Hi I am new to this group and hope you lovely people can help me.
Iam considering a Di blasi r34 but am confused regarding the actual specification.
I have been told that there is no electric only mode (twist grip) only pedal assist but a max of 5mph, is this right. Our existing e bikes are not limited to any speed on pedal assist. I could understand 5mph if it was on electric only (walk pace) Also how stable are they. Range on pedal assist.
Thank you

Not very stable and you wouldn't want to ride one at 25 kph / 15.5 mph anyway. See this previous thread answers:

Hi, only just come across this conversation. Did you get your Di Blasi? I have 2 trikes and now need a Di Blasi as well since it folds enough to go on public transport. I have tried a couple and felt the R34 to be underpowered compared to my other trikes. I too need hill climbing capabilities so would love to hear how you have got on.
PS they are no more difficult or unstable than any other trike, it’s just that riding any trike is completely different to riding a bike and can be a bit of a learning curve to start with. Camber soon ceases to be a problem.
