Sun Seeker Fat Tad Electric Trike Overview
The Sun Seeker Fat Tad Electric Trike is a uniquely thrilling ride that combines the fun of cycling with the power of electric propulsion. This trike is the brainchild of Sun Seeker, expertly integrated with an electric kit from Electric Bike Technologies. Designed for both on-road and off-road adventures, this trike is an exciting option for those who want a more relaxed but still exhilarating ride.
The standout feature of the Fat Tad is its impressive fat tires, which are 20 by 4 inches, providing a lot of cushions and making it capable of tackling various terrains, from sand to snow. The wide tires ensure a stable and comfortable ride, absorbing bumps and potholes easily. They also allow for adjustable tire pressure, giving the rider the ability to optimize for traction and comfort based on the surface.
Equipped with a powerful 500-watt hub motor, the trike can peak at 1,000 watts, providing enough torque (45 Newton meters) to tackle inclines and rough paths with ease. The motor, specifically designed for this trike, is a testament to Electric Bike Technologies’ ability to customize and innovate. This motor enables the trike to reach impressive speeds, with the potential to hit 26 to 27 miles per hour, making it one of the faster options in the trike market.
The trike’s power system includes a 48-volt, 10-amp-hour lithium-ion battery that is removable for easy charging and weight reduction. The battery is cleverly mounted to maintain balance and stability while riding. It also offers versatility with its five levels of power assistance, adjustable through a convenient display on the handlebar. This system not only helps with speed regulation in crowded areas but also provides a more controlled riding experience for those who prefer a leisurely pace.
Comfort is another priority in the Fat Tad’s design. The recumbent seat is adjustable, with options to move it back or forward and even change the angle, making it suitable for riders of different heights and preferences. The full suspension system further enhances the ride quality, absorbing shocks and making long journeys comfortable. Additionally, the frame, made of chromoly steel, combines strength with a bit of flexibility, contributing to the overall comfort and durability of the trike.
Safety and practicality are not overlooked in this trike. The inclusion of disc brakes on both front wheels allows for independent braking, adding an element of control that is especially useful when navigating turns. The trike also features parking brakes to keep it stationary when needed. Multiple bottle cage mounts, a rear rack with a 55-pound capacity, and protective features for the chain make the Fat Tad a practical choice for various excursions.
The digital display on the trike provides essential information such as speed, battery life, and power level. It is large, easy to read, and has a backlight for low-light conditions. The design also accommodates customization, allowing the use of different batteries if needed, a feature that showcases the flexibility and user-centric design of Electric Bike Technologies.
For those interested in converting their trikes to electric or purchasing a pre-built model, Sun Seeker and Electric Bike Technologies offer several options, including DIY kits and fully assembled models shipped in large, ready-to-ride boxes. With a price point around $2,500 and a comprehensive one-year warranty, the Sun Seeker Fat Tad Electric Trike presents a great value for those seeking adventure, comfort, and convenience in their rides.
