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.

    Saw your ad in DN and thought that the walker had to be seen in person. I was pleasantly surprised by your response and all the information I received and now I am the owner of the Rolls Royce of walkers. It looks heavy but it is light as a feather. …

    Our son is very happy with this high-quality rollator. The very good brakes in combination with the large pneumatic wheels give him much more safety than he had with previous rollators. The handles are also much better than on his former ones. The sy…

    As you may remember I needed to adapt it to have forearm rests instead of handles and found the charity organisation 'Remap' here in the UK who were able to take the forearm rests from an old rollator (an indoor Topro) and put them on my lovely new T…

  • I am very happy with the Veloped Tour…

    I now enjoy walking again. I walk more safely and don't put as much strain on my joints as with the walking poles. I also cope better with the uneven paths. It's also ideal for shopping.…
