What was your concern with this review?
I emailed Stefan in Sweden to ask various questions about the Veloped. He phoned me back and he couldn't have been more helpful. He was able to match the price of a UK supplier, who offered the Veloped VAT free for people with a registered disability such as me. I was initially concerned that I would not be able to try out the Veloped before I made a final decision to purchase, but Stefan assured me that I could trial the Veloped for one day out of doors, and if not happy I could return it free of charge.
After agreeing the price, I placed an order for a Veloped Sport, it was delivered within 3 days and I unpacked and assembled it in less than half an hour. I used it the next day and knew at once that I would keep it.
It is a wonderfully innovative piece of equipment, very well engineered, very strong and not too heavy. It folds up and fits in the car boot when the wheels are removed (which takes only a few seconds). I have already done several walks of around 3 miles each over rough ground, fields, tracks and of course roads and pavements. The Veloped performs superbly in all conditions. I have a balance problem, but the Veloped allows me to walk in a straight line and I am able to look around at the scenery once more without stumbling or falling down.
It is so easy to use, already whilst out walking I sometimes forget that I am using the Veloped. It is such a brilliant feeling and I know that I can now start to plan some great walks around my local area of the Peak District of Derbyshire and further afield.
I would certainly recommend this machine to anyone with a walking difficulty and also recommend going straight to Stefan to make your enquiries, he is so helpful and efficient.

I am a twenty six year old woman, born with a mild spastic tetraparesis (a lighter form of cerebral palsy). It affects both my hands and legs: despite years of physiotherapy, I was only able to walk arm in arm with a carer. I found out about Trionic …
PERFECT…
Perfect, because you can walk upright and avoid walking with a bent back. The back improves the more you walk.
A tip: When folding the Veloped, there should be a latch that keeps the frame locked in a folded state.

My wife's Trionic, as I call it, has exceeded our expectations and has given my wife freedom to roam and has coped with rough and uneven ground as though it was flat! Plus whenever she wants to rest, finds the seat comfortable.

I got my 14 inch Sport Veloped in September. It has been a massive improvement in my life. I am able to enjoy the wonderful countryside I live in. I am waiting to have my knees replaced. A superb buy!…

With the Veloped, I have gained in Life-quality. It allows me more freedom of movement without joint pain and gives me much more confidence than a conventional walker. I can walk in the woods again, go to the beach and finally go again with my feet i…
