Folding tricycle by Van Raam
A selection of Van Raam's tricycles are optionally available with a detachable frame. Some people also call this a folding tricycle. These tricycles are not literally foldable, but the frame can be divided. Read more about the Van Raam foldable tricycles here.
What is a folding tricycle?
A Van Raam foldable tricycle is a tricycle with a special frame adaptation. This adaptation makes it possible to divide the frame easily; you split the front part of the frame from the rear part. The part that can be detached consists of the front fork, the front wheel and the handlebar part.
The big advantage of a detachable frame is that the bicycle becomes more compact, which makes it easier to transport and to take with you in the car, for example. In addition, a foldable tricycle saves space, so it can be stored in your garage if you have less room.
