In a growing field of recumbent trikes, Three Wheels of Magic (TWM) redefines expectations by combining advanced engineering, ergonomic comfort, and powerful electric assist into one elegant design. While leading brands like Catrike, ICE, HP Velotechnik, Azub, and TerraTrike offer exceptional quality, TWM brings a new standard of value, especially for those seeking safety, comfort, recreation, fitness, and rehabilitation.
🔧 Engineering Superiority: Rear Hub Motor + Rear Battery + Rear Suspension
At the heart of TWM’s ride quality is a unique trio:
-
Rear-mounted Falco eDrive hub motor
-
Low, centered rear battery mount
-
Integrated rear suspension
This design creates a synergistic effect that significantly improves stability, traction, and comfort, especially compared to front-motor or mid-drive systems found in other brands.
How It Enhances Rideability:
-
Improved Rear Traction: By concentrating weight on the rear drive wheel, grip is maximized, enabling confident hill climbing and smooth acceleration—even on loose gravel or uneven terrain.
-
Low Center of Gravity: Keeps the trike planted and stable through corners and emergency stops.
-
Suspension Synergy: Rear suspension absorbs shocks directly beneath the battery and motor, resulting in a butter-smooth ride unmatched in this price class.
This setup is ideal for riders with balance concerns, those in rehab, or anyone who simply wants a safer and more grounded ride experience.
🛡️ Safety and Stability
Compared to brands like ICE and Azub (which often rely on mid-drives or front-assist setups), TWM's rear-focused layout reduces the risk of tip-over or loss of control. Its wide track, low frame, and weight distribution make it especially suitable for older adults or riders with mobility challenges.
-
Falco wireless motor assist adds indoor functionality and simplifies operation.
-
LED front and rear lighting, reflective tires, and a stable wheelbase keep riders visible and secure.
🧘♂️ Comfort & Rehabilitation
TWM was built with recovery and physical wellness in mind. Its ergonomic seat, low step-through, and vibration-dampening design reduce joint stress while allowing for a full range of leg motion—ideal for:
-
Cardiac rehab
-
Knee/hip replacement recovery
-
Parkinson’s, MS, and stroke survivors
Compare this with TerraTrike’s “Rambler EVO” or HP Velotechnik’s “Scorpion,” and you’ll see TWM holds its own, at nearly half the price, but with equal or better therapeutic value.
🚴♂️ Recreation & Fitness
TWM’s Falco eDrive system offers:
-
Pedal-assist, throttle, and regenerative braking
-
Wireless controls or app control
-
Up to 100+ miles of range
Whether you're training, commuting, or enjoying a leisurely ride through the trails, TWM enables both exercise and exploration, without overexertion.
Catrike and Azub are known for precision handling and sporty rides, but they lack the seamless integration of assist + comfort that TWM delivers out of the box.
💰 Value and Accessibility
Let’s talk price. TWM offers:
-
Complete electric trike with motor, battery, console —for under $3,000 with tons of optional features such as lights, fenders, and more
-
Compare that to $6,500–$11,000 price tags on similarly equipped trikes from HP Velotechnik or ICE.
Despite its affordability, TWM doesn't cut corners. It’s built on a solid chromoly steel frame, comes with a wireless 5-phase hub motor, and includes extensive post-purchase support.
Final Verdict: The Trike for Every Rider
Three Wheels of Magic is more than a recumbent trike—it’s a gateway to freedom, especially for riders with health concerns, older adults, or anyone who values safety without sacrificing fun.
While ICE, Azub, HP, TerraTrike, and Catrike all have their strengths, none offer the combination of rear-motor control, comfort-forward design, and full electric integration at TWM’s price point.
Whether you’re recovering from injury, returning to riding after years away, or simply seeking a new way to explore—Three Wheels of Magic delivers.
