Traditional tricycles for orthopedic problems

Traditional tricycles have one wheel at the front and two wheels at the back with a seating position above the bottom bracket. This makes you pedal down and have a high seating position on the bike.

Tricycles with a seat

Our tricycles with a seat have a lower seating position with a forward pedaling motion. With this type of tricycle, the center of gravity is lower, which provides a more stable feeling.

Tricycles with two wheels at the front and one wheel at the back

Tricycles with two wheels at the front and one wheel at the back are popular with people who have difficulty estimatinghow wide the bike is. Because the widest part of the bike is in front, they can see more easily if the bike will fit between and past something.

Low step trough bike for orthopedic problems

If you have leg problems, a low step trough bike may be a good option. Van Raam has a low step trough bike with two or three wheels. You can easily get on these bikes without having to lift your leg high. The unique frame gives you a low seating position, allowing you to put both feet on the ground. This means you don't have to get off the saddle and you can still cycle with an optimally stretched leg. With both bikes you have a unique ergonomic seating position where wrists, shoulders and neck are relieved.
