Electric bikes have their own environmental and health advantages. However, riding for long distances – if you’re not a pro – or when planning to go off the tarmac, an e-bike is not the best companion. Before you look for a capable pickup truck – that’ll never be the first choice for a city commute

    I know enough about physics to know that the the single wheel should be at the back or the back wheels need to be offset (think motorcycle with sidecar) if you plan to take it on anything rough otherwise you end up with your product being banned from sale (Honda three wheeler anyone?)

      If I ever injure myself to the point where I need to rehab on a three wheel before I can get back to my regular bikes, I will buy a recumbent. I’m in my 50s and I remember the ATC incidents well - I was sitting behind someone on one when I was a kid when we went over, fortunately, nobody was seriously injured, but they are very not stable.
