Creating a Cycle of Mobility
All Freedom Concepts adaptive tricycles are designed for mobility, therapy, recreation, fun and freedom! With the use of our accessories, Freedom Concepts adaptive tricycles can be customized and adjusted to the exact specifications and requirements unique to each rider. This ensures that each adaptive tricycle is a perfect fit, customized to help create an enjoyable riding experience for each rider.
Adjustable Tilt Fork
With the addition of our Adjustable Tilt Fork, therapists and caregivers can easily adjust the bike’s front fork – adding or reducing the amount of tilt – helping to improve the rider’s overall comfort and positioning without affecting the relative position of the cranks and seat. The easily and highly adjustable fork provides 6” of adjustment range, translating to a variable 10° tilt.
On/Off Pin Reciprocator
Manually turn the reciprocator on to allow for Direct Drive (when the bike is in motion, the feet are also in motion). Turn the reciprocator off to engage Free Wheel (allows legs to rest while bike coasts forward).
Occiput Headrest
The removable/adjustable head rest extends the seat backing height an additional 7” and can be removed for ease of transport. Custom heights available. Available with Adjustable Velcro OcciputSupport Cushion.
• Provides head and neck support
Pulley String
The toe pulley string system keeps footplates flat if the rider cannot maintain ankle/foot control.
• Assists completion of cycle of revolution
• Decreases plantar flexion for ease of pedaling
Neoprene Adjustable Footplate
Our Neoprene boot style footplate isa quick and easy way to maintain proper positioning and pedal pressure. Easy to
adjust Velcro strapping, along with grooved slots on the footplate, allow for fine-tune adjustments to properly match
the individual’s hip to feet ratio.
Molded ABS Footplate w/
Ratchet Straps
These specially designed footplates provide precise positioning for children with more spasticity to minimize twisting and maximize pedaling ability.
• Assists in leg alignment
• Aids in neutral hip/knee flexion to strengthen push-down for those riders who require more firm and adjustable support to keep their feet on the pedals
Footplate Spacers
Spacers are used to compensate for irregular leg lengths and to extend the bike’s usability as the rider grows. Spacers are sold in 1/4″ increments.
Velcro Hand-Eye Coordination Gloves
Velcro gloves are ideal for those with low spasticity control to help maintain a firm grasp on the handlebar. The flexible and breathable material with a small extension allows the caregiver to attach the rider’s hand to the device using a Velcro loop.
• Aids in gross grasp
• Assists in upper extremity propping
Direct Drive Gearing
When the mobility device is in motion, the feet are also in motion (there is only one gear). The automatic motion trains the rider’s legs to move in a reciprocal motion, consequently building muscles, which may lead to independent rider propulsion of the bike. (Not available on ET 2611)
