12 reasons not to buy

Three testers say the motor cuts out intermittently while riding.
An expert and multiple owners say the TriGo doesn’t track straight because the rear axle isn’t perpendicular to the frame.
A 5’11” reviewer says their knees almost touch the handlebars while pedaling.
Experts and owners find assembly very complicated and time-consuming.
Testers and buyers receive bikes with missing or incorrect parts.
Viribus claims the rear basket supports 110lb, but experts doubt this capacity, calling the basket rickety.
The reflector on the seatpost blocks battery removal.
The ill-fitting fenders and chain guard rattle and rub, according to owners and experts.
The base build’s V-brake and band brake combination deliver poor stopping power in testing.
Two experts say the chain falls off during testing.
Buyers find Viribus’s customer support unresponsive and unhelpful.
Viribus provides contradictory specs about the builds, such as bike weight and rider height.

Bottom line

The Viribus TriGo is a budget e-trike available in three builds, each with the choice of 24” or 26” wheels. The base build has single-speed gearing and a 250W motor; the Plus and Pro builds have 350W motors, 7-speed gearing, and mechanical disc brakes. The step-through frame, smooth power delivery, and low price win points with reviewers. However, frequent complaints indicate a lack of quality control. Testers report motor cut-offs, instability, ill-fitting or missing parts, arduous assembly, and slipping chains. The flimsy rear basket, measly height range, and weak motors also disappoint. The TriGo seems like a bargain, but buyers should consider a more reliable alternative.
