Hitting the streets on an electric trike is an adventurous and eco-friendly way to get around town. But before embarking on any journey, safety should be the top priority. One crucial element of trike safety that can't be overlooked is visibility - ensuring you can clearly see your surroundings while also being easily seen by others. At Mooncool, we prioritize visibility across our electric trike line and accessories to keep riders secure.
The Mooncool TK1 Folding Electric Trike exemplifies our commitment to visibility with integrated safety features:
Bright LED Lighting System
This sporty electric trike comes standard with a powerful LED headlight to illuminate your path ahead, especially beneficial during dawn/dusk hours or poorly lit areas. But the lights don't stop there - the TK1 Folding also features three brilliant LED tail lights with a brake highlight function. This allows the trike to automatically brighten when decelerating, signaling your slowing down to other road users behind you so they can react accordingly.

Integrated Turn Signal Indicators
Unlike a standard bike, the TK1 Folding electric trike is equipped with built-in turn signal indicators on the handlebars. With a simple press of a button, you can signal your turns just like a car or motorcycle. This increases predictability and communication with pedestrians, cyclists, and vehicles sharing the road with you. No more awkwardly waving your arms to indicate turns!
Additionally, we take visibility a step further by offering the MC Mirrors - handlebar mirrors designed to eliminate blind spots. These easy-to-install mirrors provide an extra line of sight, allowing you to effectively monitor approaching vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists from behind. With wider visibility, you can make informed decisions on lane changes, turns, and defensive actions.
Supplementary Visibility Boosters
While the TK1's lighting system and optional MC Mirrors boost visibility tremendously, there are some other smart accessories riders can utilize:
- Wear bright, reflective clothing like a cycling jacket to stand out
- Add a safety flag for boosted visibility from all angles
- Use front and rear daytime running lights to increase your visibility profile
Safety should never be sacrificed for fun on an electric trike. With the TK1 Folding's brilliant lighting system, integrated turn signals, and additional visibility accessories, you can expect a confident, secure, and visible riding experience every time you fire up this powerful three-wheeled electric vehicle.
