We search for prices on over 120 bike retailers to guarantee that we find the lowest prices – to save you time and money.

It’s a promise we stand behind: If you find a lower price on a bike elsewhere, we will sell it to you for 10% less. For example, if you find a bike for $480 that we have listed at $500, we will offer you to buy it for $432 through BikeRide. The bike must be the same color and size, sold in the US and not include the use of a coupon.

If you find a lower price, email us at [email protected] with documentation of the price. We’re committed to making sure that the cost of a bike does not keep you from cycling!

Summary of Reviews

We have read all expert and user reviews on the Lectric XP Trike. In summary, this is what cyclists think.

16 reasons to buy

  • A folding frame and stem mean the XP Trike is easier to store and transport.
  • The XP Trike arrives fully assembled: unfold it, extend the handlebars, and it's ready to ride.
  • Testers say features like folding and rear drive distinguish this model from pricier alternatives.
  • Reviewers appreciate safety features like the 14mph max speed, integrated lights, and parking brake.
  • A 'beginner mode' limits the XP Trike to 5mph, allowing first-time riders to get comfortable with handling.
  • Experts say the 20" x 2.6" tires provide good grip.
  • The XP Trike is relatively lightweight for this category (69.5lb).
  • The rearward location of the motor improves traction, compared to e-trikes with front-hub motors.
  • The XP Trike can support riders up to 330lb and a total payload of 415lb.
  • Experts appreciate how the dual-differential axle makes for easier, safer turns. One says it "performs beautifully."
  • Reviewers and owners say the hydraulic disc brakes with 180mm rotors provide reliable braking, even in wet conditions.
  • The XP Trike has impressive climbing ability, according to testers.
  • Several experts note how well the XP Trike tackles light off-road terrain.
  • Adjustable handlebar height and reach help riders from 4'10" to 6'4" find a comfortable position.
  • Experts say the display is easy to see, even in direct sunlight.
  • Reviewers and users report that the XP Trike feels stable in turns.

3 reasons not to buy

  • Many owners complain that their XP Trikes arrived with damaged parts, like bent fenders.
  • When folded, the display rests dangerously close to other parts, potentially damaging the screen.
  • One rider wishes the XP Trike had a seat with a backrest. This must be purchased separately.

Bottom line

The Lectric XP Trike is a folding electric tricycle. Experts say the ride is smooth, comfortable, and fun. They also praise the 60-mile battery range, stability, and ability to tackle hills. While the XP Trike arrives fully built, some users complain about damaged components on delivery. Another rider laments the lack of a backrest on the seat. However, for riders seeking the benefits of a three-wheeler with electric assist, Lectric's e-trike offers compelling value.

Lectric XP Trike First Ride: Testing the Low-Cost Electric Trike Made for Everyone

It can haul. It can climb. It can fold. It’s a three-wheeled Swiss Army knife with a ridiculous amount of torque and seating for one. Even with only a few hours in the saddle, I can already tell you that this is absolutely going to be a major hit… if they can keep it in stock.

Lectric XP Trike Review ~ Best Bang for the Buck Electric Tricycle in 2023!

At this price point with the 14Ah battery, hydraulic brakes, this thing folding, the power that it has, and my opinion is it seems like a really great deal compared to what else is out there in the market right now.

Lectric XP Trike First Ride Part 2 Big Bear’s Wild Donkeys in Shay Meadow

She says it goes really fast real quick, brakes work good, it’s fun to ride. She liked the tight turning radius… and that it doesn’t tip over. She… wishes it had suspension (I agree. After riding a full suspension bike, it’s a real let down).

This Trike performed better than I thought it would — quite fast enough and great braking.

Pulchritudinous Peregrination Episode 03 – Lectric XP Electric Trike. Tulsa, Oklah. Double Amputee.

Shipping company allowed both rear fenders to be bent. I needed to use some elbow grease and a little creativity to pry them and keep them from rubbing against the tires. Loving my new electric trike so far!
