Is the Maxfoot Electric Trike worth it?

If you want three-wheel stability and cargo capacity and have room to store a 90 lb trike, it fills a niche two-wheel e-bikes do not. If you need to lift it onto a car rack or carry it upstairs, its weight works against it.

How fast does it go and how far on a charge?

Maxfoot rates it at 20+ mph and 85+ miles of range at PAS 1. Expect real-world range to fall well below that at higher assist levels or with a loaded rear rack.

Can it handle hills and gravel?

The 7-speed geared drivetrain and pedal assist help on hills, and the fat tires plus 50mm front suspension suit gravel and grass. The single front wheel carries less grip than two, so loose climbs need care.

How much weight can it carry?

The rear rack is rated for 100 lbs. The trike itself weighs about 90 lbs, so check total capacity before loading it heavily.

What size rider does the low step frame fit?

The low step-through frame is aimed at adults and seniors who want easy mounting. Check Maxfoot's rider height range for your inseam before ordering, since trike fit is less adjustable than on a bike.

Our take on the Maxfoot Electric Trike 3 Wheel Fat Tire Low Step

The Maxfoot Electric Trike is a three-wheel e-trike with a low step-through frame, a 24-inch front wheel, fat tires and a 7-speed geared drivetrain with a rear differential. It claims 85+ miles of range at the lowest pedal-assist level and a top speed of 20+ mph, with 50mm of oil-spring front suspension and a rear rack rated for 100 lbs. It weighs about 90 lbs, so it is best treated as a stable errand and leisure machine rather than something you lift onto a rack. It suits riders who want three-wheel stability, including seniors and adults who find two wheels intimidating.
