What types of bicycles does Van Raam have for older men?
Van Raam has several types of bicycles that are suitable for both older men and women. These are the following types of bicycles:
Low step through bikes
Tricycles
Mobility scooter bike
Low step through bike for older men
The Balance two-wheeler is a low step-through bike by Van Raam. In addition to the low step-through, this bike has a unique frame. Thanks to this frame, you are not positioned above the bottom bracket but slightly behind it. This allows you to always keep both feet on the ground while still sitting on the saddle. You also make a forward pedaling movement, enabling you to generate a lot of power. The ergonomic sitting position reduces strain on your neck, shoulders, back, and wrists.
Bike with three wheels for old man
You opt for a tricycle if you need more balance when cycling and if you can no longer cycle on a bike with two wheels. Van Raam has various types of tricycles that allow you to cycle safely and get (back) on the road:
Traditional tricycle: This type of tricycle has a high seating position where you can get on and off easily.
Low step through tricycle: low entry and unique frame so you can always reach the ground with both feet.
Comfortable tricycle: with a seat, low entry and a forward pedaling movement, which takes away the unsafe and unstable feeling of a tricycle.
Mobility scooter bike for old man
Van Raam's electric mobility scooter bike Easy Go is specially designed for people with stability problems or varying energy levels, so it is very suitable for the elderly. The highly maneuverable and compact Easy Go can be used as a tricycle, tricycle with pedal support or as a mobility scooter. When riding in the mobility scooter setting, you can rest your feet on the foldable footplate.
Van Raam electric bike for an old man

What is the difference with a bicycle for younger people?
Van Raam looks at the height of the cyclist and listens to the needs and wishes. Van Raam's bikes are therefore not specifically designed for women or men, or for older or younger people. With a colour of your choice and various options and accessories, you can customise your own Van Raam bicycle for an older gentleman or woman.
