Community — trikes for seniors

An open letter about the freedom, independence, and joy an electric trike can bring to your ageing parents. Learn about our supportive, no-pressure approach to helping them ride again.

The Huka Orthros Tandem Trike is more than just a trike, it’s a pathway to freedom, independence, and shared joy. From supporting couples living with dementia to creating special moments with grandchildren, the Orthros makes cycling safe, social, and accessible for every body.

The elephant in the room is always balance! Not all electric trikes are created equally. You have to consider the design as well as quality and the power and what that means for handling the trike.  

Having someone you love wanting to ride but unable to control the bike on their own should not mean they are left out. We have independent rider options, trikes for assisted rider and passenger bikes. An independent right might need a remote-control. An assisted rider can be helped with a rear steer, a side steering arm or by sharing the ride on a side-by-side. But if they can't pedal or won't pedal, how about a passenger bike option.
