Wanted: adult folding trike - Sorted

[Dec66]

Hi,

I'm after a folding trike for my daughter with special needs. She's 8 years old but is 5' 1" tall and climbing.

Been looking everywhere but all I see is "out of stock", "discontinued", "requires professional assembly", or "three month waiting time".

Anything considered. Thanks.

Try contacting CC Bexley. They have a lot of trike riders. They might be able to give you a lead.

Well, after quite a bit of eBay-ing, I managed to nab a careworn yet sound Pashley Tri-1 for £205, and I made the 360-mile round trip this morning to collect. Mechanically, absolutely sound, and not too shabby cosmetically, nothing a bit of TLC won't cure.

I just rode it myself, actually, and nearly got into bother... Completely different to riding a two-wheeler, aren't they?

Indeed they are. Surprising that most of us learned to ride a trike before they were 4 and had no problems riding round the garden.
