Why a tricycle can be a perfect aid for senior citizens...
Mobility is a key factor for quality of life, especially for people with higher age. Our tricycles for seniors do not only offer safety and stability, but also independence and freedom for seniors.
Many of our customers who have difficulty walking due to joint problems long to be mobile again.
In addition, many senior citizens no longer feel safe on a two-wheeler due to increasing balance problems.
The stability of a pfautec tricycle can help to restore confidence while riding in the event of balance problems.
Our classic tricycle frame type makes it easy to get on and off thanks to the low entry.
Our recumbent tricycles enable an easy entry and exit thanks to the close proximity of the seat to the ground.
Even at slow speeds or when coming to a full stop, riders do not have to exit the tricycle as it remains on the grounds safely.
Our recumbent tricycles also offer a high level of comfort thanks to our ergonomic premium seat. The wide seat cushion can relieve pressure on the rump and perineum.
The backrest and seat can be adjusted individually to fit the rider´s physique perfectly.
Many riders find the forward-pushed pedalling direction to be easier on the knees. Furthermore, it is placing the feet on the ground is quick and easy on our recumbent models.
Pfautec accessories provide additional comfort. Walking aids can easily be clamped into the walking aid holder on the cycle and is therefore always ready at hand.
This allows senior citizens to regain their independence and flexibility in getting around. Riding a tricycle offers an effective way to remain active at a higher age and to carry out small everyday tasks comfortably.
Our tricycles therefore enable independence and freedom for senior citizens and help them to actively participate in social life again.
