Triride Power Add Ons

For over a decade, the leading Italian manufacturer Triride has been changing lives with their unique handbikes. These handbikes convert manual wheelchairs into versatile electric vehicles, allowing users to navigate diverse terrains with ease, from city streets to rugged mountain paths. What sets Triride apart is their handbikes' proprietary electronics and motors, which provide superior performance in speed, torque, power, and range compared to competitors. Each handbike is made to order, allowing for customisation to meet individual user requirements, including handlebar configurations, tyre options, and frame colours.

Triride handbikes are designed with your comfort and ease of use in mind. They incorporate advanced features such as adaptive cruise control, which maintains a constant speed downhill, and an Intelligent Braking System with both mechanical and hydraulic disc brakes. They are compatible with nearly all active wheelchair models, enabling easy attachment and detachment for swift transitions between manual and powered driving. Optional T-stands assist with mounting and dismounting based on the user's core strength and experience, enhancing usability and convenience.

Whether for work, leisure, or travel, Triride is the go-to brand for handbikes. They empower users to break down barriers and explore new horizons, making every journey simpler and more enjoyable. Unlike companies that offer handbikes as part of a broader product range, Triride specialises exclusively in this innovative mobility solution. This focus allows them to push the boundaries of design and functionality, empowering users to explore new horizons and simplify every journey.

A key differentiator is Triride's commitment to developing proprietary electronics. While many manufacturers rely on generic, off-the-shelf components, Triride designs and builds its own electronic systems. This approach ensures superior quality, performance, and integration tailored specifically for handbikes. It also enables Triride to continuously innovate and refine its products, maintaining its position at the forefront of handbike technology.

At Wheelfreedom, you can explore Triride's cutting-edge range with the guidance of our impartial product specialists. Experience first-hand the difference that specialised design and proprietary technology can make in enhancing your mobility and independence.

Rob Gailor - Triride T-Rocks

“After seeking advice from Martin at Wheelfreedom Chessington Surrey, I was supplied with the 16" wheel version as I needed it to be able to do multiple terrains for holiday use and after taking it away to Portugal it exceeded my expectations by a mile, its given me independence, fun and a lot of admiring looks and comments and wouldn't hesitate in showing anyone interested how it functions. Top marks for a top piece of kit!”

Aaron Kampfer - Triride T-Rocks

"Adam an assessor at Wheelfreedom is amazing and he will be the tech for the rest of my life. He’s got such a vast understanding and he can make my life very simple. I don’t understand my own body but he understands the chair and the perfect balance. He measured from my heel to knee and knew my chair size within two minutes. I can put my total faith in him. I trust him immensely."

Nick Guppy - Triride Special Light

"I purchased a Triride Special Light in 2023. It has proved to be a total game changer. I am now able to get to places three times quicker than previously, and more importantly I do not need my wife or anyone else to push me there. It was easy to take abroad on holiday, and we were able to do much more exploring than without it. It is also very easy to connect and disconnect. I totally recommend it and have done so to other members of the wheelchair community."
