E Bike Rickshaw Sizing for Riders 4'11" to 6'5" - Tricycle with Passenger Seat Fitting Video

Hey everyone. I'm Dustin, CEO of Sixthreezero, and today we're going to take you through a sizing and fitting video for our new electric bike rickshaw, 750 watts with the passenger seat. We've got riders from four-foot-eleven to six-foot-two. We're going to size them and fit them and show you how they can fit perfectly on our rickshaw. So stick around.

All right, so before we get into our sizing, I want to introduce you to our electric bike rickshaw, the 750-watt passenger tricycle, and just walk you through a few of the details before we get into it. Now, number one, you have an adjustable seat clamp here, which is going to allow you to raise and lower the seat, which is why we're going to be able to accommodate various heights. You can also raise and lower the handlebars and tilt the handlebars. So again, you can adjust to the rider's height, weight, and body type, and you're going to see that upcoming here with all of our riders and the different body types, how we can easily adjust to them to make sure they have a comfortable riding position. Also, when you're carrying passengers in the back, you want to make sure you have complete control of the tricycle, so you'll see how we can get the handlebar dialed in, get it set up perfectly for their bodies so they have complete control and it's safe to ride.

Now obviously is our electric rickshaw, so you've got the seat at the back here. You've got a footrest for your riders. The 750-watt front hub motors are going to take you up to 16 to 20 miles an hour. This thing can really, really go fast. In addition, we've got the huge battery right here, the 21 amp hour, 48 volts. You're going to get up to 50 miles on this electric rickshaw, even with passengers. So it is a lot of fun. You've got the throttle here as well as the pedal assist modes. And if you want to see more details or info, you can check out our YouTube and you can find tons of other videos on the electric bike rickshaw. All right, so without further ado, let's get into our riders and check out the fittings.

Okay, we're here with our four-foot-eleven rider. What was your name?

Brynn: Brynn.

Dustin: Brynn. And Brynn. What's your arm length and your inseam?

Brynn: My arm length is 17 inches and my inseam is 29 inches.

Dustin: Perfect. And how much do you weigh?

Brynn: I weigh 105 pounds.

Dustin: Okay, awesome. Can you go ahead and step on, let me get the pedal in the right position for you here. Okay, go ahead. Perfect. Okay, so that's as low as the seat's going to go for Brynn. Now her leg is a little bit fully extended, but she could still ride. And don't forget, you have a throttle also, so you don't even have to pedal if you don't want to. But how does it feel for you? It's not bad, right? The handlebars look maybe a little high. We can lower those down for her. Let's go ahead and loosen our adjustment bolt right here. Oh, better?

Brynn: Yeah.

Dustin: Feels good?

Brynn: Yeah.

Dustin: Okay. Now obviously with a tricycle, she doesn't have to balance, so as long as she can get on and off easily, I think we've got a good fit. How does it feel for you?

Brynn: It feels comfy.

Dustin: Yeah?

Brynn: Yeah.

Dustin: Now how about stepping on off for us, get off the bike so we can just see. There we go. Perfect. So she did it at four-foot-eleven. Would you feel okay riding that?

Brynn: Yeah, I would totally feel okay riding.

Dustin: There we have it. So we've got a good fit for our four-foot-eleven rider. Let's move up to five-foot. Okay. Now we're here with our five-foot rider. What was your name?

Sandy: Sandy.

Dustin: Sandy. And Sandy, what's your arm length and your inseam?

Sandy: My arm length is 19 inches and my inseam is 28.5.

Dustin: Perfect. And how much do you weigh?

Sandy: I'm 120.

Dustin: Perfect. So if you want to go ahead and step on, hold the brakes when you get on so it doesn't roll away. And just go ahead and step up. Perfect. And let's go ahead and get the pedal. Go ahead and pedal backward right here. And let's see your foot in the lowest position. There we go. So her legs are ideally a little bit straighter than I would like, but of course, you have the pedal assist and the throttle so the bike can do the work. So even if you don't have maximum efficiency on an E-bike, it should be okay, but it actually looks like an okay fit. Do you feel comfortable?

Sandy: Yeah, my legs stretched out, a little bit more than I want, but I feel pretty secure with it being three wheels.

Dustin: How about the handlebars?

Sandy: Oh, that feels fine.

Dustin: Yeah?

Sandy: Mm-hmm.

Dustin: Okay. Well, we've got her in an ergonomic position, looking relaxed. The other thing I'll note is we do have a suspension seat post on here and that raises the seat about two and a half inches. So in Sandy's case or our four-foot eleven riders' case, if they wanted to bring the seat down a little bit, you can easily swap the seat post out and you can also contact Sixthreezero and we could send you a different seat post, which is going to lower the seat two and a half inches. That would give Sandy that little bit more knee bend that I think she would be looking for. So, either way, we can make it fit for her at five-foot, and let's go ahead and move up to our five-foot-one rider. Okay. Now we're here with our five-foot-one rider. What was your name?

Teresa: Teresa.

Dustin: Teresa. And Teresa, what's your arm length and your inseam?

Teresa: My arm length is 22. My inseam is 30.

Dustin: Perfect. And how much do you weigh?

Teresa: Approximately, 130.

Dustin: 130, perfect. If you can go ahead and step on, hold the brake when you get on and step onto the pedal. There you go. And step up. Perfect. Okay, looks good. She's got a nice slight bend in her knee on the downstroke. How does that feel? Feel comfortable?

Teresa: Feels good.

Dustin: Cool. Any adjustments you think you'd want me to make?

Teresa: No, I don't think so.

Dustin: Okay. Well, there we have it. So at five-foot-one, we've got a good fit. Her back's upright, her arms are relaxed. Looks like she's ready to take on the road. So let's move up to our five-foot-two rider. All right. Now we're with our five-foot-two rider. What was your name?

Jerry: Jerry.

Dustin: Jerry. And Jerry, what's your arm length and your inseam?

Jerry: My arm length is 19, my inseam is 33.

Dustin: Perfect. And how much do you weigh?

Jerry: 120.

Dustin: 120, okay. Can you go ahead and step on hold the brake when you get on there? And let me see. Let me pedal backward so we can get your foot in the lowest position. There we go, right there. Perfect. That looks pretty good. You've got a nice bend in the leg on the downstroke. Actually, the back looks upright. I don't think we need to make adjustments, but what do you think?

Jerry: No, it feels good.

Dustin: Perfect. We've got her back nice and upright. Arms are relaxed and in an ergonomic position. I think we've got a great fit at five-foot-two. Let's move up to our five-foot-three rider. All right, we're with our five-foot-three rider. What was your name?

Rohini: My arm length is 15 inches and my inseam is 28 and a half inches.

Dustin: Perfect. And how much do you weigh?

Rohini: 135 pounds.

Dustin: Great. If you can go ahead and step on, hold the brake when you get on. Right here, hold that just so it doesn't roll away. And go ahead and step onto the pedal and then you can step up. There you go. So that looks pretty good also. How does that feel for you? We could raise the hammer bars or your leg maybe could be raised a little bit do you think? Pedal all the way backward, so your foot's in the downward position. Stop right there. Maybe a little bit. How does it feel for you?

Rohini: Good.

Dustin: Any adjustments or do you think you'd be good with it?

Rohini: We could probably bring this down a little bit or inwards.

Dustin: The handlebars?

Rohini: Yeah.

Dustin: Let's see. Okay, so you've got two bolts to adjust here. Let's see, I'm going to go right here. There we go.

Rohini: Right here.

Dustin: All right.

Rohini: Just a tad bit.

Dustin: And again, you've got the four custom adjustment points, so it's really easy. Does that feel better? Perfect. So you've got a great fit for our five-foot-three rider. Let's move up to five-foot-four. Okay, we're with our five-foot-four rider. What was your name?

Deidre: Deidre.

Dustin: Deidre. And Deidre, what's your arm length and your inseam?

Dustin: Awesome. Can you go ahead and step on? And then step onto the pedal? Yeah, [inaudible 00:08:30] get you. There you go. And let's see now. Go ahead and pedal backward with your foot like this and stop right there. So that actually looks pretty good in terms of the height. How does everything else feel?

Deidre: Feels good.

Dustin: Any adjustments you would want to make or feel okay?

Deidre: Can the bar come closer?

Dustin: Maybe a little, let's see. You just loosen these two bolts right here so they can bend in that way.

Deidre: I see. Yeah, this is good.

Dustin: Better?

Deidre: Yeah. It's good.

Dustin: Okay. There you go. How's that feel? Not bad?

Deidre: Good.

Dustin: So we've got her in a good upright position. Her arms are a little bit outstretched, but not too bad. She still doesn't have to lean forward, which is what we want. And she got on easily. So we've got a fit for our five-foot-four rider. Let's move up to five-foot-five. Okay. We're with our five-foot-five rider now. What was your name?

Brianna: Yeah, this was perfect.

Dustin: Handlebars. Do you want those adjusted? I think maybe tilting them up a little bit.

Brianna: Yeah, a little higher.

Thomas: Pedal backward, okay.

Dustin: How about the handlebar in the position?

Brian: Yeah, they're feeling really nice actually.

Dustin: Okay. No adjustment?

Brian: I don't think so.

Dustin: There you have it. So the other thing I mentioned is it's all about the rider's body and what they like, which is why we have easily adjustable points. You can tilt, you can raise, you can lower. Doesn't mean that a rider who's shorter or taller will want them raised or lower, but we can't adjust it if need be. So we've got a great fit for our five eleven riders. Let's move up to six-foot. All right. We're with our six-foot rider. What was your name?

Brendan: Brendan.

Dustin: Brendan. And Brendan. What's your arm length and your inseam?

Brendan: My arm length is 26 and my inseam is 32.

Brendan: Yeah. Pretty comfortable.

Dustin: Yeah, you got a good bend. It's relaxed, your shoulders are upright. You're in a nice ergonomic position.

Brendan: Yeah, I feel really good.

Dustin: So we didn't need to make many adjustments to our six-foot rider. Brendan's a fit. Let's move up to our final rider at six-foot-two. Alrighty. Okay. We're with our tallest rider now, our six-two rider. And what's your name?

Leif: Lathan.

Dustin: Lathan. What's your arm length and your inseam?

Leif: Arm length is 25 inches inseam is 33 inches.

Leif: It feels good.

Dustin: And how about handlebars, a little low?

Leif: That could be a little bit higher.

Dustin: Yep. Let's go ahead and start here with the tilt.

Leif: That's good.

Dustin: Good there. And bring them up a little higher maybe?

Leif: Yeah.

Dustin: Okay. Go ahead and adjust this. Sorry. How's that? Better?

Leif: Yeah, that feels good.

Dustin: Okay, perfect. All right, there we go. Got his back upright, arms relaxed. Does that feel comfortable?

Leif: Feels comfortable.

Dustin: Cool. So we got a fit for our six-foot-two rider. That's a wrap on all the heights. Stick around as we wrap it up. Okay. So we've just fit and sized riders. Four eleven to six-foot-two on our electric bike rickshaw. And you can see everybody's a fit. They all can ride and fit perfectly. And actually, I think we could have riders even shorter than four eleven and taller than six-foot-two. Especially on the taller end. We could get the seat higher, the handlebars higher, and on the shorter end, we could probably accommodate four-foot-ten, four-foot-nine if need be. But you can see our rickshaw accommodates various heights. You can take passengers with you. It's a lot of fun. You can find it on our website now. And don't forget, it's your journey, your experience. Enjoy the ride.
