How Fast Does an E-TRIKE Go at Each Pedal Assist Level? | Electric Tricycle Questions

Peter at Sixthreezero. E-trikes and e-bikes and bikes, how fast do you go in each level of pedal-assist on an e-trike? Hey, everyone. So let's see how fast we go at each level of pedal assist. I'm going to go ahead and start at zero. I'm on zero right now, and I'm just going to start pedaling under my own power. Right now, I'm currently going three miles, four miles an hour. So under my own power, I'm going about four or five miles an hour. It's starting to go downhill a little bit. So that's going to help me. I'm going to put it into a pedal-assist one. Yeah, that helped me out a little bit. But I'm also going downhill. Let's go to this straightaway here and see what happens.

Yeah. Six miles an hour. So let's put it in pedal-assist two. I can feel it pick up. I'm going seven, eight miles an hour. That doesn't sound very fast actually, because you're used to driving a car. But this is a quick run. This is a quick run right here. I'm going to turn around now, Nate. Here we go. We'll hit this straightaway again. And get back up to speed and I'm going to hit pedal-assist three. I actually have to upshift. I'm hitting 10, 11 miles an hour right now. Cool. I'm going to go out into the parking lot. I'm going to curve around and put it into four and go that way. Yeah. Nine miles an hour currently. And I've shifted into... I'm only in second gear. I'm going to fourth or fifth gear here. All right. After I come around here and hit this straightaway, I'm going to put it up another notch on the pedal assist. I can put it on pedal-assist four.

Okay, there we go. Pedal-assist four. 12, 13 miles an hour. Cool. All right. Now I'm going to make a turn here, and then we'll see what happens with five. This is full power. I'm at 12, 13, and 14. Make this curve here. Watch out on curves on a tricycle, guys. I'm hardly working at all actually. I'm at 14 miles an hour. So I'd put a max speed of about 15 miles an hour on a flat surface, depending on how hard you're willing to pedal. Obviously, downhill, the sky's the limit. Have fun.
