A Dream Machine

What was your concern with this review?

I spent many, many hours at the Trionic facebook group, asking questions, reading all member comments about every aspect of the Veloped. I placed my order for the 12" Tour version based on those glowing and also quite candid reviews. As it transpired, every good thing posted about the Veloped turned out to be true. This rollator was easy to assemble, and i am tragically bad at assembling, it is solid, and stylish, balances beautifully over (for me) tricky terrain. It has made my fuller outdoor life possible. I can't recommend it more highly, even at the breathtaking Australian price of $3000. I would also like to mention the superb after-sales service of the Aussie Trionic rep David Zohs. I emailed the dumbest questions ( where is the lock I ordered? Oh, there it is, factory attached!). David followed up by phone immediately, twice. Such impressive support means a lot when you live in my far-away country. Six stars to Trionic support.

For anyone reading this review, I suggest that you build up your use of the Veli more slowly than I did. I raced around for two hours on the first day, and my underused shoulder and leg muscles complained bitterly the next. I needed a more sensible, realistic approach, more like 15 minutes a day for two weeks to achieve some appropriate fitness to be comfortable.

Complaints: None. If I had any suggestion, it would be a gear change option to slow down the Veli on hills. The brakes work brilliantly, but going downhill, it would be nice to have gear traction.

    The Veloped Sport. I've had mine for a month now and am thrilled with it! I was a keen walker before I broke my pelvis and ended up with permanent nerve damage in my leg. I have been working to get as mobile as possible. Although I can walk with one …

  • New Lease of Outdoor Active Life…

    This walker is everything I hopped it would be. It makes access to rough uneven terrain easy because of the inflatable tyres.. For me with arthritic shoulders I find it makes walking using this walker virtually pain free. It attracts interest from ot…

    This is the best walker I've owned. It not only has a sleek swedish design,the aluminum frame is light weight, easy to fold up so it can be transported in a car, by bus or train.
    It has the best brakes available--most walkers/rollators use a piec…

  • Really pleased I bought this…

    Having been using a wheeled walker for six months or so, I was unhappy that its small wheels were only useable on smooth surfaces.
    I bought the Walker 14er as it was meant to be good at handling rougher terrain and steps. I can confirm that it does …

  • Excellent piece of kit…

    I bought the Walker to compliment the Veloped I already own. I use the veloped for fishing and shooting and "rough" walking. The Walker on the other hand I'm using on tarmac and designated walk ways. I find the Walker very stable and with 14" whee…

  • 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…
