VELOPED SPORT REVIEW
In operation this machine is good and ideal for my purpose which is getting out on local woodland paths and tracks
However - I am not at all happy in other ways
- -
-
the brakes are difficult to manage - especially if I wish to have a short rest on the seat, when the brakes are particularly important
I find transportation very difficult. I don’t always have help available and the awkward shape makes it difficult to get in and out of my car and and yes I can take the wheels off, not always easy, particularly if they happen to be muddy or, as often happens, covered in ‘sheep-shit!
the fact that it cannot be locked in the closed position makes it very difficult when manoeuvering it in and out of the car as it tends to ease open - usually at a crucial point.
I think that is all. In summary good in operation but a few design faults in the preparation for transport.
But certainly not worth the very expensive price tag as it is not really a significant improvement on my old faithful walker which cost £250 and pops into the car no problem.

    I have Cerebellar Ataxia and I was struggling to keep my balance with a pole. I love walking in the woods and Riverside paths which I have been unable to do for the past 6 years. I have found that I walk more upright and I no longer fall if I get dis…

    I have had a Trionic Walker 12 for some years and cannot recommend the product and the service from this company too strongly.

    Veloped is the best thing that could have picked me up! It's quality of life! I can go away with it as usual, at my pace over hill and valley, as I am used to with my dogs. Thanks to the stability and security I have gained, I am relaxed on the walk,…

  • The best invention after the wheel…

    My husband had a very serious accident at work: he fell from a height of eight meters on concrete floor. He is still very young, and it would be a disaster to get him to walk with a typical walker. Firstly, it is unsafe and completely unergonomic, an…

    It’s so easy to use and great to walk with, it also keeps me upright. Apart from my husband it’s my best friend.

  • Field report after one year of use…

    The advert and description in the brochure is 100% true. Nothing is exaggerated. Disadvantageous or not optimal are the tyres. The air escapes too fast. A severely handicapped person will then usually find it very difficult, because a petrol station …

    I have found freedom with this wonderful Veloped walker. No longer trapped inside I can walk the uneven country lanes. So very grateful to your design team.…

  • I know I have gained a lifetime of freedom.…

    I am a twenty six year old woman, born with a mild spastic tetraparesis (a lighter form of cerebral palsy). It affects both my hands and legs: despite years of physiotherapy, I was only able to walk arm in arm with a carer. I found out about Trionic …
