Van Raam has two low entry bicycles in its range, a two-wheeler, and a three-wheeler. Both bicycles can be equipped with a backpedal brake. A coaster brake is a horizontal brake on the rear wheel of the bicycle. You operate it by pedaling backward with your pedals.
The Balance low through bicycle is a bicycle with a low entry, which has a specially designed frame that allows you to ride comfortably and also to reach the ground with both feet without getting off the bike. The Balance is supplied with hydraulic brakes. Througha small surcharge, a backpedal brake can be added here.
The Maxi Comfort is a variant of the traditional tricycle. This has a deep spacious entrance and a different seating position. You do not sit above the bottom bracket, but slightly behind it. This allows you to reach the ground with both feedsat all times and still have optimal knee movement. It is also possible to have a backpedal brake mounted on this low-entry bike.
These bicycles with a low step through already offer some advantages in themselves. But the coaster brake also provides advantages:
You can optionally equip your bike next to the backpedal brake also with the Van Raam pedal support system so you get an e-bike with low entry and backpedal brake. This pedal support is designed for and by Van Raam specifically for adapted bikes. The electric system, called Silent System, by Van Raam allows you to ride on a Van Raam tricycle, both forward and backward. On all bikes, the pedal assist has 3 positions and a starting aid. Â
