Overview
A three-wheel electric tricycle from Cybervelo with a 750W rear hub motor (1000W peak), a differential system for independent rear-wheel speeds, and a 48V 20.8Ah TUV-certified battery rated for up to 80 miles.
Listed under an Electric Bicycles category, but the title and specs describe a fat tire folding trike, a three-wheeled step-thru vehicle rather than a two-wheel bicycle, which is worth flagging since the category label is misleading. The differential system that lets the rear wheels turn at different speeds is a genuine stability feature for cornering that most budget trikes skip.
- 750W motor, 1000W peak
- 48V 20.8Ah TUV-certified battery, up to 80 miles
- Differential rear-wheel system
- 330 lb frame capacity
Who it's for
Riders who want the stability of three wheels, such as those less confident balancing a two-wheel ebike, or anyone needing a large front basket for groceries or errands. Not for riders wanting the lighter weight and narrower footprint of a standard two-wheel ebike.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Differential drive lets rear wheels turn independently through corners
- TUV-certified 48V 20.8Ah battery rated up to 80 miles
- Disc parking brake holds securely on hills
- 330 lb frame capacity
- Heavier and wider than a standard two-wheel ebike
- Miscategorized as an Electric Bicycle despite being a trike
Performance notes
The rear central hub motor pairs with a differential system so the two rear wheels can spin at different speeds through turns, improving stability and control compared to a fixed-axle trike. The disc parking brake system is built to hold the trike securely on inclines, useful given its added weight over a two-wheel bike.
