Customer experience Maxi tricycle – Linda Oremus

Due to major surgery on her back, Linda could no longer cycle on a traditional bike. Thanks to her Maxi tricycle, she got the joy of cycling back. Read Linda Oremus' story here.


From a traditional bicycle to a tricycle
"I am so happy with my Maxi tricycle. That was a little different two years ago. Unfortunately, I could no longer cycle on my traditional bicycle. Three years ago, I had to undergo major back surgery. Because of severe Scoliosis, my back was completely fixed with titanium rods. I have a beautifully straight back, but motorically I am still limited. My balance is very poor and the risk of falling is therefore very high."
"My physiotherapist also strongly advised me to start cycling on a tricycle so that I can exercise my leg muscles, maintain my balance and keep up my fitness."
Having the joy of cycling back
"My physiotherapist also strongly advised me to start cycling on a tricycle so that I can exercise my leg muscles, maintain my balance and keep up my fitness. At first, I found it quite confronting to start cycling on a tricycle. Purely because of the probing looks from fellow locals. I am forever grateful to my wonderful physiotherapist for persevering with the Maxi tricycle. She gave me back the joy of cycling. Now I cycle daily to the nicest and most beautiful hotspots in my area."
