  • How is yours set up? I suppose it’s a larger trike than this one?

    The guys at the e-bike shop spoke positively of this iZip trike. Just wondering if it’s worth investing at a minimum the £100 on new batteries.

    I can imagine shifting the bricks and pallet wood will be stupidly easy on this thing, but seems a bit cumbersome otherwise.

  • Not a photo of ours but we use both kinds of trike in this photo so pretty different to what you've got!
    Did they give you an idea of how much yours might be worth? If it's not an awful lot maybe it's not worth spending the £100 to get it running when that's £100 you could put towards somehing else. If you think you could make a decent amount back if you sold it on maybe it'd be worth the expense to give it a go and see how you get on with it?

  • Valid points regarding investing. I suppose it’s been this white elephant on the porch for months so I’m prejudiced against it. Gotta try it - a true cargo biek is a bigger investment, and none local to test ride.

    Someone managed to sell a working trike for as low as £250, but surprisingly another is currently being bid on over £170 missing its batteries. Pretty sure mum paid over the odds at £400 plus a two hour round trip last year. Probably gonna take a big hit when selling it, just for the satisfaction of getting that footprint back.

    I suppose that the £100 battery-premium could be recovered if we accepted how little the unit will sell for otherwise.
