A Folding Tricycle Is Fun
To Ride And Easy To Store


folding tricycle A folding tricycle is one of the newer additions to the world of cycling. Almost anyone with the urge to ride can now find a suitable option. One of the issues with a standard trike is that they are rather large for storing and transport. Many seniors have downsized their housing which sometimes means less storage space.

A trike that folds addresses the storage Issue and opens the door to riding fun to even more people.

Tricycles all use a step through design making boarding much easier than a traditional bike. They also address the balance issue. The rider can go as slow as they like, without losing balance, and put both feet on the ground while seated.

You can choose between a single speed and a three speed and most come with a rear-mounted basket. They are easy to fold and light weight but you do need to check the manufacturers specs for rider size and weight limitations.

This same model is available as a folding electric tricycle for even more versatility.

There is even a folding recumbent tricycle that has the added benefit of folding for easy storage and transport. It has a 3-speed rear hub for easy shifting and a rear basket for storage.They are designed specifically for riders that no longer feel comfortable with a two wheeler.
