Is the Maxfoot Fat Tire Low Step Electric Trike worth it?

At $1,899 at Maxfoot as of November 3, it is a reasonable price for a fat-tire e-trike with a rear differential and 85+ mile PAS 1 range. It makes sense if stability and cargo matter more than speed or light weight.

How does it compare with a two-wheel e-bike?

It will not tip at a stop and carries more cargo on the rear rack, but it is about 90 lbs and 34 inches wide. A two-wheel e-bike is lighter and faster but demands balance.

What is the battery range?

Maxfoot rates 85+ miles on PAS 1. Expect far less at higher assist levels or with a loaded rack, and charge time depends on the battery spec.

Can it fit through a standard door?

It is 34 inches wide, so it fits most standard doorways but not narrow gates or paths. Measure your storage space before buying.

What comes in the box?

The trike ships mostly assembled with the battery, charger and tools. Plan on an hour or two to finish assembly and check the brakes and derailleur.

E-trikes usually drop during spring sales and end-of-season clearance. The current $1,899 at Maxfoot as of November 3 is already near its recent low.
