Fiik Drifter 1000W Electric Drift Trike

This is one of the best electric driven drifting trikes out there. Has to rear wheel motors as oppose to front wheel driven one, so much fun to use acceleration switch to control the drift. The battery keeps dying. I am on my third one. They are quite expensive and only last one year or less, not sure what the deal is. Also, brakes are weak. Full hydraulic with adequate size rotor is need for this beast. Most of the time you can stop by rapid counter drifting, but sometimes you wish you had better brakes, especially on shared roads. Overall, I would say it is a great experience and fun, but wish something was done about poor battery longevity. Brakes can be replaced.

Fiik Drifter Review:
Incredible! I went into research-geek mode for a year+, and after considering everything, I discovered that the Fiik Drifter is the uncontested, best rear-wheel drive, electric Drift Trike on the market. I love speed, and even with its Epic Alpha-status, before I received my Drifter, I was thinking I may need to easily mod it for faster speed. After 1 ride in, I discovered I don't. At full-send in Speed 4, my first ride was a mix of high-adrenaline excitement + borderline scary = just what I wanted! If it ain't fast, it ain't fun. This thing is fast and even with the Drift Sleeves on, I can approach 30 miles per hour on the flat, which feels closer to 100 mph since you're 4 inches off the ground. It does not lack for speed! (If I want more speed in a year or two, I'll start by just installing bigger wheels onto the back, but I'm enjoying every moment now and right outta the box. To keep my Drifter 'on the road' even longer, I took it into my local specialty Bike Shop, who thought it was cool, and had them add a thorn-proof tire upgrade to the front pneumatic wheel, just in case). This thing is also big. I'm 6 foot 2, and don't even need the seat all the way back, which is awesome! The 4 different speeds are great for a variety of users, ages, and entry-levels. I tell my young nephews they can drift in Speed 1 and Sprint in Speed 2. Every kid who rides it immediately wants to get their own. (My cousin in the military even said 'That's nuts!' after being impressed with its drifting, speed, power, and performance). Speed 4 is perfect for Adult sprint mode in a path with no tight turns, while Speeds 2-3 are optimized for drifting. It's not too heavy at about 77 lbs with the 12 lb battery installed. I can load and unload into and out of my truck when I want to take it somewhere. It's quiet, sleek, minimalistic, covert, and has the newer black-anodized motor housings, which I wanted. I live in a subdivision, with a school parking lot nearby, which is perfect! Anywhere you see concrete or asphalt, these areas are magically transformed into your Drifter Playground. The sky is the limit! At first glance from a distance (and especially if you put free-spinning cranks on it) it's not clear if it's motorized or not, which is another plus. Different kinds of asphalt surface affect drifting, which makes the whole experience dynamic, changeable, diverse, and fun! I short-raced my uncle in his Tesla, and he said I got to up 30 mph! It's not super cheap, but Epic Alpha status never is. It's reasonably priced in comparison, especially when you consider all the R and D, the rising costs of building something equal yourself, and other flagship electric recreational mobility options in other platforms, like the Baja Board, which can cost $4k-$5k.
Big thanks to the incredible staff of Epic Wheels for answering my countless questions, for resolving a minor issue that came up, for commendable customer service, for making these available, and for spreading smiles across the USA! This is not a toy for toddlers, and you're never gonna find this at Walmart. It's probably my most fun purchase of all time! Even my family members who initially made fun of me for getting one, now love it, smile big while drifting on it, and have been converted by the Fiik Drifter lol. Their smiles and repeat rides don't lie. This is basically a Big Wheels on Steroids ... for Fully Grown Adults. This is flagship Epic electric recreation, and you should definitely get one. (This is also the same Drift Trike Will Smith rode and bought 6 of). If Batman had a Drift Trike, this would be it!

Overall experience was outstanding. The team at Epic Wheelz are professionals of the highest level. I was very pleased with the speed of the delivery like 2 days after tracking info was sent. This is the new version of the drifter, it only has 2 plugs in the back for the motors. The power on the 4th level is great the other levels are for kids, the price is in the product but could be better. At that price point Evolve and Super 73 are better overall. This is still a nice product worth about $1799 not $3200 I don't regret my purchase however I would do it again, just too much money. Fun factor is high drifting takes time to learn and you will fall over even though the wheels are far apart in the back. 360d's are scary nothing like on line videos this thing feels dangerous to use, I actually feel safer on my onewheel or Evole skateboard. Anyway the kids love it at least for now. I would get one if you have already had everything else, Onewheel, Boosted Rev, Mini x, Stealth, Segway x260 Kingsong s18, Evolve Carbon GTR 2n1, Weped GT50, Dulatron Compact, Zero FX, and even a fu*king Harley Livewire. Then I would say go for it!

I was a bit skeptical of ordering from Epic because I have never heard of them and only learned of then via Google. However, I called and had a very candid conversation with an overly honest employee. He answered all my questions quickly, accurately, and most importantly, professionally. I would buy from them again with confidence knowing I will be taken care of.

The FIIK Drifter seems to be a quality product. It will most definitely give riders a great experience. We are in our 60’s, and this trike reminds me of the fun I had when I was a young man. Would defiantly recommend. Epic Wheelz delivered within a few days of ordering, and their price was great.
