Maja and Ben from the Scouters test team tested our Fun2Go 1 side by side bike. Scouters is an independent Dutch organization who provides information and advice about innovative tools for and by people who want to move better, their carers and professionals. Watch these results in the test video below (Dutch).
An expert, independent commission in Norway has tested different types of special needs bicycles in connection with a multi-year public procurement. Several aspects were important for this tender. These were rated with a specific weighting coefficient. In the tandem category, Van Raam's bicycles were assessed as best in terms of overall quality. For both the three-wheel tandems where one rider sits behind the other as well as the side-by-side tandems, the quality of Van Raam tandems was far superior to other bikes in the test.
An expert, independent commission in Norway has tested different types of special needs bicycles in connection with a multi-year public procurement. Several aspects were important for this tender. These were rated with a specific weighting coefficient. One of the categories focused on side-by-side tandems, also known as side-by-side three-wheel tandems.
For many years now Van Raam is specialized in special need bikes and one of these bikes is the VeloPlus wheelchairbike. The Van Raam wheel-chair bikes are used to enable a wheelchair dependent person to travel by cycle. Van Raam has two models of wheel-chair bikes: the VeloPlus wheelchair transport bike and the OPair wheel-chair bike.
Next to special needs bicycles for one person, Van Raam manufactures bicycles for multiple people, like wheelchair bikes and tandems. In this article you will learn more about Van Raam’s tandems: the two wheel tandem Twinny, three wheel tandem Twinny Plus, parent-child tandems Kivo and Kivo Plus and the side-by-side tandem Fun2Go + the Funtrain double rider cycle trailer.
We received a nice message from the USA about Tom and Jill Matthew and our VeloPlus wheelchair bike.
From Annie Tredray, a physiotherapist in Canada, we received a very nice mail with a beautiful picture of the Fun2Go Tandem Companion Cycle with the FunTrain trailer in Canada.
Van Raam is active on various social media such as Twitter, Facebook, Youtube en Instagram. Through social media we often receive nice pictures and videos from users of our specialised bikes. Recently we found on social media a nice music video from the British band Hot Soles. In the music video Glorious Blunder, the two men from Sheffield from Hot Soles, enjoy themselves on our Fun2Go tandem companion cycle. Wacht below the official video Hot Soles – Glorious Blunder.
In the Netherlands, but also globally, we see a greater need to do something active together with people in wheelchairs or people with disabilities.
Our special needs bikes regularly attract the attention of well-known Dutch and television programs.
