Veloped - An Absolute Necessity!

Rating:

What was your concern with this review?

In 2011, I was cycling to the bus station to take a bus into Manchester where I worked. I was hit by a car driven by a 74-year-old man who wasn’t looking for a cyclist (I had right of way!) and he struck me as he turned in front of me. My head struck his windscreen and I was thrown over his car. Luckily it happened in front of a CCTV camera because he would have lied to the police and blamed me. I was badly injured and spent 8 months in two hospitals and a rehabilitation centre.

I could not go back to work and cannot work again as a result of my injuries. A serious head injury meant that my walking was very unsteady and still is. It wasn’t until I found the Veloped online and bought one (the Veloped Tour, I think), that I was able to go out again.

By this time, I had a dog and we began to go out together, once a day, in the mornings, for a walk. I live in the Peak District National Park where there are plenty of hills and slopes. There are no pavements for me to use but I have used the Veloped where I’ve had to go up and down pavements. It is so easy to use when there is no dropped kerb, thanks to the patented double wheel at the front. It certainly makes life easy for me.

I love using my Veloped because it makes walking much easier for me. It has plenty of space for me to carry things like a box of tissues for myself, a water bottle for my dog, binoculars for cuckoo and other bird-spotting, a mosquito net for help with midges, waterproof gloves, etc. I’ve bought rear lights for the Veloped so that I can be seen if a car approaches. I have my front light which lets me be seen by cyclists too. Having a Veloped to use really makes living life better. I would recommend having a Veloped to anyone who needs it.

    The Veloped is actually intended for my wife, but occasionally I use it too (92). Our satisfaction is probably best expressed by the fact that we will probably buy another one.

  • “To Boldly Go Where No Rollator Has Gone Before”…

    I bought a Veloped Tour (with 12-inch wheels) online from Trionic in May 2020 for my 86-year-old father. To everyone’s delight, my father was immediately able to walk much faster, much further, and much more easily than before.

    I have used the Tour now for a couple of weeks. Am absolutely amazed at the difference it makes to walking. Have been using a standard 4-wheel walker and walking was very limited. After about a hundred yards or so the pain in my back was such that I …
