Title: Electric trike? Post by: Manky Monkey on December 13, 2019, 05:29:03 PM This Ebay ad popped up on my phone today.
An electric conversion for live axles, "suitable for electric rickshaws, tricycles etc", but with larger motors available on request. I'd be interested to see a custom electric trike. If it ever comes to it, I'd quite happily swap MY truck's V8 for an electric motor if it meant the difference between carrying on using it or consigning it to a museum.

Title: Re: Electric trike? Post by: stinkey on December 15, 2019, 07:37:07 PM Few things popped in my head upon seeing this?
1. It's a CON? 2. Id definitely use it? 3. Springs to mind something someone on this forum said about my reliant engine not being man enough to turn my jag rear axle? 😂😂 Title: Re: Electric trike?

Once again the law in this country is somewhat confusing. From what I've read.... For an electric bike/trike/quad to not need type approval/road registered (msva) it needs to be less than 250watt / less than 15.5 mph pedal assist.If you don't pedal, the motor must cut out. If you go over 15.5mph, the motor must cut out If it's not pedal assist (twist and go) it must be limited to just 3.7mph ! Be an interesting exercise to get an electric vehicle through msva.
