I purchased a used MC_D50TKA that had about 600 miles on it and it worked great for a while. It just isn't built with quality in mind, but low cost. This trike isn't any easier to ride than a two wheeled scooter, and in fact, can at times be more dangerous because of the independent suspension. When hitting bumps or potholes the front wheels bounce separate from each other making it difficult to control.

My trike lasted about 1000 miles before the odometer, speedometer, and battery died. I just bought a new battery and used it as is until the steering/direction column broke after another 1500-2000 miles. I'm planning to buy the $70 part, repair it myself since the local dealership charges $70/hr for service, then sell it before something else breaks.

Oh, I think the front wheel alignment might be off so the tires are wearing out faster than normal and unevenly.

If you can get a bigger trike without the independent suspension you'll have a smoother ride and be able to keep up with traffic. The bigger ones just aren't legal in California so I didn't get much of a choice.
