If you want to see a video of us riding this around, you can find it on the YouTube channel, or if you're on the product page, should be on there as well. Now, I want to give you some dimensions so everyone can understand, put the parking brakes on here, how this can fit in certain places, and where you can drive it. Okay, now, first and foremost, the length from the front of the tire to the rear is 66 inches. And the width here in the back is 29 and a half inches. So you'll be able to steer this through any standard doorway. Now, from the top of the seat to the ground is 49 and a half inches. Unfortunately, the seat is not easily removable. So if you are transporting it, you would need to have an opening that's 49 and a half inches high. Now with the wheel turned, the length is 63 inches. Okay. And the cool thing is this low step-over height here, which is 13 and a half inches. And then right here, you've got this opening from here to the front of the seat, which is 16 inches.

Okay. Let's see. And from the seat to the pedals is 19 inches. From the backrest to the stem right here is 32 inches. Now, the cool thing about these handlebars is they are very adjustable here. So you can find honestly, whatever the ideal position is, but I'll go ahead and measure. Let's just measure the absolute closest position right here. Okay. So right there. Okay. So if you see right there, I mean, you can get the handlebars within six inches of the armrest, and then with to the backrest here, that's 19 and a half inches. So you can accommodate varying heights. Okay, now I've got the seat slid forward to the most forward position. And from here now the backrest is 27 and a half inches from the stem here. And these pedals, like I said, now from the front of the seat down here is 19 inches away. The back, seat is 20 inches wide. And let's see. So the tires back here are 20 inches by 2.125 inches. The front tire here is a 16, sorry, these are 2.5 inches. So 16 by 2.5 inch and 20 by 2.5 inch. Also fully assembled as you see it here, this weighs 91 pounds. Now you can also fold the handlebars down here, but it's not gonna do much for you because the height of the seat is the absolute highest part here. All right, let's just see, let's give you some other measurements here.

From the rear axle to the pedals is 30 inches. Axle to axle right here is 51 and a half inches. The width of the seat here is 20. So this is 20 by 20. The height of just the backrest is 23 and a half inches. The width is 17 inches. The armrest here is 10 inches and three inches wide. All right. And then the grips to the handles are five and a half inches with the seat all the way forward. And then let's measure the handlebars here for you. So the handlebars, the height is 10 inches and the width here is 23 and a half inches wide. So you have a lot of flexibility. Also, let's take a look here. Right here. So that's as high as the handlebars go. Right there. Let's just measure. I'll measure the handlebars. Let's see. Unlock here. Okay. Bring those up. So you can see. Just trying to adjust my bars here. Let's put those. Okay. Now, if you wanted to get these farther away from the armrest. Now those grips are 17 and a half inches away from the armrest. So if you have long arms, you can get that proper arm extension and get the correct position that'll keep you comfortable. And from the ground to the top of the handle, to the top of the grips is 51 inches. So actually at the highest, the grips are almost as high or about the same height as the backrest here.

Who the Simple Glide 500W Is Built For?

The Simple Glide 500W is our compact recumbent e-trike for riders who want stability and comfort in a smaller size. It suits seniors, riders with limited mobility or balance concerns, and anyone who finds a regular bike hard to get on. The 13.5-inch step-over means you barely lift your foot, and the chair-style seat with a backrest and armrests supports your back and arms. The 500W motor handles flat streets, paths and gentle slopes. If you ride on steep hills often, a 750W trike will feel easier.

Will It Fit in Your Home?

Width matters most when you store a trike indoors. The Simple Glide 500W is 29.5 inches wide at the rear, so it rolls through doorways that are at least 30 inches wide. Many older homes have narrower interior doors, so measure before you buy. It’s 66 inches long, about the length of a small sofa, and turning the front wheel shortens it to 63 inches, which helps in tight hallways or a crowded garage. If you live in an apartment, check that your elevator is longer than 66 inches and wide enough for the trike plus you beside it.

Will It Fit in Your Car?

At 66 inches long and 91 lbs, the Simple Glide 500W won’t fit in most car trunks or back seats. The easiest way to take it with you is a hitch-mounted carrier rated for e-trikes, or a pickup truck or van. If you need a trike that fits inside a car, look at a folding model such as the Easy Transit 750W, which folds to fit a hatchback or SUV.

How It Compares to Our Larger Trikes

The Simple Glide 500W is one of our more compact recumbent trikes. The Simple Glide Fat Tire 750W adds fat 4-inch tires and a stronger motor for rougher paths and hills. The EVRYjourney Rickshaw adds a passenger bench but weighs 158 lbs. If you want the easiest step-on with the smallest footprint for neighborhood rides, the Simple Glide 500W is the one to choose.
