    What is the difference between a tricycle and a bike with side wheels?

    When you aren’t able or don't dare to cycle on a standard bike with two wheels due to balance problems or the fear of falling, there are several options to ensure that you keep your mobility and get enough physical activity. For example, there is the possibility to place side wheels for adults on your two-wheel bike or you can check the possibilities of adaptive bikes (of course we would like to help you). In this article we explain briefly what the differences are between a tricycle and adult side wheels.

Various machines are used to process the many pipes and a welding robot connects all parts together. It is quite a job to move all these machines to our new premises.
