Description

Everyone loves to cycle, and with a sporty adaptive tricycle from Rifton, everyone can have a set of wheels giving them the freedom to take off and go.

There is hardly a more fun, motivating activity for improving leg strength, balance, fitness and endurance. In addition to the great physical benefits, trike riding encourages socialisation and the development of friendships. Clients with special needs zoom around right alongside their peers on a tricycle that is as cool and colourful as anything on the sidewalk.

 

 

 

 

Therapeutic benefits of tricycling:

  • Lower extremity strengthening
  • Reciprocal leg motion patterning
  • Balancing skills
  • Using visual, spatial perception for steering
  • Social interaction with peers and neighbours

Trike can be adapted to suit individual needs and physical abilities. No tolls required for adjustment.
