Here are answers to some of the most frequently asked question about this Tricycle:
-
Do Both Riders Have to Pedal?
No! It features two independent power trains. In other words, each rider can power the trike or they can do so together. As long as one person pedals, the tricycle is driven in the same way as on single seat adult trikes. This feature is particularly important in a case where one rider is physically unable to actively pedal. -
Do both cranks (pedals) turn simultaneously (in cadence) as is the case with a tandem bicycle?
Absolutely not. Each rider pedals at their own rate. When you are not pedaling on your side, your pedals do not turn. Pedal when you want at your own pace -
How Do You Stop a “Dual Team” Trike?
This trike has two independent brakes for sure, safe stops. Either rider can stop the cycle by simply back-pedaling. This applies the coaster brake. Unlike hand brakes typical bicycles, these brake work in wet conditions without slipping, so if you get caught in an unexpected rainstorm, they still work. -
How Do You Steer this Trike?
Steering is easy and natural with its steering tiller system. The common tiller simply pivots from left to right, controlling the front wheel just like a bicycle. Normally one rider is designated as “The Captain” and controls the tiller. This can be accomplished from either seat. -
Can Different Size Riders Ride Together?
Certainly. Each seat on the “Team Dual Trike” is independently adjustable without the need for tools on the glide rail system. Unlike vehicles with a single bench seat, the dual trike allows for each rider to set the seat for their own comfort level. In most cases, the dual trike is appropriate for riders from 4’10” to 6’3”. -
Is it Good for use as a Senior activity?
Without a doubt! Today more than ever people recognize the benefits of aerobic exercise. Seniors are more aware of this than most as their doctors are urging them to stay active to stay young. Seniors are seeking safe, low impact activities. They also want to have fun! Riding side by side with a companion is not only good for physical activity but also provides a stimulating, social experience.
