There is a choice of three types of suspension for extra comfort and as a shock absorber for the frame. Which is suspension is chosen depends on the weight of the cyclist. There is the standard suspension (80 – 110 kg), the lighter suspension (up to 80 kg) and a heavier, more rigid suspension (over 110 kg). Many people find the Easy Rider easier to ride than a traditional tricycle. The handlebars of the bike are located in front of you so you can easily reach them. Due to the combination of the handlebars, pedal movement and suspension in the frame, you have less strain on your back, shoulders, neck and your wrists.
