The Compact is a tricycle from vanRaam. The tricycle is designed for small adults and large children. Discover in this article the 6 unique riding characteristics of the Compact.
1. Optimal riding comfort
The vanRaam Compact has an optimal riding comfort thanks to the suspension in the seat and the forward pedaling motion. The forward pedal motion allows you to apply more force while cycling.
2. Small turning radius
The turning radius of the Compact is only 207 cm. The turning radius of the larger variant tricycle, the Easy Rider, for example, is 370 cm. See the turning radius of the Compact in the article with video '5 differences between the Easy Rider and Compact'. In this article you can read right away the main differences between the tricycles.
3. Stable road handling
The center of gravity of the Compact is lower than with traditional tricycles. This gives you a low sitting position and the tricycle has a stable road handling. This ensures a safe feeling while cycling.
4. Very compact
The compact size of the Compact makes the tricycle very maneuverable. The bike fits through a normal doorway and into an elevator. This makes the bike easy to take and store.
5. Low entry
Because of the unique frame of the vanRaam Compact, the tricycle has a low entry level. This makes it easy to get on and off the bike. By fixating the parking brake, which is standard on the tricycle, you prevent the bike from rolling away.
6. Cycles easier than traditional tricycle
The transition from a two-wheeler to a tricycle can sometimes be difficult. Cycling on the Compact is actually very easy compared to traditional tricycles. This is because the center of gravity of the bike is lower than traditional tricycles. This increases stability and makes it easier to stay balanced. Riders sit higher off the ground on a traditional tricycle, which can lead to less control over the bike and less confidence on the part of the rider.
Benefits of the Compact
In addition to these unique driving characteristics, the Compact possesses more benefits:
- Less strain on back and neck and shoulders and wrists
- Pedal support possible (smart e-bike)
- In depth adjustable comfortable seat
- Cables run through the frame and are therefore well protected
