Why is one front wheel on the Veloped higher than the other?

One of the front wheels on the Veloped is lifted when it is in city mode. An adjustment handle on the front wheel (between the wheels) can be shifted between two settings.

Upper position:
Offers easy turning with retained climbing capacity.

When the wheel is lifted, the lever is in the lower position making one of the wheels higher than the other. It still offers good climbing capability where it can easily overcome an obstacle. In the lifted mode, it is easy to steer. 

Lower position:
Offers increased climbing capacity, suspension on uneven surfaces and higher directional stability. The downside is that it might be harder to steer the Veloped, especially evident on the tarmac.

  • Works wonderfully…

    I am writing this review for my 95-year-old mother.
    The Walker has significantly increased her mobility. Previously, she had considerable problems with the old cobblestones and unpaved paths in Lübeck. Now with her Walker, she can visit us again. T…

  • Very good rollator…

    Has proven itself in many situations on a wide variety of surfaces.
    The large pneumatic tyres give a good driving experience and it is comfortable for the hands.
    The only thing we would still miss is a lock when you fold the rollator and want to st…

  • 2000 km in 16 months with the Walker 14er

    From August 2021 to the end of 2022, I covered just over 2000 km on dirt tracks, country, and forest trails with the Walker 14er, of which just over 1600 km in 2022 alone. My wife has always accompanied me. Apart from puncturing the front wheels twic…

  • Upsala…

    I can finally walk upright with my new walker and do not have to look at the ground to avoid potholes and the like. My young grandchildren call to each other to be quick to catch up with Oma. At 84 years old I find it a bit heavy to get into my boot,…

  • Life changing purchase and brilliant company…

    From start to finish, the whole process of buying a Trionic 14er W was easy. The walker is exceptional and has changed my life, enabling me to access terrain previously out of my range. The customer service was also exceptional and customer-friendly.…

  • Excellent piece of kit…

    I bought the Walker to compliment the Veloped I already own. I use the veloped for fishing and shooting and "rough" walking. The Walker on the other hand I'm using on tarmac and designated walk ways. I find the Walker very stable and with 14" whee…

  • Good Chunky Lock…

    Bought this to chain up the walker on those occasions when I can't get the walker into a cafe or shop.
    Solid construction and so far has proved secure for my needs.…
