What was your concern with this review?
I have a rare neurological condition Hereditary Spastic Paresis which causes muscle stiffness, balance issues, and consequently mobility problems. I have used walking poles for the last couple of years but when I walk I no longer enjoy my surroundings as I am so busy looking at the ground and concentrating so I don't fall. I thought long and hard about buying a walker as it felt like giving in but I was equally fed up of hanging off my husband or treating a walk like a battle to stay upright rather than an enjoyable experience. After much research, I came across the Veloped and ordered it in July.
I can honestly say it has changed my life, I am learning to enjoy my walks and not stare at the ground constantly. I am getting used to steering it, I prefer 2 wheels down as it feels more stable and there is a definite knack to turning it in that mode, but the more I use it the better I get.
I am now walking every day and on the 8th of Oct, I start a 100-mile walking challenge to be completed in 4 weeks for MND research. I need to walk 3.2 miles every day over that period to reach my target which will be hard, I would never have considered this without my Veloped. I seriously cannot recommend the Veloped enough, I've got all the gadgets for it and love it. It has definitely been a big investment but worth every penny, life-changing in such a good way.

The Veloped allows me to go out again.
It is stable and has maximum off-road mobility. Very important for me is the possibility to rest now and then.
I would definitely buy it again.
The cane holder is very practical.…
Very pleased with my spare parts!…
We installed the brake cable to my rollator. It was quick
and easy, as it fit perfectly. I would definitely recommend it again if needed.
At the same time, I would like to thank Trionic for the excellent products,
from the rollator itself to the…

I am very pleased with the Veloped Sport; it has helped my walking and my back a lot. It is heavier than I had expected especially pushing it uphill. However, at 90, it has given me a new lease of life.…

I love the fact that I can walk in the countryside again and not be fazed by rough terrains like large gravel, grass paths and uneven surfaces. It means I can get away from cars and houses and surround myself with greenery. This lifts my spirits and …
