Mini electric tricycle for kids from approx. 4 years
Midi electric tricycle for youth or smaller adults

Electricy tricycle Easy Rider Small Van Raam for Diego

User experience of the Easy Rider Small tricycle

Our dealer RRC RehaRad from Fraureuth has ensured that little Diego can once again cycle independently on his Easy Rider Small tricycle with electric pedal assistance.

After a long wait and negotiations with the insurance company, Diego was finally able to use his bike. Diego is now the proud owner of an Easy Rider Small with electric pedal assistance supplied by RRC RehaRad. The low seat height makes it possible for the wheelchair user to get on and off his tricycle independently. The pedal assistance is required for Diego and allows him to make trips on the bike together with his family.

After a long wait for the insurance reimbursement, RRC managed with great effort to optimise the bicycle in such a way that Diego was able to get on and off the bike completely on its own and continue cycling without danger. This was partly since Diego is such a go-getter who has done everything in his power to make this happen. After his mother did everything she could to get the bike reimbursed, Diego wanted nothing more than a radiant smile on his mother's face. After all the effort on all sides, this succeeded completely.

RRC RehaRad and Van Raam wishes Diego lots of fun on his Easy Rider Small tricycle with pedal assistance.
