Gyroor entered the e-mobility space in 2012. The company first focused on EV components before moving into consumer products. By 2014, Gyroor expanded into hoverboards and later diversified into multiple rideables. The Gyroor C5 electric trike sits at the slower, utility-focused end of the lineup.
The C5 targets low-speed urban mobility. Top speed is capped at 12.4 mph or 20 km/h. This design choice prioritizes stability and safety over outright performance. The trike supports riders and cargo up to 300 lbs or 136 kg. Vehicle weight stands at 84 lbs or 38.5 kg. The foldable steering column helps with storage, not portability.
Power comes from a 650 W front hub motor with a 1,000 W peak output. Acceleration feels adequate for city paths and short trips. The low-speed tuning aligns with the trike’s cargo and comfort role rather than speed.
Handling benefits from an independent double wishbone suspension. Each wheel moves separately. This setup improves ride quality on uneven roads. Many budget e-trikes skip this feature. The suspension also reduces vibration transfer to cargo in the baskets.
Gyroor positions the C5 as a utility trike. The central basket doubles as a pet carrier. The rear basket expands cargo capacity. Riders must remain within the rated load limits.
Range is rated at up to 30 miles per charge. Real-world results depend on rider weight, terrain, and riding style. Charging time reaches roughly five hours from empty.
Braking uses cable-actuated systems. Performance matches the trike’s speed class. Riders seeking stronger modulation may consider aftermarket hydraulic upgrades through a local shop.
The C5 fits specific users:
• Short-distance commuters
• Elderly riders
• Riders with mobility or back concerns
• Pet owners
• Low-speed urban errands
Price lands near 900 dollars. Value depends on whether comfort and cargo outweigh speed expectations.
