The Van Raam Easy Sport is a recumbent trike for adults. Read in this article the 7 most frequently asked questions about the Easy Sport.
The Easy Sport is a recumbent trike for adults. The tricycle has an ergonomically adjustable seat with back support, which can be used for both sporting and recreational cycling. Thanks to the understeer, your back, neck, shoulders and wrists are under less stress. In addition, the Easy Sport is adjustable in length, for an ideal cycling position, adapted to your height. The suspension in the frame gives extra comfort while cycling.
The Easy Sport is suitable for people who can no longer cycle on a regular bike, because of balance problems for example. The recumbent tricycle is ideal for sporty people who also like comfort.
The Easy Sport is different from a traditional tricycle. Because of its unique frame, the recumbent trike has a low entry level. In addition, on the Easy Sport you pedal forwards, which allows you to exert more force with your legs than when you sit above the crankshaft and pedal downwards. The handlebars of the Easy Sport are also different from traditional tricycles. The handlebars of the recumbent trike are positioned under the saddle. You can easily hold the understeer with relaxed arms. See all the unique riding characteristics of the Easy Sport in the article and video 'Recumbent bike Easy Sport unique riding characteristics'.
