Thuja tricycle 2 wheels in the front vanRaam

We are starting the new year with the wind at our bacs: in te latest issue of ElektroRad magazine (1/2026), our Thuja and Easy Rider Explore models have been put under the spotlight. Their suitability for everyday use and for longer distances was assessed. Read the results in this article.

They were not treated with kid gloves either, as the team also tested riding and turning with additional load. The result: both bikes performed strongly in practice and showed just how comfortable, intuitive and versatile modern three-wheel mobility can be.

Carefree travel in everyday use

The advantages of the Thuja are clear: the testers highlight the "relaxed seating position". And that is true: anyone who takes a seat immediately notices how the upright seating position relieves strain on the back and shoulders. In addition, the high seating position provides an excellent overview in traffic. Riding itself is also straightforward: according to ElektroRad, the Thuja scores highly with its "stepless shifting". This feature ensures smooth and comfortable cycling at different speeds.

This model is also particularly practical in everyday use. The editors describe the bike as "low-maintenance" and praise its "small turning circle", which is especially important in densely built-up residential areas or on narrow paths. Whether for doing the shopping, enjoying a relaxing ride after work or commuting to the office, the Thuja is a reliable, agile bike for anyone who values extra stability.

The ideal bike for longer tours and daily rides

The Easy Rider Explore Limited Edition is equally convincing: a model that impresses from the very first few metres with its exceptional ergonomics. The testers at ElektroRad describe the seating position as a "relaxed, comfortable seating position". This comfort is exactly what makes the Easy Rider Explore an ideal bike for longer tours and daily rides.

Another benefit mentioned in the article is the additional storage space offered by the Explore version. A water bottle, smartphone, shopping or jacket: everything has its place without compromising the cycling experience. This makes the model particularly suitable for active people looking for a comfortable, stable and practical tricycle that proves its worth both over longer distances and in the city.

Let's all cycle

Both test reports clearly show what we at vanRaam stand for: Let's all cycle! Bikes that support people, regardless of age of physical ability. They help people stay active, cycle independently and use their bike in different ways: in everyday life and on longer tours.

The Thuja impresses as an agile, intuitive e-bike with extra comfort. The Easy Rider Explore stands out as an ergonomic, versatile touring bike with smart storage space. Two models that clearly demonstrate in ElektroRad 1/2026 how much freedom modern tricycles can offer today.
