  1. DWMEIGI gives this pack 873.6 Wh on its MG1703 electronics page (48 V × 18.2 Ah) and 840 Wh on the battery's own listing; this page uses 874 Wh.
  2. DWMEIGI's Zeus FAQ also gives a maximum weight of 400 lb; this page uses the 330 lb in the Zeus's user manual and spec strip.
  3. DWMEIGI's MG1703 electronics page lists a 25 A controller; this row uses the 22 A on the Zeus's product page.
  4. DWMEIGI's product page gives 4 to 5 hours to charge; its MG1703 user manual says about 4 to 6 hours, which this page uses.
  5. Top speed and both ranges are DWMEIGI's published figures for this model.
  6. DWMEIGI's product pages and user manual list a 1-year warranty; its warranty policy (dwmeigi.com/pages/warranty-policy) lists 2 years on the frame and 1 year, limited, on other parts, and excludes damage caused by improper assembly (read September 17 and 18, 2026). Where DWMEIGI's warranty applies, its terms govern.

Riding the Zeus legally

“a two- or three-wheeled vehicle with fully operable pedals and an electric motor of less than 750 watts (1 h.p.), whose maximum speed on a paved level surface, when powered solely by such a motor while ridden by an operator who weighs 170 pounds, is less than 20 mph”

Federal definition of a low-speed electric bicycle, 15 U.S.C. § 2085(b)

The Zeus's figures, 750 W and 20 mph, are at or above the definition's limits.

From DWMEIGI's MG1703 user manual: “Don’t let children under the age of 18 ride the bike.”

For a trike under both federal figures, the DWMEIGI MG708 Hera is rated 350 W and 15 mph, on 24-inch tires rather than fat ones.

Your state and city decide where you may ride and whether you need a license, registration or a minimum age; electric bike laws by state lists each state's rules.

Frequently asked questions

How fast does the Zeus go?

DWMEIGI rates the MG1703 Zeus at 20 mph from its 750 W Bafang hub.

How far can the Zeus go on a charge?

DWMEIGI's range rating: 60 miles with pedal assist and 45 on the throttle alone, from an 874 Wh pack.

Can the Zeus go uphill?

DWMEIGI's torque rating: 80 N·m from the 750 W Bafang hub, twice the Hera's 40 N·m.

Are electric tricycles safe for seniors?

You step through the Zeus's frame instead of over a bar; for a trike that tops out at 15 mph, see the MG708 Hera. It stands on its three wheels at a stop, and a parking brake holds it while you get on or off. Whether a trike suits you is a question for your doctor or a physical therapist; this answer describes the machine and is not medical advice.

What is the weight limit of the Zeus?

330 lb, in the words of DWMEIGI's MG1703 user manual: “Maximum load capacity = 330lbs.” Call (213) 444-4020 and we'll go through the higher-rated trikes we sell with you.

Does the Zeus fold?

No. For big tires on a frame that folds, DWMEIGI makes the MG2301 Silverado HD.

Does the Zeus have a reverse gear?

No. Of DWMEIGI's fat-tire trikes, the MG2301 Silverado HD has the reverse gear.

Does the Zeus come fully assembled?

No. DWMEIGI's FAQ says the Zeus ships in two boxes with a tool kit and its user manual, and the manual's parts list includes front and rear racks with a bag for each. In its warranty policy, DWMEIGI “recommends professional assembly of our e-bikes”. Questions about assembly before you order? Call (213) 444-4020.

How much does the Zeus cost?

$1,999 with free shipping to the lower 48, or 12 monthly payments of $180.43 at 15% APR with Shop Pay.

Rates from 0-36% APR. Payment options through Shop Pay Installments are subject to an eligibility check and are provided by these lending partners: affirm.com/lenders. Options depend on your purchase amount, and a down payment may be required. State notices to consumers: affirm.com/licenses.

Are electric tricycles street legal, and do you need a license?

DWMEIGI rates the Zeus at 750 W and 20 mph. Your state and city decide where you may ride and whether you need a license, registration or a minimum age; electric bike laws by state lists each state's rules.

Add-ons for the Zeus

DWMEIGI designed the charger for the Zeus and lists the large front basket for it and the backrest saddle among its accessories; the Tannus insert fits its 20 × 4.0-inch tires.
