A lot of seniors prefer trikes because the three wheels provide more balance and stability. Now more trikes are coming with an electric motor, providing both a pedal assist and throttle option when riding. The electric assist can make pedaling much easier on both flat ground or up hills. But using an e trike can take some getting used to. The electric assist usually has five levels, with one being the least amount of assistance and five being the most. Electric tricycles are safe for senior riders but there are important safety tips to remember when riding a three wheel e bike. First, 3 wheel bikes steer and balance differently from a two wheel bicycle. Many people get onto a tricycle for the first time and expect the way they lean and steer should be similar to riding a two wheel bike and it's not. Make sure you've taken plenty of test rides to get used to how a three wheel bicycle balances before turning on the electric motor. Second, start by using the lowest levels of pedal assist. Even in the lowest levels of pedal assist when the motor kicks in on an ebike it can be startling. Starting out with the lowest level of pedal assist will allow you to get used to riding with the electric turned on. As you get comfortable you can increase the assistance if you see fit. How safe an electric trike is dependent on how the rider operates it. They are easy to operate but take it slow, get comfortable until you have the confidence to ride safely.
