This is a well-made product which, unfortunately, has two major flaws:
1. It is not possible to sit comfortably on the seat because the horizontal bar does not allow me to sit far enough back. This renders the seat useless. I discussed this with the inventor and suggested that the horizontal bar should be moved further forward. He said, for some reason that this was impossible. This is nonsense and I have designed and made my own modification which moves the bar forward by about 5 inches. That works perfectly well and means the seat is usable.
2. The twin front wheels are a really bad idea because they make it very difficult to steer. So much so that, when trying to get through doorways etc, I have had to lift the front. I shall be investigating how to get rid of one of the wheels in order to make it much more manageable.

  • Very good choice for a disabled girl, almost 9 years old...!…

    We bought the Trionic Veloped to our daughter. She is nine years old this summer so Veloped is not really suited for her size yet. But, we still think it works very well in terrain and that was exactly what we were searching, for such a long time!

  • Great…

    The Veloped Sport met my expectations. The braking system is almost perfect; I wish there was a way to hold the level of braking when traversing steep hills.…

  • The best invention after the wheel…

    My husband had a very serious accident at work: he fell from a height of eight meters on concrete floor. He is still very young, and it would be a disaster to get him to walk with a typical walker. Firstly, it is unsafe and completely unergonomic, an…

  • Walker…

    I love my new walker. It is great going over grassy and rocky areas.
    The only issue that I have is when I put it into the back of my Subaru Impreza. It is somewhat hard to put it in and lay it down. Any suggestions?…

  • I’m thrilled with this!…

    Transformed my life! Yes, I did get out before but was very unsteady and was always concerned that I might need to sit down and there was nowhere to sit (unfortunately I can’t sit on the ground!). Now I no longer have these concerns! My confidence ha…

  • Best friend…

    I miss my super strong legs, being able to walk many kilometers in forest terrain without getting tired. Being able to go for long, long walks with my dog. Being able to walk with long strides and enjoy nature.
    I will never walk that fast again, but…

  • Great for all terrains…

    I have used Veloped (even gave it a personal name) on trails of various difficulties, and also, on different types of payment. The 14 inch wheels have no problems navigating larger rocks on trails or curbs in the city. I especially liked the front tw…

  • I have just taken delivery of the Walker & Veloped…

    Amazing machines, both of them, and I have no doubt whatsoever that they will make a big difference to me.

    The quality of the construction is really excellent, and that was apparent the moment I opened the boxes. Beautifully made, these two machi…

  • I'm glad I discovered the Veloped Sport.…

    I'm glad I discovered the Veloped Sport. I knew I was going to love it the first 6 meters I tried it. We have a front drive of gravel. My older traditional rollator just could not be used in the loose gravel, the Veloped was no problem.

    I original…
