Van Raam produces bicycles for all ages with specific adjustments for every disability. There are bicycles with which children with a disability can cycle themselves and special bicycles with which they can cycle together. There are also bicycles with which children with a disability can be transported. At Van Raam we produce different types of tricycles for young and old, but also tandems, wheelchair bikes, double rider cycles and transport bikes. Children can have various physical and mental disabilities at a very young age. In this article we tell more about bikes for children with a disability.
Thanks to the many options and accessories available at Van Raam and through innovative adjustments, we produce unique tricycles that are suitable for every child.

In addition to the single-person bicycles for children, Van Raam also offers bicycles in which, for example, a parent, another family member or a therapist can cycle with the child. Our Kivo Tandem and Kivo Plus three-wheel tandem, as well as the OPair wheelchair bike or the Fun2Go double rider cycle are suitable for this. Read more about these bikes below.
The Kivo is a child-parent tandem with a grown-up sitting behind and a child sitting in front. The child can get a good view of the environment. The rider sitting behind can always keep a good watch on the child. The Kivo has a low step through and therefore, is easier to use. You can order the Kivo tandem with various options. Normally the Kivo has 8 gears and a freewheel switch. You can use the switchable freewheel to determine with 3 positions whether and how the passenger pedals.
These are the three positions:
This is a function with a continuous movement of the pedal and the co-driver must pedal along.
The pedals of the co-driver move independently of the pedals of the main driver. The pedals run freely and the co-driver cannot cycle.
In this position, the pedals of the co-driver move independently of the pedals of the main driver. The co-driver can cycle along.
The Kivo Plus is a child-parent tricycle tandem with a grown-up sitting behind and a child sitting in front. The Kivo Plus has a low step through and therefore, is easier to use. Equipped with two rear wheels instead of one, the Kivo Plus trike provides more stability. Just like the Kivo, the Kivo Plus has standard 8 gears and a freewheel switch.
With the Fun2Go double rider cycle, two people can sit next to each other and cycle instead of sitting behind each other. One person steers, both can pedal. The riders can get on without having to step through and the seats can be easily adjusted to the required distance with a lever. The two persons have a good view and can communicate well with each other due to the seats being next to each other. There is an optional electric engine to give power assist to help you cycle under any circumstances easily.
The OPair is a wheelchair bike with which you can transport a wheelchair user. A seat for the wheelchair user/passenger is affixed to the front of the bike. From the back, the cyclist has an overview of the road and view on the passenger. On the split frame version, the front part is easy to remove from the cycling component, which enables use as a wheelchair on location. The slightly angled front wheels provide increased driving comfort and stability.
The VeloPlus wheelchair transport bike is designed for transporting people, who can remain seated in their own wheelchair, by cycle. The passenger is not required to be transferred between the wheelchair and the cycle. The co-rider can be wheeled on to the plateau of the cycle easily without having to be lifted. The tilted ramp makes it easy to roll the wheelchair on to the wheel-chair bike and fasten it properly with the wheelchair lock.
In addition to bicycles for children with disabilities, Van Raam also offers bicycles for adults with disabilities. Read more about these bicycles in the article: 'Cycling with a disability'.
