1. What is a adapted child tricycle bike?

An adapted child tricycle bike is different from a tricycle on which children learn to cycle. Van Raam's adapted children's tricycles are specially designed for children with mobility limitations. For example, for children who have difficulty keeping their balance while cycling. In addition, it is also possible to make special adjustments to the bicycle, so that the bicycle is optimally suited to the user. For example, the pedals can be adjusted, or a back support can be placed on the bicycle.

2. Who are the adapted child tricycle bikes suitable for?

The adapted child tricycle bikes are suitable for children who cannot cycle on a regular two- or three-wheeler. Often these are children with a disability that need special adaptations to be able to cycle. Van Raam's bicycles are always customized for the users. This allows bicycles to be fully adapted to the needs of the user.
