What was your concern with this review?
First impression: very sturdy private jet construction handsomely finished. Frame does not wiggle and feels very rigid. My only questionmark is that the wheels are not made of metal but kinda plastic. The hub caps loosen easily, need some superglue. I know that most shopping trolleys have plastic wheels instead of metal wheels, but I am not totally convinced about the durability of a rollator of this kind. Well, time will tell.
The problem with the frontwheels section adjuster is that it tended to slide either in the upper or lower position, as the pull-out lock did not stay put well. As I mainly use the Veloped in neutral position, I drilled a hole in the sliding adjuster to secure it with a bolt, which works perfectly. I would suggest Trionix design/engineering simply remove the terrain slider from the manufacturing at all, or simplify the adjuster not using a slider but a simple handle. Less is more.
As for the overall experience, the outward camber of the rearwheels making the overall balance more stable. Good for rally, or just for crosswind landing after a turbulent flight :-)
I removed the sliding seat in order to make room for a removable shopping-basket or photocamera backback. The walking-stick holder is very handy for transporting a camera tripod.
I have learned that making turns by using the arms like on a steeringwheel is not as easy as simply turning the body between the rearwheels. I keep the frontwheels in the middle neutral position between offroad and city, for a relaxed steering experience both in the shopping mall, on the sidewalk, and in the forest.
This Veloped is for me the perfect rehab aid to improve walking again.
The Veloped does attract headturns from curious insta people. I no longer limp with a stick, and so I started walking from day-1 with this machine. It is fun, looks cool, no longer disturbed by my disability, doesn't look like a budget walker, rather a super modern extension that leaves all rollators far back in the future.
The Veloped Has Changed My Life - Yippee!…
My bicycle accident, four years ago, left me with such poor balance, that I struggled to walk with a stick. In fact, I found myself very reluctant to walk even short distances. There is the standard red rollator, something many elderly people have, b…

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…

The Veloped is a great invention and fills the gap that other conventional rollators cannot. The large smooth-running wheels and the twin wheel in the front make the ride wonderfully easy and provide support and, most importantly, allow you to walk m…

My wife's Trionic, as I call it, has exceeded our expectations and has given my wife freedom to roam and has coped with rough and uneven ground as though it was flat! Plus whenever she wants to rest, finds the seat comfortable.

I received my Veloped on time in a very sturdy packaging and tried it out with my wife in Trier the following weekend.
It is a wonderful device, the developers have come up with some great solutions that you won't find on any other walker (this is…

My husband has osteoporosis of the spine. Purchasing the Trionic Veloped has made a wonderful difference to both our lives. My husband can now step out and walk in a much more upright position. I no longer have the anxiety that he may fall, or that w…
