amazon, or maybe you could custom fabricate one?!
where can I go to see on, NOT CALIFONIA?
Did they even show it go off road? pft
I'm here from Rusty78609
For one you didn't mention about the trunk in the rear and the Trike is missing a chain guard other than that I like it.
Where can this trike be purchased?

The front fender i useless, to begin with. Its going to pour rainwater on your shoes. Its faaaar to short.
Devo Helmut!!

No chain guard watch out those pant legs
You do know about bicycle trouser clips? They've been around nearly as long as the bicycle itself. It's hardly a chore to pop one on.
this guy guesses too much... "24 in. stand over measurement" ? other things.... facts!
what exactly does that mean? I want to know the distance from the top of the lowest pedal to the top of the seat at it's highest point. Can the seat be adjusted to go higher?
10:05 Just a tip, we don't want or need to see you as you talk about the bike. We want to see the bike in action. It's kinda frustrating when you focus on your face.
and that funky helmet
The tires cost more. and the spokes need to be thicker.
You dont know what you are talking about.
12 ga in the front is fine.
The wide tires and have 50% more area over which to disperse shock and mass, combined with the shorter spokes means that each spoke is under significantly less stress than a two wheeled 26in bike with similar tires.
These spokes are just fine.
Good point about the smaller wheel size in relation to the spoke strength, metamorphicorder. I've seen some ebike companies go extreme with 12 gauge spokes all around, but then you lose comfort and they can still get loose because of vibration. I can't speak for this ebike specifically, but there's more to durability than just spoke thickness, and wheel size definitely plays a part :)
@@metamorphicorder look at worksman bikes. I am very hard on bikes and in time i would have to replace that wheel and I would replace it with one of Worksman's.
@@sherrysmith337 sherry im 300 lbs plus and im HARD on bikes. Im telling you that unless you are riding up and down stairs on underinflated tubes, these wheels are gonna be just fine.
Look, like i was saying these are gonna have 50% more area over which to disperse load and impact than a similarly equipped 2 wheel bike, which already has about 200 to 400% more area over which do so. This doesnt even factor in the larger cushion of air volume. Wider rims also disperse the shock before it gets to ths spokes.
Weight is balanced between two wheels rather than over one? More reduction.
24 rather than 26 in spokes?
Nearly and 8% reduction in spoke length. Further reduction in the torque applied to the spokes during accell and braking.
Having the motor in front in a trike with most of the weight centered between the two rear wheels? Less stress on the front spokes. The front spokes are even shorter because of the motor too so theres even more reduction.
If this was a normal width 26 in rim bike or trike even, i would agree that the 13 ga spokes were a compromise, but here on an already heavy bike of a design thats not particularly prone to spoke breakage, i have to say that 13 is really the right choice.
I woild rather see an extrarear brake included , or increase the rotor size before specing more into spokes.
All in all this is a good deal if you need a trike.
Howeverif you are doing commercial activities on a bicycle platform, i get why 13ga might seem small. This really isnt for that.
Im not sure what you meant by the tires costing too much. Fat tires cost more than narrow ones. Thats how it works. More rubber costs more than less rubber.
@@metamorphicorder I am going to be buying a worksman trike. They have been around for over 100 years and can hold over 500 lbs.
Have one and it's gamey to ride. Too narrow and too short of wheel base. Tips with a puff of wind. Even riding on streets is horrible. Also have tried to obtain the settings instructions for the controller display , many email requests hours searching. Not one bit of useful information--10 months later. The front wheel drive is so close to useless it hurts. Breaks traction constantly. Off road is a horror ,tipping over at the least off camber situation.
all this is at the end of the day is a cheap copy of a "Jorvik jmt3". no differential and one less brake disc. typical inferior US back engineering
they've even done away with the hydraulic brakes 😂
DOES THE REALLY FUCKIN GAY HELMET COME WITH THE BIKE
Don’t believe the hype, including the video, on this P O S . It may work for a skinny vegan, on blacktop, downhill, but in the real world it sucks ! You can watch the battery lose charge, and on anything other than blacktop...get off and push. You know what they say about advise, but don’t buy one before you try one out for yourself.
I could build this for around £400 😂😂😂 another rip off electric price!! Stupid!!
Do it.
You couldn't build it and sell it profitably for that price.
You probably couldnt build this if you had to buy absolutely everything yourself for the price you quoted.
I dont think you understand what involved here. The batteries for these cost at least half your quoted cost.
So now you have half that cost to get a trike and a motor and a controller and all that. Good luck. You cant do it. Please post an itemized build parts list with cost for each item.
You cant start with anything you already own. You have to buy everything.
A and you cant cheat by doing the labor for free. You have to pay yourself.
So please show us all how to build one of these for the cost you quoted. Please. Im waiting.
And then you add cost of labour, rent, tax, development of future products, other operating costs, and profit. Go back to school and learn basic economics again junior.
I wouldn't ride yours 😂 🤣 This trike is an awesome beast!!! I own it and I LOVE it!!!
Smooth trails and very rough terrain!! If I could marry it I would. 😂
@electricbiketechnologies @electricbikereview No headlight or tail light ??😳
