I have ordered this Copenhagen wheel for for ICE recumbent trike.
Delivery should be soon.
Had a look on the ‘net and found some information, but it has only been the more recent information that I found relevant.
I have had a couple of upright bikes with the Bosch system, ultimately I have not been impressed overall, but that’s another thread.
The only real alternatives for the trike have been the Shimano Steps, and the GoSwiss ( which I think is the better of the two options).
The Bafang doesn’t really impress me either, looks a little amateur in its design etc, I am sure there are others who really like it , but it’s not for me.
What I like is the fact that it is simply enclosed in the rear wheel, the weight distribution is ok on the trike, can’t see it affecting the handling as it’s a different animal to an upright.
Quiet operation, this was one aspect of the Bosch that I didn’t like at all.
Simple to swap in and out , have a choice to have an e assist trike or not.
Downsides are cost and range.
Any others out there that have tried it , or own it?
