Carving Three-Wheeler Scooters

The Trikke Freedom is Propelled By a Carving Motion

— November 17, 2015 — Autos
The Trikke Freedom is an innovative carving scooter that adds a surprisingly affordable electric drive to the company's well-known three-wheeler design. The vehicle costs less than $1,000 and makes use of Trikke's well-known cambering frame to convert motor propulsion to a surfy road ride.

Unlike your regular stand-up scooters, the Trikke Freedom eschews a single deck in favor of platforms for each foot. This design allows for a sharp, carving motion that regular scooters can only dream of. The rider propels the scooter with a carving motion, something which makes for a good light physical workout.

This carving scooter brings three-wheeler scooters forward by making them not just vehicles of functionality, but devices of pleasure and fun at the same time.
Trend Themes
1. Electric Carving Scooters - Innovative three-wheeler scooters with affordable electric drives and carving motions offer a new vehicle option for consumers, fusing fitness, functionality, and pleasure.
2. Cambering Frame Technology - The cambering frame technology utilized by Trikke Freedom offers opportunities for other industries to innovate and improve upon designs for vehicles, furniture, and sports equipment.
3. Platform Foot Decks - The use of platform foot decks in scooter design, as evidenced by Trikke Freedom, can inspire innovation in footwear, ergonomic office equipment, and sports equipment.
Industry Implications
1. Automotive - The automotive industry can expand their offerings to include affordable, electric-powered carving scooters that offer consumers a unique and pleasurable riding experience.
2. Furniture - Cambering frame technology used in scooter design can inspire furniture designers to incorporate similar technology in their designs, potentially revolutionizing ergonomic office furniture.
3. Sports Equipment - The Trikke Freedom's platform foot decks and carving motion can inspire new designs for sports equipment, such as skateboards, snowboards, and longboards, offering athletes new ways to train and compete.
