I was considering purchasing this tricycle however I am not going to put it together myself. There is just no way I can do this. My heart just sank at this and the comments. Wow. Why in the world would anyone purchase something at this price and then assimble it. Wow. How disappointing.
my derailleur will not do all 7 gears and looks bent., how do i get it replaced. and by the way, your video shows the chain coming off the gears onto the hub.
We took our time and it took us about four hours to put it together. It is a good idea to go to harbor freight and pay to $16 and get a chain tool rather than using a pair of flyers too slowly evenly and carefully press the chain ends together. Also whoever built one where did you position you're a gearshift klove for the derailleur?
The spacing across the ends of the front fork which engage the wheel axle is what I was asking about. This dimension is needed when considering front wheel ebike conversion kits. As it is, this measures 100mm.
@@viribusworkshop I went with a 500w Bafang kit. I mounted the 20A battery pack to 3/4" plywood u-clamped on the down tubes between the seat post and basket. Had to do without my front fender because the torque arm interferes with mounting and the front basket brace holes had to be reamed out a tad with my Dremel to account for a mm size difference in axles. All good though. Great work horse of a trike!
This video sucks! Thank god im kind of handy and figured it out! Company definitely needs a better video if this is what they recommend! The loose chaim problem try sliding where you attached back wheel back some to tighten chain! Good luck
I have been two weeks and several hours trying to get this adult tricycle together and I get virtually no help from the company. They offered me $30 for my inconvenience, and then today they offered me $25. I have watched several posted videos but the hands of the assemblers keep hiding crucial moments. Right now I cannot figure out how the derailleur assembles. Currently, the cable is getting chewed up. A bicycle shop offered to ameliorate my problem for $200. The company has sent me three CZcams addresses and none work--they are no longer available. The paper directions are a joke and the videos are the same. My patients have run thin and I am ready to put them in the trash, but I am driven to get in touch with my federal representatives, the Commerce dept, and any other agency that will force an honest attempt to resolve my issue. I just want to get it put together. Wish I never bought this terriable piece of junk.
Assembling a bike derailleur can be a bit complicated, so it's important to follow these steps carefully: Start by installing the rear derailleur hanger on the frame of the bike. This is a small metal piece that bolts onto the derailleur dropout on the frame. Make sure it is securely tightened. Attach the derailleur to the hanger by sliding the derailleur onto the hanger and tightening the bolt or screw. Make sure it is tight enough to hold the derailleur in place, but not too tight. Next, install the derailleur cable. Start by threading the cable through the cable housing, which is a protective tube that runs from the shifter to the derailleur. Be sure to cut the cable to the appropriate length if necessary. Thread the cable through the cable anchor bolt on the derailleur, making sure it is properly aligned and securely fastened with a bolt or screw. Adjust the barrel adjuster, which is a small cylinder located where the derailleur cable enters the derailleur. This is used to fine-tune the shifting. Turn it clockwise to tighten or counter-clockwise to loosen. Lastly, test the shifting by manually moving the derailleur up and down through the gear range. Make any necessary adjustments to the barrel adjuster or cable tension until the shifting is smooth and accurate. Remember, if you're unsure about any of these steps, it's best to consult a professional bike mechanic for assistance.
Oh oh. I just got started. Print manual is worthless. Now watching videos I found online. I'll give the company credit,however, they did do a solid job packing the bike.
Got my box of bike bits today and spent 10 miserable hours trying to put it together. My back is in incredible pain now. I've given up and I'm taking it to a bike repair shop, which I hasten to add is over an hours drive away...Frustrated and annoyed... Your videos are way too fast, so much so I had to change the speed to watch and still no luck...So over it
Worst instructional video I have ever seen!!! This bike is the worst to put together. It would not be so bad if the instructions were clear and not in speed mode. If you really want to seel more bikes maybe make a better how to video. Amazon is going to get a 1 start review on this one. Also the frame where it slides the front and back was bent on one side. Ridiculous!
What happens when half your parts are bent or misaligned? Hard to get the bike assembled with bad parts.
not good video, it is too fast and not helpful

Mine will not work at all and all the company can say is I am sorry. We will have a tech get in touch with you.
are the derailleur gears supposed to be bent or totally flat
Had put the bike upside down to adjust the chain..when i spin the peddles only one rear wheel moves when peddling pls let me know what i did wrong

at 7:12 when bringing the chain to cog one, it actuallys slips in the video. No wonder I can't get mine to work
yep, slowed the speed down and that chain definitely slips past smallest cog
@@sharonk.3107 I can barely move mine and it will not shift.
Our purchase assembly went well. However, the frame is bent. Tricycle turns to the right.
Dear customer, I'm very sorry to hear that. You could contact our customer survice to get technical help.
@@viribusworkshop we need to get the frame straightening done.
@@viribusworkshop I bet you are sorry.
Great video, if you know what you are doing from the start
my chain seems too long it sags
You need to tighten the derailure cable where cable attaches to the hold nut assembly.
My chain seems too long too
Try unloosing the bolts that connect the 2 frames with chain on and try sliding back wheels back some to tighten chain!
@@Sean-il9if i didn't have the chain fed through the derailleur correctly
How do you know what side to put the rear tire is there a difference
yes, there is differences.
What is the dimension (in mm) across the front dropout?
Front Basket Dimension 12" x 8.7'' x 9''（30.5 x 22.1 x 22.9mm）
The spacing across the ends of the front fork which engage the wheel axle is what I was asking about.
This dimension is needed when considering front wheel ebike conversion kits. As it is, this measures 100mm.

I feel your backache now. 😑
Oh oh. I just got started. Print manual is worthless. Now watching videos I found online. I'll give the company credit,however, they did do a solid job packing the bike.
They are installing chains on the main frame incorrectly in the factory making you take the chain apart to untangle. Terrible quality
Does it come with tool's
yes, of course
Ours did not include tools
@@bassinbillRC5300 I'm very sorry to hear that. You can contact our customer service.
Never mind. We built it with our own tools
@@viribusworkshopplus the frame is bent. Tricycke pulls to the right.
Why in gods name would they wrap the chain around the frame. What is going on in that mindless factory
Most useless video ever
Yeah. Video too fast and that chain doesn’t assemble that easy
Please fire whoever directed this video. Made me even more confused than the terrible instructions
Instructions and video are crap.
