This unique trike design adds rigidity to an already elegant ride enabling the rider to gain confidence in the trike and also their own ability to once again get back into cycling.
Balance and mobility issues are a thing of the past with the Alpine Electric Explorer Trike. Specifically designed using wide 20" fat tyres on the front and the rear of the trike giving an ultra stable and comfortable ride even on the most uneven of surfaces such as grass, snow or sand. The trike is equally at home on the road or a towpath thanks to the front suspension forks and suspension seat post allowing the rider to make swift progress while all the time staying in complete control and comfort. Adjustable handlebars and seat means that riders of almost any size will find a comfortable riding position on the Explorer. A low step through height of only 36cm or 14" (which is the distance the foot is raised from the ground to get it through the frame) means that this trike can be ridden by almost anyone due to how easy it is to mount. Once on the trike the rider will not have to put their feet on the floor again until they wish to dismount. With an extra powerful front disc brake and double rear disc brakes this superb trike has enough stopping power for any situation. The powerful 250w motor, 5 levels of pedal assist and a throttle allows the rider to tackle steep hills and surfaces which a conventional trike simply would not be able to handle. The explorer trike comes with 2 large baskets one on the front and one on the rear perfect for holding shopping or other items that need to be carried. The rear basket also comes with an insulated waterproof removable bag designed with the convenience of shopping in mind, the bag can easily fit into a supermarket trolley, once filled with shopping it can then be placed straight onto the trike. This trike excels at doing the day to day jobs with ease. Due to the trikes low centre of gravity even the most unbalanced rider will enjoy getting back in the saddle and feel in complete control. The large and simple to use LCD display give the rider information like remaining battery level, speed and mileage and will also operate the bright front and rear lights with the flick of a switch. Mudguards are standard on the explorer so it can be ridden in the wet, this e trike truly delivers a stable supporting ride to even the most nervous riders.
With an easy to access and charge vertical battery, integrated lights that are powered by the main battery and a huge ‘simple to use and easy to see’ LCD display screen the trike is packed with quality features and components to make even the hardest trip seem easy.
