What if I have trouble making turns and steering my Veloped?

The front climbing wheel offers two different settings with different characteristics:

  1. One wheel on the ground = Easy steering and climbing ability.
  2. Two wheels on the ground = Direction-steadiness (for running/very difficult terrain) and climbing ability.

Setting 'B' makes the Veloped difficult to turn.

If you prefer the easy steering mode, you can use the setting with only one wheel on the ground for all types of terrain.

Most certainly you have changed the setting and both front wheels are standing on the ground. Change the setting and make sure that the climbing wheel is set to easy steering mode.

It is vital that you do as follows to change to the easy steering mode:

  1. Turn the front wheel 180 degrees, so you have easier access to the adjustment handle.
  2. With your left hand, grab the left wheel and lift it off the ground.
  3. With your right hand, grab the red knob and pull it towards you.
  4. Push the 'triangular' adjustment arm as far to the bottom as possible. You should hear a 'clonk', metal against metal.
  5. Let go of the red knob and make sure that the adjustment arm is secured in its bottom position.
  6. There should be a gap of 1.5 cm between the first wheel (left) and the ground.

Here's a video showing the above:

If you do not lift the left wheel when changing the setting, the adjuster arm will not engage and both wheels remain on the ground.

  • Excellent Product, well thought out…

    This is an excellent product, once you have got over the price! There is not another like it on the market. The pneumatic tyres make a huge difference, especially on rough or non-existent roads. It's actually worth it. The brakes are not the best, th…

  • Great experience all the way around!…

    I've taken my trek miles on the desert and it'll go anywhere. The training is bringing me to the point where I can walk without it. Even when I had flats from goathead thorns--the bane of all OTR cyclists--they were easily fixed at a bike store. Trio…

  • Trionic Veloped…

    This all-terrain walker allows me to walk, which I hadn't thought possible for a long time. At the turn of the year, I tested it extensively on the North Sea island of Baltrum, and I'm thrilled. Whether it's a hike on the beach or a photographic bird…

  • Marvellous…

    I was bit sceptical about spending this much money but as they say you get what you pay for
    I had fallen over a couple of times with a small wheel trolley that had got stuck in gravel and jarred me off the handles
    Can't see that happening now I…

  • I have found the Trionic Walker excellent…

    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 h…
