Hello! How can we help you?

What if I have trouble making turns and steering my Veloped?

The front climbing wheel offers two different settings with different characteristics:

  1. One wheel on the ground = Easy steering and climbing ability.
  2. Two wheels on the ground = Direction-steadiness (for running/very difficult terrain) and climbing ability.

Setting 'B' makes the Veloped difficult to turn.

If you prefer the easy steering mode, you can use the setting with only one wheel on the ground for all types of terrain.

Most certainly you have changed the setting and both front wheels are standing on the ground. Change the setting and make sure that the climbing wheel is set to easy steering mode.

It is vital that you do as follows to change to the easy steering mode:

  1. Turn the front wheel 180 degrees, so you have easier access to the adjustment handle.
  2. With your left hand, grab the left wheel and lift it off the ground.
  3. With your right hand, grab the red knob and pull it towards you.
  4. Push the 'triangular' adjustment arm as far to the bottom as possible. You should hear a 'clonk', metal against metal.
  5. Let go of the red knob and make sure that the adjustment arm is secured in its bottom position.
  6. There should be a gap of 1.5 cm between the first wheel (left) and the ground.

Here's a video showing the above:

If you do not lift the left wheel when changing the setting, the adjuster arm will not engage and both wheels remain on the ground.

  • Rollator Ease…

    As I already have a Trionic Veloped Tour for use locally and use it regularly when shopping or for photograpy treks, I wanted something new and smaller for travel. The Rollator Walker 14er is perfect for holding camera equipment, traversing outdoor …

  • 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…

  • Upsala…

    I can finally walk upright with my new walker and do not have to look at the ground to avoid potholes and the like. My young grandchildren call to each other to be quick to catch up with Oma. At 84 years old I find it a bit heavy to get into my boot,…

  • Excellent Walker…

    This walker really does work exceptionally well. Very pleased with it. It lives in the back of our SUV and is used any time Ann has to walk more than a short distance.

    It doubles up as a seat with the right height to get in and out of as opposed…

  • Excellent Product…

    We purchased this walker for our 14-year-old daughter, a brain cancer survivor who has no vestibular function so that she could use it to go into the countryside and at Guide camp. It took some getting used to because she has been using a posterior w…

  • Excellent customer service…

    I messed up the thread for the clamping screw on the brake lever. Customer service helped me in a very friendly and reliable manner. After a few days I received a replacement screw, but unfortunately the thread in the hole of the lever was worn out.

  • 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).

    I really cannot thank you enough.…

  • Thank you…
