Recumbent Electric Trikes (Delta & Tadpole) – Exercise, Stability & Comfort

Recumbent electric trikes (recumbent tricycles) place you in a reclined, back-supported position with a low center of gravity for confident handling. Available in delta (1F/2R) and tadpole (2F/1R) layouts, they offer greater stability than upright trikes and a super fun, secure ride.

Ideal for riders seeking low-impact exercise, better leg extension, and reduced pressure on knees, back, wrists, and neck. Many riders—especially seniors or those doing rehab/physical therapy—prefer the ergonomic seating and smooth, balanced feel of a recumbent e-trike.

All models are expert-built and ready to ride. Use the filters on the left to choose by layout (delta/tadpole), seat type, wheel size, range, and brand. See our X-Seam sizing guide and Shipping/Warranty info below.

All of our recumbent models are also fully modular and easy to service. Local bike shops can help with the mechanical side, and ElectricTrike.com provides exclusive Rescue Pack diagnostic kits. With support from our US-based team, most riders can quickly diagnose and resolve electrical issues at home — a level of service unique to ElectricTrike.com.

FAQs

What is the difference between a delta and a tadpole recumbent trike?

A delta recumbent trike has one wheel in the front and two wheels in the back, while a tadpole trike has two wheels in the front and one in the back. Delta trikes typically have a tighter turning radius and higher seating position, while tadpoles are lower to the ground and often more aerodynamic. Both offer excellent stability compared to upright trikes.
Are recumbent trikes good for seniors or people with knee problems?

Yes. Recumbent trikes provide full leg extension and a reclined, back-supported seat that reduces stress on the knees, hips, and spine. This makes them ideal for older riders, people in physical therapy, or anyone seeking low-impact exercise with maximum stability.
Are recumbent electric trikes safe and easy to ride?

Absolutely. With a low center of gravity, wide stance, and three-wheel balance, recumbent trikes are among the most stable bikes available. They are easy to mount, comfortable to ride, and designed to keep you confident whether cruising the neighborhood, exercising, or running errands.
How are recumbent trikes serviced if something goes wrong?

All of our recumbent electric trikes use modular electrical systems that are simple to maintain. Local bike shops can handle mechanical work, while ElectricTrike.com offers exclusive Rescue Pack diagnostic kits. With a Rescue Pack and help from our US-based support team, most riders can troubleshoot and fix electrical issues themselves.
