What was your concern with this review?
I am 68 years old and was a long-distance walker/hiker/backpacker until last Fall 2019, when on a 100 mile/161 kilometer hike, my right hip went out. Walking was painful and difficult. I could barely walk a block. Covid-19 came and treatments became limited or non-existent.
Longing to walk again in town and on mountain trails, I discovered the all-terrain Veloped Trek online. It arrived three weeks ago. It was simple to attach the wheels. Amazingly the Veloped Trek takes just enough pressure off my hip to begin walking again. I have been walking in town on a variety of surfaces: smooth sidewalks and uneven sidewalks; streets with cracks, bumps, and holes; gravel and small rocks; grass and dirt; and up and down curbs, and I have slowly increased distances. Today I walked 2 miles/3.2 kilometers. This is the perfect remedy for my hip. I especially like how it allows me to walk standing straight, not bent over, and the basket and gear are perfect for future picnics and further hikes.
Initially, two repairable problems presented themselves. I had two flat tires within the first week due to goathead stickers which are common here in the desert. This was easily fixed with the popular green goop used in bicycle tires. All four tires received the treatment and I have had no further flats. Also, I found the seat uncomfortable. This problem was resolved by partially inflating a long, rectangular, inflatable camping pillow/cushion, folding it into thirds and placing it in between the two seat layers. It is a soft seat now. It was an easy solution.
Overall, I am pleased with the Veloped Trek. It is sturdy and sporty-looking, and it has brought the joy of walking back into my life. Thanks to Oshin and Stefan who kindly assisted me as I made my purchase. The Veloped Trek is the best ever. Joyce, Alamogordo, New Mexico

I already had the previous model, which lasted more than 10 years and was used constantly.

Perfect - this has given me my life back and most of my independence. Cleo the cocker loves it as well cos we can go off-road walking in some pretty rough terrain with the larger wheels and pneumatic tyres. No more rattling and bouncing. Kerb and …
A joy to use…
I bought a walker last year (Not Trionic) in the hope that I could restore some of the strength in my legs. It could not cope with Birmingham pavements! Four small wheels do not cope with tree roots, potholes and significant camber. Then I found Trio…

I purchased the Veloped because I have significant issues with balance and instability in my knees due to arthritis that result in a high risk for falling. These issues had severely limited me from outdoor activities like going to the beach just enjo…

I am so pleased with my Walker. I have used it every single day as I cannot walk without its help! Before I struggled along with two sticks.
Me and Louis (my beautiful whippet) go out twice every day on our walks with your wonderful product.

I have found the Trionic Walker excellent, as I have numb fingers tips, I am able to collapse the handle down with the clip locks, which has helped in keeping my independence.
Well done, Lads. I hope you keep going strong with your Walkers.

I am very pleased with it.…
I recently bought a Walker 12er, and after using it for several weeks I can tell you that I am very pleased with it. The walker feels so much more stable than my previous one and is certainly more comfortable to use due to the large wheels with the i…

From the start dealing with this company has been really good, Stefan that means you as individual, but much more than that the ethos of the company not only shone out in the response to my first tentative enquiry but in the ongoing communication thr…
