What you get with the DWMEIGI MG708 Hera

The down tube sits 15 inches (38 cm) off the ground, which DWMEIGI says makes the Hera easy to get on, especially for older riders.

Steady on everyday streets

The 24 × 2.125-inch Kenda tires are there for stability, DWMEIGI says, and full-wrap fenders help keep the trike clean.

  1. Battery energy is computed from DWMEIGI's published 36 V and 13 Ah: 36 × 13 = 468 Wh.
  2. DWMEIGI's Hera page gives 40 miles with pedal assist on its spec strip and 35 miles in its product description; this page uses the spec strip's figure.
  3. DWMEIGI's MG708 electronics page lists five pedal-assist levels; this page uses the three on the Hera's product page.
  4. DWMEIGI's MG708 electronics page lists a 36 V, 10.4 Ah (374.4 Wh) pack; this page uses the 36 V, 13 Ah on the Hera's product page.

  6. DWMEIGI's product page gives 4 to 5 hours to charge; its MG708 user manual says about 4 to 6 hours, which this page uses.
  7. Top speed and both ranges are DWMEIGI's published figures for this model.
  8. 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 Hera 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 Hera's figures, 350 W and 15 mph, are under both of the definition's limits.

From DWMEIGI's MG708 user manual: “Don’t let children under the age of 18 ride the bike.”

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 Hera go?

DWMEIGI rates the MG708 Hera at 15 mph, and its display offers three pedal-assist levels.

How far can the Hera go on a charge?

DWMEIGI's range rating: 40 miles with pedal assist and 25 on the throttle alone, from a 36 V, 13 Ah battery.

Can the Hera go uphill?

DWMEIGI's torque rating: 40 N·m from the 350 W front hub. If your streets are steep every day, the DWMEIGI MG1703 Zeus's 750 W hub makes 80 N·m.

Are electric tricycles safe for seniors?

At 15 mph, the Hera's top speed is a calm one. 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 Hera?

300 lb, in the words of DWMEIGI's MG708 user manual: “Maximum load capacity = 300lbs.” Call (213) 444-4020 and we'll go through the higher-rated trikes we sell with you.

Does the Hera fold?

No. For a trike that folds, the Addmotor Citytan M-315 costs less, and DWMEIGI's two folding trikes are the MG2302 Silverado Urban and the MG2301 Silverado HD.

Does the Hera have a reverse gear?

No. For a reverse gear from DWMEIGI, look at the MG2302 Silverado Urban, the MG2303 Blazer or the MG2301 Silverado HD.

Does the Hera come fully assembled?

No. The MG708 manual lists the frame in two sections, the wheels, the battery, three fenders, the saddle and the rear rack to put together. 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 Hera cost?

$1,499 with free shipping to the lower 48, or 12 monthly payments of $135.30 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 Hera at 350 W and 15 mph, under both federal low-speed e-bike figures. 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 Hera

The backrest saddle is on DWMEIGI's accessory list for the Hera, and the waterproof bag suits its rear basket.
