Liberty Trike Referral Program Terms and Conditions
Effective Date: September 16, 2024
Advocate: A person who shares a referral code encouraging new customers to purchase a Liberty Trike.
Friend: An individual who receives a referral code from an Advocate and makes a qualifying purchase.
Eligibility:
- All customers with a Liberty Trike account are eligible to participate in the referral program, regardless of whether they currently own a Liberty Trike. As long as they have an account, they will have a referral promo code displayed on their account page.
- The program begins on September 16, 2024, and referrals made before this date are not eligible for rewards.
- The program is open to contiguous U.S. and Canadian residents only.
- If a participant earns $600 or more in rewards in a fiscal year, they will be required to submit a 1099 tax form (U.S. residents) or comply with local tax regulations (Canadian residents). Any customs or duties fees are the responsibility of the customer if located in Canada. Shipping costs for Canada delivery will also be the responsibility of the advocate.
Rewards:
- Between September 16, 2024, and December 31, 2024, Advocates who successfully refer two new Friends will receive one free Liberty Trike battery as a reward.
- Beginning January 1, 2025, Advocates will need to refer eight new Friends to qualify for a free battery.
- If an Advocate makes one referral in 2024, this referral will carry over into 2025 and count toward the total of eight required to earn a free battery.
- Advocates will receive one credit for every Liberty Trike or Like-New Liberty Trike purchased in a Friend's order. This means that if a Friend places an order with multiple trikes, the Advocate will receive multiple credits.
- Once an Advocate reaches the referral limit that qualifies them for a free battery, Liberty Trike will contact them via email to arrange the shipment.
- Credits will only be applied to the Advocate’s account after the Friend’s order has been fulfilled, meaning that their Liberty Trike has shipped. If a Friend returns their trike, the Advocate will still retain their credits.
Program Changes:
- Liberty Trike reserves the right to modify or terminate the referral program at any time. Changes may include, but are not limited to, the number of referrals required to earn a reward or other program benefits.

Limitations and Abuse:
- The referral program cannot be applied retroactively to any purchases made before the program start date (September 16, 2024).
- Only one referral code can be used per order. Using two referral codes on a single order is prohibited.
- Advocates cannot use their own referral code to place additional orders under their account. Any attempt to use personal codes for discounts on their own orders will result in disqualification from the program.
- Referrals must meet the following criteria: the new customer must enter the Advocate’s promo code when placing their order, and they must purchase at least one product designated for the referral program by Liberty Trike.
- Posting referral codes publicly on any social media platform, including the Official Liberty Trike Owners Group, or in any other group or platform where the code may be widely disseminated, is strictly prohibited. Advocates may share codes with friends, family, or in person, and they are encouraged to write referral codes on business cards for distribution. Emails and private posts to friends are allowed, but any violation of this rule will lead to dismissal from the program.
Disqualification and Good Standing:
- Participants must be in good standing with Liberty Trike. Actions such as issuing chargebacks, engaging in disrespectful conduct, or any other behavior that violates our Terms of Purchase will result in disqualification from the referral program.
- Liberty Trike reserves the right to disqualify participants from the program if fraudulent activity, abuse, or misuse of the referral program is detected.
Handling Phone and In-Store Orders:
- If Liberty Trike is made aware of a referral that took place via phone or in-store, we will investigate the situation. If validated, credits will be applied to the Advocate’s account on a case-by-case basis.
Other Restrictions:

Understanding Voltage Sag, Soft Resets, and Hard Resets: A Guide to Battery Management for Your Liberty Trike
By LibertyTrike Support June 20, 2023
What is Voltage Sag?
Voltage sag refers to the temporary drop in the voltage that a battery experiences when put under significant load. This is a universal occurrence with all batteries, including the one in your Liberty Trike. You may witness this when you use the throttle, especially during high-pressure situations like climbing a steep hill.
The battery's voltage level may drop, causing the battery indicator to display fewer bars. However, this is a momentary change. Once the load reduces, the voltage bounces back. Observing the behavior of your battery under these conditions can give you a true measure of its remaining charge.
Soft Resets and Hard Resets: What Are They?
Your Liberty Trike is equipped with a Battery Management System (BMS), which serves to protect the battery from over-discharging and prolong its life. When your battery gets close to being depleted, the BMS steps in and cuts off the power.
Turning the power off and then back on to squeeze out a bit more ride time is what we call a soft reset. It's like your trike is running on fumes at this stage, and while you can do this a few times to extend your ride a bit, bear in mind that your battery is nearly empty.
A hard reset, on the other hand, is a little more involved. This process includes unplugging the battery completely, plugging it back in, and turning it on. Hard resets should only be performed a couple of times and only when absolutely necessary. Repeatedly performing hard resets can cause the BMS to enter a protective state, which prevents further use and even charging of the battery. In such cases, you may have to get in touch with our service team to sort out the issue.
The Bottom Line
The Liberty Trike offers a balance of pleasure and performance, all while keeping safety as the top priority. Understanding your trike, especially its battery's behavior under different conditions, will not only enhance your riding experience but also help prolong the life of your battery.
Remember, it's crucial to know your limitations and adjust your expectations accordingly. Charge your battery properly before heading out for long rides and avoid pushing it to the limits. This way, you can keep your Liberty Trike running smoothly for years to come.
We hope this guide helped shed some light on battery management for your Liberty Trike. For more tips and tricks, stay tuned to our blog. Happy riding!

Riding Into the Future: The Genesis of Liberty Trike
In 2008, as gas prices soared and the economy faltered, I faced a pivotal moment while commuting from New Hope, Pennsylvania to Manhattan. The daily grind of a two-and-a-half-hour journey each way, away from my newborn son, weighed heavily on me. Then, an NPR story about a couple using electric bikes to save on commuting costs sparked a transformative idea. Inspired, I ventured into the world of electric bikes, importing a basic conversion kit and collaborating with a local bike shop to modify a Trek cruiser. This first ride wasn’t just exhilarating; it promised a newfound freedom from the constraints of traditional commuting.
This experience laid the foundation for my business, EBikeKit, and eventually led to the creation of something even more special: the Liberty Trike. Designed in collaboration with America’s oldest tricycle maker, Worksman Cycles, the Liberty Trike was conceived to provide stable, simple-to-operate mobility solutions, particularly for seniors. Today, the Liberty Trike represents not just independence, but the fulfillment of life's potential regardless of age or mobility challenges. It embodies my belief in the power of mobility and my commitment to enhancing the lives of our users, inspiring me daily to continue innovating for a future where every pedal forward means moving towards a better quality of life.
