1. Tricycle with low step trough

The Easy Rider tricycle has a unique frame which makes the center of gravity lower and the bike has a low step trough. This makes getting on and off easier. Also, the Easy Rider is safe and stable by the low center of gravity.

2. Modern design

The modern and aerodynamic design with hydroformed frame gives the Easy Rider its sporty appearance.  Almost the entire cable runs through the frame, which provides a sleek design, but also gives the cables extra protection. In addition, the Easy Rider has a chain hose instead of a chain case, this contributes to the modern design and is also easier to maintain.  

3. Easy to set up tricycle

Both the handlebars and the seat of the Easy Rider are easy to adjust to your needs. You can adjust the distance of the seat to the pedals/steering wheel and also the backrest can be changed. The handlebars can be adjusted to three points:

1. The angle of the stem
2. The angle of the handlebar
3. The height of the handlebars

By adjusting these points properly you optimize your riding comfort. Read in the article with video 'How to find the best posture on the Easy Rider tricycle', how to adjust the Easy Rider to your needs.
