User Manual
Dear user,
ank you for choosing our product! We truly hope you will
experience many pleasant moments and enjoy your Trionic
Veloped both o-road and in the city.
By choosing a Trionic Veloped you will enjoy a whole range of
benets, and it will improve your access to dierent outdoor
environments and hopefully increase your quality of life.
Please read the User Manual carefully before use and follow all
the guidelines, especially the Safety Instructions.
e Veloped is primarily made for outdoor use.
Trionic Veloped
e Veloped has a unique 3-wheel design, but as you can see
it has in fact four wheels. It’s aimed to be used as a walking aid,
especially for people with the desire to be physically active outdoors. Developed with a focus on walking and facilitating access
for the user, the Veloped is one of a kind. Its main characteristic
is a dual front wheel with the capacity to overcome obstacles up
to 13 cm high. e force required to overcome a smaller obstacle
is also greatly reduced, when compared to a traditional wheel.
e 3-wheel design, coupled with the front wheel’s suspension
and the air-lled tires, increases both comfort and accessibility
on all uneven surfaces.
e Veloped is tested and approved according to the international standard ISO-11199-2:2005, for a maximum user weight of
150 kg.
