What was your concern with this review?
For a long time, I have not been able to take part in the hikes through our city forest with my beloved Nordic Walking group. I am too insecure even with 2 sticks (artificial knee joint, severe osteoarthritis on the other knee, polyneuropathy! - I am 77 years old).
Now I have the Veloped-Tour with 14er tyres!
(So far, I do not get the whole 1,5-hour tour - but I am slowly getting closer).
It is a revelation - even with the greatest expectation, I could not have imagined it to be so well off-road and safe.
Paths full of roots both uphill and downhill are not a problem. I walk safely, upright and with a view of my surroundings, sometimes chatting with fellow travellers.
I am free again! (a very happy feeling).
Actually, my review would end here
- But I still list the "important" things for me:
• Weight - without wheels no problem, I can easily get it into the car by myself (my trunk is higher, ancient SUV!)
• Wheels - easy to remove and attach with almost just one movement
• Folding mechanism - easy to use - simple to store, fits in lifts, cars, buses, and trains
• Seat - comfortable, good even for longer breaks (with backrest easy to put up)
• Handle height - quickly adjustable with one movement (higher position is better when going downhill)
• Off-road/city mode can be adjusted quickly and easily - works great
• Basket - holds everything important (including medium-sized purchases – and with my Veloped I could even transport very heavy things, up to 150 kg).
"I love my rhino (after rhinoceros): head (wheel) down and run full power!"
And finally:
• Very, very friendly consultancy in German; by phone with Stefan Kindberg
• Delivery: Ordered Tuesday afternoon, arrived Friday noon
Do I need to mention that I will of course order future items again from TRIONIC without thinking twice?

I purchased the Veloped Trek 14er for my mother, who is 95, and recently moved to our rural home where there are no paved walkways. The Veloped had enabled her to manoeuvre over loose gravel and grass ground independently. I like everything about it;…

I am delighted with my new Veloped,the build quality is exceptional.
The large wheels are so beneficial on rough ground. Trionic's documentation and delivery is "First Class" It's been a pleasure doing business with them up there in Sweden.

The Veloped is a machine for living. I'm sure that nearly every Vellie owner will tell you that this beautiful creature gave them back a quality of life they thought they'd lost forever. It restores possibilities, confidence, freedom itself. It spark…
FANTASTIC!!…
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…
All round brilliant machine and super efficient people to advise.…
The Trionic 14er has made such a difference to my life. I pulled it out of the box and set off for a walk: down the slab path, and shallow steps, over the rough gravel drive, along the road and back to my door. The Trionic 14er is effortless to move.…
Very satisfied. It works really well!…
We bought the Veloped for our son. He has problems with balance and endurance as he walks. And we all like to be out in nature. With his new aid, he is much more independent, and much safer on the road. It works really well!…

The lock is strong and secure. It took me a little while to use it correctly as it has a very strong wire and it can be a bit stiff to manoeuvre in place. Now I am used to it and I appreciate how safe it keeps my Tourer.…
A great product!…
My Veloped was delivered very quickly, exactly as fast as advertised. Everything else is as well just as described. My multiple sclerosis limits my ability to walk, but my Veloped allows me to walk almost anywhere again. High sidewalks in the city or…
