Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

These 1-speed 26" Meridians are a great deal at amazon, especially for Prime members (FREE SHIPPING, saves like an additional 75 bucks). I got mine for just under $250 delivered. It seems one color or another is on sale monthly, like for $75 or more less vs. ordering one in your color of choice. For example, the August best deal was Black Cherry (when i got mine), the September deal Dark Silver. If function over form is your goal, if you can live with whatever color, then look for the special color deal before committing to buy. I am an old geezer with balance and mounting/dismounting problems using bicycles, and this trike solves both problems. The 3 wheel tripod footprint stands up on its own with you on it. There is no need to balance at slow speeds or hop on or off the bike when coming to a stop or starting at a corner -- you can just sit there on the trike and wait for the light to turn. The step-through frame also eliminates the bike mounting/dismounting difficulty I had trying to swing my leg over the back of a standard men's bicycle. This is a great light duty errand runner/grocery getter, and a fun recreational ride as well. My average speed on the flats is 6 MPH. I can accelerate 0 to 6 in 4.3 seconds, and I get a million miles per gallon. Weather permitting, I ride this Trike 2 to 3 times daily, 4-6 miles/about 1 hour per trip, 100 miles per week.
