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.

Buying a cargo bike is a large investment, but this case study shows you how one of our customer feels about her very big but wonderfully celebrated decision. From a casual rider, Alicia is now a cargo-bike convert. She has a lot of options to make her life easier and her child just loves being on the back. Cargo bikes can change your life. They give people sustainable transport options, are low-cost over the life of the bike and improve physical and mental well-being, while setting excellent role-model examples to children everywhere.

Many people talk about the health benefits of riding bikes. We are not talking cyclists in lycra, we are talking about every day people getting out and enjoying the open air and making those benefits stretch from the physical to the mental, to the psycho-social. Everyone can get something from being outdoors, seeing their neighbourhood, engaging in their community and sharing the experience with friends and family. No one should be isolated and prevented from sharing this opportunity.

Many riders are unable to ride a standard 2-wheeled bike. We can modify bikes and trikes and we can add supports and change the pedalling action. If you need straps or a harness to extend the supports or require adaptations to operate with one hand or while wearing prosthetic limbs, we can provide guidance. Ask us how as we are a specialist provider of adaptive bikes and trikes.
