Recently we received an e-mail from Mrs Kling in Germany, that we would like to share with you all.

- “Hello Trionic,

Do you remember me?

I am now 90 years old. “Rushing Roland” has now received his summer tires, and he’s in real active use. I’m very happy that I have him, although after hiking on two consecutive afternoons I need a day’s recovery. I’m always happy if it’s raining on my rest days, then it doesn’t give me such a bad conscience.

The troubles I had with my legs are long gone. When I go walking with a rollator-using friend of mine, within seconds I’m 20 meters ahead, and I have to turn around and go back to keep on chatting with her. This way I walk three times longer than her.

Recently “Rushing Roland” also accompanied me, when out walking with my daughter, down a steep and very rough decline without tipping at all. He gives me a great feeling of security, and most of all a better quality of life. I can again go to places in my beautiful homeland that I haven’t seen in years, since I still drive and can load “Roland” to my car although it requires some effort. But most times someone is there to offer their help.

I wish you a nice Sunday and greet you from my heart!”

/Mrs Kling, Germany

Of course we remember you Mrs Kling! We are really happy to hear that you are frequently out walking with your Veloped, and that it has given you a better quality of life.

We wish you a wonderful summer with many adventures!

Short note:

Mrs Kling has nicknamed her Veloped ”Rushing Roland”, after the famous steam locomotive on the island of Rügen in Germany.

Product Reviews    

  • Really helps me to get about outdoors.…

    The only drawback is it is difficult for me to lock the seat in position. My husband has to do it for me. Without him, I would have to always have it set up and not folded.…

  • Excellent bit of kit…

    Excellent. From my previous average 20m range, the world has now expanded so much that I was able to take my youngest round the dinosaur museum (him sitting on the seat, facing forward, when he got tired).

    Trionic Walker 14er is great for walking on rough and unpaved streets. With this, I have increased my speed and distance. I added a bicycle speedometer/odometer to monitor my speed and distance. A great improvement over my 8-inch indoor walker.…

  • Pure relief!…

    I am the kind of person who likes to read reviews, but rarely gives any. But this time I want to share my enthusiasm with others. Due to my MS illness, I am pretty much dependent on a walking aid. So far, I have been using my walking sticks. Since we…

  • This walker has given me my life back……

  • Very satisfied…

    I already had the previous model, which lasted more than 10 years and was used constantly.

  • Happy with the Veloped Trek 14 L…

    We bought the Veloped Trek 14 L recently. It was great how quickly it was delivered and my husband was able to put it together without any problems.
