Two Wheels… Or Three?
e-Trikes are trending!
E-trikes (electric tricycles) are becoming a popular alternative to traditional e-bikes, offering enhanced stability, comfort, and practicality for a variety of riders.
Unlike two-wheeled e-bikes, e-trikes feature a three-wheel design that provides better balance, making them an excellent option for riders with mobility concerns, or anyone who wants a more relaxed and secure ride.
This extra stability is especially beneficial for those with balance issues, giving them the confidence to enjoy cycling without the risk of tipping over.
With their spacious design, e-trikes also often come equipped with larger batteries for extended range and built-in storage solutions, making them perfect for everything from grocery runs to kid drop offs at school, or leisurely rides along the coast.
In Carlsbad and other coastal cities, e-trikes are gaining traction for both cargo and passenger transportation.
Whether you’re looking to haul groceries, transport beach gear, or give family and friends a comfortable lift along the scenic trails, an e-trike makes local travel easy and enjoyable.
The Oh Wow E-Bike Rickshaw is an excellent example, designed to carry extra gear or passengers effortlessly.
The Conductor Plus (the rickshaw model’s official name) offers a convertible design, allowing you to quickly switch between carrying cargo to carrying passengers and back again.
This e-trike comes with a single battery or optional dual battery configuration for extended range. Other options include a front basket and small headlight or a large headlight and no basket. Also, on the new models, you can add a “Reverse Mode” option that gives you power-assisted reverse that makes parking and navigating a breeze, and a “Captain’s Chair” for a cushier ride.
The Conductor Plus is a Class II bike with 20 MPH speeds, a 1000W motor, and powerful hydraulic disc brakes for stopping power (even when carrying a load),

Other well-known brands like Rad Power Bikes, also offer high-quality e-trikes with different designs and features to suit various needs.
The Rad Trike is gaining a lot of attention – and awards – for its design. Lighter than many e-bikes, the Rad Trike can be outfitted with cargo baskets, racks, and other accessories to personalize, stylize, and excite your ride.
And the Rad Trike is not just popular among those with mobility concerns. It’s Rad’s single most-requested model in their lineup!

As more riders embrace these versatile electric bikes, they’re redefining urban and suburban mobility—providing a fun alternative for getting around town.
