Looks like it would tip over all to easily.

I would also be concerned about stability of the Liberty Trike when it comes to a negative camber corner, but when the time comes I could see me riding one.

Made in the USA....I don't think so.

Much is made on here of trikes falling over, but there are plenty of electric mobility trikes that seem to remain upright despite not especially skilled handling.

Not sure the Supermarkets over here would be to happy if I rode one of those inside their shop.

That's a thought, although the shop wouldn't dare ban a mobility shopping trike.

One could argue there isn't a great deal of difference, apart from the wheel size.

Or one could argue there is, so I like you, I foresee trouble on that particular horizon.

Because they are limited to lower speed. Usually between 16 and 22 kph

The guy in the vid says the trike has a top electric speed of 7.5mph, so it comes to about the same thing.

I was talking in terms of absolute top speed not legal limits. I would be scared cornering at 13 kph already :eek:
