Review
The 2016 Ice Bear Elf 50 Trike is a compact, three-wheeled machine powered by a 49.5cc single-cylinder engine. This little powerplant produces a modest 1.9 horsepower and 1.5 ft-lbs of torque, resulting in a top speed of around 42 mph. It's designed primarily for short, leisurely rides and is likely to appeal to riders who prioritize stability and ease of use over outright performance. With a seat height of just over 30 inches and a curb weight of approximately 264 pounds, the Elf 50 Trike is quite manageable. The telescopic fork front suspension and single disc brake offer basic handling and stopping power suitable for its intended purpose. The fuel tank holds about 1.2 US gallons, providing a reasonable range for local errands or recreational use. Overall, the Ice Bear Elf 50 Trike aims to provide an accessible and confidence-inspiring riding experience for those who might be new to motorcycling or prefer the added stability of a three-wheeled platform. Its modest power output and straightforward design make it a practical option for low-speed transportation and gentle cruising.
