Custom Electric Recumbent

Price: $1,459.00

When only the best in comfort, amenities, and quality will do, this here's the one for you.

We start with a KHS recumbent bicycle and attach a Crystalye 404 front drive hub motor (nominal rated at 500W sustained, 750 watt or better peak output) built onto a 16" double walled rim using 13 gage spokes for maximum in strength and safety.

Add to that a variable voltage controller, full harness - with key switch, fuse and charger port, and an 8 function Cat Eye digital speedometer. For further bells and whistles we also added a Watts Up^© power meter, and a Cat Eye Sportsman Headlight! We power this beauty with four 12 volt/5.0Ah SLA batteries (power punch of SLA, but smaller Ah batteries for keeping weight low and easy to shape) delivering a total of 48V. Additional batteries may be added, and larger Ah batteries for extended range and performance. Type of battery may be changed at any time.

Flexible, powerful, and ultra comfortable. Wow.

For all that you get, it was a good price to start with. If you don't see the value in this sales price, then you don't want it. It deserves a good home. Someone to buy it, cherish it, appreciate it. We do have other things, if you like, we can help you find the vehicle that best serves your needs.

Dual Drive Custom Electric Bike!

We took one part Currie Tech. CR36V450 Electric Bike and one part Crystalyte Hub Motor, put it together for one lean mean street machine! Form follows function fantastically in this dual motor system designed to concur some steep Portland hills, and with the dual battery pack, provides a commute range from Milwaukee to Beaverton. Ask about making one for you!

Sold for: $1,000.00 - Un-Available for Current Production

Here is a rear drive Trek. Our friend in Hood River, Oregon, has some steep hills to climb, but it's working!

Rear drive gives better traction, whereas front drive grips less on gravel or dirt hills when going up hill, but front generally gives you better handling, pulling you into a turn much like front wheel drive in cars.

Jason went for the standard commuter bike adapted with a front hub motor. Many of our clients are commuters who love to ride to work, but has a hill or two in the way that required some assistance so they do not get to work all sweaty and stinky. Phew!

A triumph of form and function, this electrified EZ-trike is for a heart attack victim that needed to regain his stamina by cycling, but needed the power to get back home if his heart started having trouble. Brilliant!

In the ministry, a great group of men and women from a Monastery and convent in California who we enjoyed so much working with to build their kit. A testament to their beliefs, the Mother of the Convent did not covet the Bishop's new Crystalyte Trike... they came back and got one for themselves! Thanks to these wonderful men and women who serve their faith in humility and dignity. We will never forget you.

AK loved her trike so much, her husband got one as well. Together they have put over a thousand miles riding together. Mr. AK is also in the ministry (yes, this is a trend - some people know that it's simply the right thing to do, for today and for our future generations) A great way to explore an area without burning up tons of fuel for an RV or Camper.

MB had us build an electric "Chariot" to go to the Burning Man event - no doubt dressed as a gladiator. It's a home made trike with a large platform behind the seat. Using a 750W motor and 72V, this is one chariot that would make the Romans drool!

From the east coast:

"Attached is a photo of my 'completed' custom EV Warrior III. It uses the 505 motor with the 35amp controller, powered by a double string of 12V, 7A batteries to make 36V, 14A.

In a recent run at Mason-Dixon Dragstrip it did the 1/8 mile in less than 28 seconds. The lights and other extras are powered by a solar panel recharged 12V cell phone battery. Thanks for including me in your photo file." Doc Kennedy, Mountain Lightning Racing Team

Also from Doc, his label "Doc's Folly", is a trike with solar cells on an upper canopy. Interesting...

Batteries Packed!

Here is a simple, if not particularly attractive solution for finding a place for extra batteries. I would recommend some double sided sticky foam tape though in all the places where the batteries have pressure applied to the to minimize shock damage and physical wear on the battery itself.

Another nice recumbent trike with Hub Motor from our friend in the Seattle area, it's really cool what you can do with a trike and a hub motor:

One of the first recumbent tricycles we custom built. A wonderful 72 year old woman now enjoys riding with the hubby on a sunny afternoon. Go get 'em! Sun EZ trike with a 500 watt, dual speed hub motor, 36V controller, and loads of love.
