I Found My E-Trike! I'm Overweight, Have Severe Arthritis & this Electric Trike Has Changed My Life!

I'm Kelly, from South Texas, and I am the proud owner of a sixthreezero Simple Glide fat tire 750-watt recumbent e-trike with footrest. Long name, but I wanted to get it all in. This has been a game changer for me. So let me start with my story with Sixthreezero. I first bought an e-bike from them that was a semi-recumbent e-bike, and I was so excited about it. Got the bike and realized that I had a few issues, not with the bike, but with myself. So I'm 60 years old, overweight, and I have arthritis badly, especially in my knees. So, trying to ride the e-bike, even though it was semi-recumbent, it was hard for me to get my feet up on the pedals. I also had this horrible fear of falling, and so I was struggling with trying to balance on the e-bike. I tried it out for a couple of weeks and still just wasn't getting it.

I would ride with one foot on a pedal and the other foot down, and it was fun, but not the experience that I wanted, so sixthreezero is an excellent company. I had no problems with returning that bike and was so excited, though, about getting my other bike that, before the e-bike even got to them, I ordered this one because I couldn't wait to get back out and keep riding. So with this bike, I can get my feet on the pedals. I'm able to sit comfortably on the bike, and since it's a trike, you don't have to worry about the fear of falling. So that's made a big difference for me because I can focus more on trying to pedal again. I still am not pedaling. I'm using the full assist and enjoying myself. I've gotten where getting on and off the bike or the track is easier for me and just riding it is easier at first.

It hurt my legs just to have them on the pedals because it was stretching muscles that hadn't been stretched in years, and so it's getting to where I'm able to move my feet more on the pedals. And so, eventually my goal is to be able to ride the bike using pedal assist. And I know that I'm going to get there. So I've taken the bike out on several rides. We've ridden out in the country on dirt roads. We've ridden on bike trails that were paved, we've ridden on Paved streets by us, my husband rides with me, and so it's just a lot of fun to get out with each other and be able to ride. So I'm gonna give you some examples of some of the rides that we've gone on, and I hope that you enjoy these. One of the things I like about the Simple Glide Fat Tire 750 Watt e-Trike is the fat tires. We have a lot of country around us, and those fat tires make those country roads a lot smoother to ride on. You also can't go wrong with the seat on this e-trike.

It's comfortable, and you can just sit back, relax, and enjoy your ride. Also, notice how well this e-trike takes the hills going in and out of the tunnels on this bike path. So this ride was recorded in real time, and I'm riding about 18 miles per hour. Again, with those fat tires, you've got that smooth ride. So I hope that my video has helped you in making some decisions about getting an e-trike or an e-bike and getting out of the house, getting outdoors, and enjoying yourself. This has changed me physically, mentally, and emotionally. I love getting outside now. I love being in the fresh air. So I hope it helps you at least a little bit to make that decision, and I hope that you'll join me in being part of the Sixthreezero family.
