Sweet ride for a beginner! - Poly wheels are fast and nice to learn on, yet it is easy to convert to an all air upgrade which I did after a couple of months...
I bought a second one also, and after upgrading it to Air Tires all the way around, I also added an e-Kit, and have been commuting back and forth 5 miles to work with it, using about 10% motor in places where carving is not practical... Great excercise and great fun!

I got a Trikke as a novelty and was thrilled with how fun it is and because of that what a good workout it is. My husband got into it to and now we take turns - until we can get a second one!

Several years ago I ordered one... due to high demand, I was given the choice to wait until more were available or cancel my order... I cancelled my order, but never forgot about this product. Last Autumn I ordered one for myself and one for my child.
I still haven't quite mastered how to get it moving forward without starting out pushing off the pavement with my foot. Still, my daughter and I love it and are constantly wanting to get out to ride them. Our little pup likes to run next to us, as he loves to run. Thank you for making such an awesome recreation/transportation/aerobic vehicle, all in a single product. Amazing!
I also love that it is portable.

I enjoy riding my trikke. My kids think it is a lot of fun too. I need a very smooth surface to ride on though. The road is too difficult for me to trikke on. I turn music on and ride it in my husband's
shop whenever I have a free minute.
It is always a source of interest to anyone who sees it.

My family has had a blast on the Trikke. It is so much more fun that riding a bike or running. It is a work out I look forward
to.

This is an excellent piece of exercise equipment. Lot of fun and a terrific workout, especially on hills (which took some getting used to!). Also easy to transport in our RV and car.

My Trikke is a lot of fun. It doesn't do very well on pavement. I take it to the school I teach at when we have an inservice day and the kids are not around and all the teacher's love to ride it up and down the halls. I enjoy
the exercise I get when I ride it.

T78 Convertible
I was amazed at how comfortable this was and how quickly, not only, I, and my daughters, were able to handle it. We rode it through rain,sleet,
snow and had to put it up when the snow came up to my ankles. You look at it and you would think it is brand new. I come from Vermont and the salt and sant didn't kill it. I take care or it as I do my rollerskates, TLS. This was a most awesome investment I gained pleasure, exercise, coordination (my girls) lots of stares muscle tone, and a sense of freedom. The one thing that is great is the fact that I'm
not BORED with it this year after having it aver a year. It is a piece if exercise equipment disguised as "FUN"!!!

I've been a walking enthusiast for nearly 20 years and then I bought the Trikke. I love this wonderful machine, it is the best purchase I've
ever made and I tell everyone about it. I ride as often as I can and regularly get 6 miles a day on my lunch break. I can't get enough time on it to be satisfied. TRIKKE ROCKS!

Trikke Fan!
I thoroughly enjoy riding the Trikke and find it to be quite a fun challenge and a workout. I haven't
totally mastered the carving technique yet and I am still pushing off quite a bit. I plan to purchase the air wheels and think that will help me master the Trikke more quickly and will give me a much smoother ride. I really like how the Trikke folds for easy mobility too. One disappointing thing I have discovered is that
I ride alone and it would be more fun if my husband had one so we could ride together!

The T78 is an awesome product. It fun to ride on flat ground, but the real fun is on a slightly
down-hill. I get a good fun workout on a slight incline. Great for fun, GREAT for workouts.

T78 air
My first Trikke is a T78 air. I bought it immediately after riding a demo at the local dealership. I had read about the Trikke on the web for several months,
watched the videos, and read the forum. But I hesitated to buy something so large and costly without seeing on in person.
The T78 was larger than I expected, but the right size and price point for me. I bought the Trikke as a means of exercise. I am fighting a weigh problem, but exercise has never been a part of my weight loss programs. I wasn't an outdoor person, and a previous back injurty prevented me from participating i many forms of exercise. My doctor recommended weight-bearing exercize, and I knew that aerobic exercise should be balanced with weight training.
It is s shame that there is a learning curve for the Trikke. I believe there would be more buyers, and fewer owners who give up and hang them in their garages because they don't get the feeling of fun immediately. But for those of use who take the challenge and stay with it, it is worth the effort.
What kept me going in the beginning when I wasn't able to step on the Trikke and just go, was that it felt like I just didn't know the right movement, not that there was something difficult about using the machine itself. I had read the forums about finding the "sweet spot", and as I made adjustments to how I used my arms
and legs, I began to get glimpses of the fun that was promised. That was enough to keep me working at it.
On my blog I have a list of how my life has been changed by owning a Trikke. The main points are lost pounds, lost inches, and good friends I have made with fellow trikkers.
Specifically regarding the T78 air, this size is appropriate for me. It is a good compromise between size and weight. It is small enough to fit folded in the back of my Honda CR-V. It is made with solid components, but I am still able to life it to travel. The air tires are quiet. The brakes are very strong.
I have recommended trikking to family and friends, but also to my primary care physician, my bariatric surgeon, and my chiropractor. They are all intrigued by the amount and type of exercise that can be achieved without a gym.
I don't know if you have noticed this, but the side-to-side movement a Trikke rider makes once they are comfortable with it, looks like someone strolling down a country lane whistling. How fun is that!

After reviewing the infomercial many times I became obcessed with getting a trike.Upon receiving it I was not disappointed.It is very well built easy to assemble and a blast to ride.After learning how to ride it,it was amazing that you could get the cardio without the impact and it's
a blast to ride.
I have been exercising most of my adult life and now at 43 I try to choose wisely how to train so I don't tear up my joints.I have been running for about ten years and I fear for my knees.Thank to the trikke as I get better riding it I will stop running completly and rely on my trike for fun and cardio.Thanks Trikke
I also love that it's made in america

it's
AWESOME!
I think it's one of the most amazing thing invented. It lets you do really good exercise and it's not that hard. Besides, it looks really cool when you're on it. At first I thought it's mechanism was kind of fragile, but it seems to be firm, because thank God it hasn't broken yet, because sometimes when I carry it one of the legs moves in a way it isn't
supposed to, but then I just move it back and everything's fine.

Mr.
This has to be the single most, greatest thing since sliced bread. I have had 3 now and love every second carving. I hope to graduate to the T12 one day. But as for now, the all pneumatic T8 is the best. Everytime I go out to Trikke, I get stopped by so many people asking what it is, where to get one, and is it easy to ride. Well it is. I am a larger guy and every spring, when it gets warmer, and things start turning green again, there is nothing like the freedom and fun you get Trikke-ing!! 39yr old male in MO. 5++++++++++++++

I love the concept of this product. I believe I have one of the older ones and do OK on flat gound, but it is hard on any kind of incline. I think the newer ones are easier to use.

RETIRED (and loving it(
when I first purchased my T78air, I took it out of the box without reading the instructions, rode it to the corner, and on the way back to my house, I had thoughts of returning it. Since then I have had a complete 360 turn-a-round toward it. Riding it for over an hour each day, my body began to feel like it did some 25-30 years ago. I only wish there was some way they would hit the airwaves like the ten-speed bikes did once, long live trikkes.

I have owned
the T7
8 for 1.5 years. I have ridden it nearly every day. I have worn out a complete set of tires! It is a great workout for the lower body and with minimal impact. It is truly an exercise that you can do all your life. I have had many people ask about it and want to try it for themselves. Several have bought one after my
demonstration. Thank you for such a versatile product. Sincerely, Ken

Trikking is great! I'm a 60 year old who used to run. I can't run anymore because of tight calf muscles and arthritis
in my knees. But, I can hop on my trikke and do 5 or 6 miles and feel wonderful, having fun too! My only recommendation is to buy a model with all three air tires. The polyurethane wheels don't work very well on rough road surfaces. I can't wait to upgrade.

Mr.
I bought a T78 convertible several weeks after seeing the TV advertisement. After viewing all the video's available a number of times my wife and I are still trying to find the "sweet spot". We have a parking lot behind our house which is a great place to practice. Unfortunately it's
eihter slightly downhill or uphill. The downhill is really fun, somewhat like downhill sking but not exactly. My son took it out for a first time spin and crashed after several times around the parking lot. I advised him to watch the video's especially about how to ride safely. My wife crashed a week later (just as she thought she had it down). I'm
waitng for my turn. We are still excited about learning how to ride it and are not planning on giving up. As for the T78, I think it is very well made. The unit is still together after two good crashes. I can't even find any scratches on it. It's a little tight to unfold but I put some WD40 on the latches and I believe
after more use it will loosen up. I intend on upgrading the rear tires in the near future. We choose the T78 because of the price. Even if we stop using it in the future we won't have invested too much money in it. The T78 is a good beginning machine and I think my wife and I will probably beat it up learning on it and then upgarde to more advanced machines later.
