Power That Reads You — Torque-Sensing Pedal Assist
The T1's torque sensor measures how hard you pedal — not just that you're pedaling — and matches the 750W rear hub motor's output to your effort in real time. It feels like your own legs, amplified: no surging, no lag, just smooth, intuitive acceleration from the first crank.
Stop with Authority. Park with Confidence.
Full hydraulic disc brakes clamp 180 mm rotors front and rear, delivering firm, fade-resistant stopping power with light lever effort — plus instant motor cutoff when you brake. The integrated hydraulic parking lock holds the trike completely still, keeping every mount and dismount steady and worry-free.
Recline. Relax. Ride All Day.
Three wheels mean the T1 balances itself — you never have to. Settle into the breathable mesh sling seat with adjustable backrest and padded headrest, and the low, reclined position takes pressure off your wrists, neck, and lower back. Mile twenty feels as good as mile one.
52V Energy, Built on LG Cells
More voltage means stronger hill performance and steadier output under load. The 52V 16Ah battery is built with genuine LG lithium-ion cells and paired with a 25A waterproof controller, giving you up to 28 miles of dependable range and consistent power from full charge to final mile.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the real difference between torque sensing and cadence sensing — and why does the T1 use a torque sensor?
A cadence sensor only detects *that* you're pedaling and delivers a preset amount of power, which can feel jerky or "all or nothing." The T1's torque sensor measures *how hard* you're pedaling and scales motor output to match, hundreds of times per second. The ride feels natural and controllable — especially valuable on a recumbent trike, where smooth, predictable power makes low-speed maneuvering and hill starts far more confident.
What real-world range should I actually expect from the 52V 16Ah battery?
The rated figure is up to 28 miles (45 km), and that's an honest, real-world-oriented number — not a lab-only best case. Your actual range depends on assist level, throttle use, rider and cargo weight, terrain, and temperature. Riding primarily on moderate pedal assist over flat-to-rolling terrain, most riders will land near the rated range; heavy throttle-only cruising or steep climbs with a loaded trailer will reduce it. The LG cells inside also hold their capacity better over hundreds of charge cycles than generic cells, so the range you get in year one stays closer to the range you get in year three.
Are hub motors harder to maintain than mid-drives?
Actually, the opposite in most cases. A rear hub motor like the T1's is sealed, has no serviceable wear parts in normal use, and — unlike a mid-drive — doesn't route its power through your chain and drivetrain. That means your KMC chain, Shimano derailleur, and freewheel wear at ordinary bicycle rates rather than accelerated ones. Routine care is simple: keep the chain clean and lubricated, check brake pads periodically, and keep tires at proper pressure.
I haven't ridden in years and I'm worried about balance and stability. Is the T1 right for me?
This is exactly who the T1 was engineered for. Three wheels mean the trike stands on its own — at a stoplight, at walking pace, or fully stopped, you never put a foot down or balance anything. The hydraulic parking brake locks the trike stationary while you get on and off, and the low reclined seat means mounting is a simple sit-down motion rather than a leg swing. Many T1 riders are returning to cycling after years away, and the learning curve is measured in minutes.
Do hydraulic disc brakes need a lot of maintenance?
No — day to day, they need less attention than mechanical brakes because they self-adjust as the pads wear, so lever feel stays consistent. There are no cables to stretch or re-tension. Plan on a pad inspection every few hundred miles (pads are inexpensive and quick to replace) and a fluid bleed roughly once a year or when the lever begins to feel spongy — a standard service at any bike shop. In exchange, you get stronger, more consistent stopping power with far less hand effort, which matters on a loaded trike.
