The difference between my old rollator is amazing.
I am glad I took the plunge and paid the required to obtain the Tour.

Trionic Walker 14er is great for walking on…
Trionic Walker 14er is great for walking on rough and unpaved streets. With this, I have increased my speed and distance. I added a bicycle speedometer/odometer to monitor my speed and distance. A great improvement over my 8-inch indoor walker.

Finally, it is possible to be active in a relaxed way again!
At the age of 54, due to a sudden illness, I went in a very short time from being an active athlete to someone who only walks unsteadily, with small, wide-legged steps and in pain. This slow and forced walking also caused me severe Achilles tendinitis, creating a vicious circle.

Since I love to walk in nature and need a means of transport to go shopping without a car, my choice immediately fell on a Veloped. For me, it's the Porsche among rollators. It is really expensive for me, but the purchase was absolutely worth it! It was very helpful that everything was delivered pre-assembled and I only had to click on the wheels. The decision to choose size L, contrary to the advice received by e-mail, was the right one, as I can select between different height settings for my build with proportionally long legs, and I feel more flexible.
After only three days to get used to it (also to the looks of the people around me), I walked 6 km, even on gravel paths! And I was blissfully happy. Finally, I can look straight ahead again without having to watch the ground and all the unevenness with every step I take. If I stumble or bend, all it takes is a reflexive firm grip and I can keep going, without the moment of shock I always had before. And without the fear of falling. Apparently, the front wheel signals to my brain in good time what the ground is like - the wheels feel it for me - so that I have fewer problems with bumps in the first place.
In the first ten days, I walked 60 km - and I notice clearly how good the extra movement is for me. Walking in nature. The feet are relieved, the Achilles tendons heal.
For shopping, the basket is enough. I come home happy instead of completely exhausted and close to tears from the exertion of walking. Thanks to the training, my gait has meanwhile improved.
The Veloped is heavy and, with 14-inch wheels, stable enough not to tip over to the side with me (1.83 m tall, 89 kg) if I lose my balance. At the same time, it is incredibly manoeuvrable so that I can get through narrow supermarket aisles, although I use the folding function at the checkouts, otherwise, I get stuck. So far, however, I have always chosen one wheel up, i.e. the lighter setting.
The weight can sometimes be a problem of strength, as many of the pavements here are very narrow and sloping, and the Veloped then pulls to one side. The brakes are a bit difficult to adjust for me with weak hands and I sometimes need several attempts, they also seem a bit unstable in terms of the material, but everything worked very well for the first 2 months.
The only real criticism is the seat, which I find uncomfortable and expected more from (I don't know how this could be designed without losing flexibility). Before buying the Veloped, I tried it out on a stool at home to decide whether I needed the comfort seat - and didn't think about the fact that the Veloped has a hard bar that presses into the small of the back. The wide band in the seat also cuts painfully into my thighs, so I can only sit on the "edge of my bottom" instead of sitting down properly. I can also barely get between the handles. How people weighing up to 150 kg are supposed to sit on it is a mystery to me. Therefore, I took the piece of foam that protects the seat in the packaging, put it in a colour-matching bag, put it in the gap of the seat - and thus made it more comfortable for me. It's perfectly adequate for short breaks and the flexibility is maintained.
Thanks to my Veloped, I dare to plan trips again. It's a challenge on public transport, but it works. I have already completed the first train journey.

Engineered mobility solutions delivered
From my first online chat to taking my Veloped Trek outside the Team at Trionic have been excellent. The support and guidance given; the speed of responses; and the delivery of the Trek make me wish all Companies would take lessons!

The Veloped Trek is every bit as sturdy, well-engineered and built and suited to the terrain where I live (rural) as I had hoped. Thank you for providing the means by which I can stay mobile and (hopefully) keep my illness at bay.

The company rang me to discuss the best options for me, and I felt they were right. the Trionic Veloped is a great walker for me. It allows me to walk normally upright and quite fast.

There is simply nothing better than walking with this device.
It has given me the strength and self-confidence to walk off the paved roads.

Great for active exercise, but it keeps getting flats. Have had to replace three tubes because of shallow thorns. Now I am ordering solid 14-inch tires since I do not need the extra cushion of tube-type tires. I hope Trionic starts offering solid tires, it beats pushing it back with flat tires.

Personal aid and fast delivery. My best INVESTMENT
Praise to you who invented the Veloped!

I have COPD FEV1 23%, and thanks to the Veloped I can get out in the forest to pick mushrooms and blueberries. Walked several running tracks. Had sore muscles in the hips in the beginning. Because it's so easy to take long strides and keep the body straight. Hasn't happened in many years. Have taken bus rides, the Djurgården ferry, and walked around Skansen park. Easy to sit down for a small break. Now I can participate in most things.
The best walking aid!

The Veloped is a pleasant company outdoors, the walks are much easier and I can walk faster than with my regular walker, especially on uneven paths and roads.

Since the Veloped is somewhat wider than a regular walker, it is harder to get around in shops and restaurants.

Hello, Trionic!
Recommend this product review to a friend:
Back issues (spinal stenos) since many years back that strongly affected my musculoskeletal system, led to me finally making the decision to get a walker. Found Trionic's webpage online. Okay, this was certainly something I had to try!
Purchase made, and now I've had the so-called Veloped in 14 days. My walks shave gotten longer, and my total daily life is looking brighter and brighter.
The only downside to this arrangement will probably be the increased wear and tear of my shoe soles...
Kind regards,
LR
