training. They are fun to ride and offer the opportunity for inclusive play. For
adults, AmTrykes provide a new form of mobility, exercise and freedom to
explore the community.
For therapists the trykes provide an age appropriate, safe, dynamic modality
for improving balance, coordination and strength. The trykes can build
endurance, self-confidence and provide another form of self-mobility aside
from the assistive device that the person may routinely use (i.e., wheelchair,
crutches, walker). The multiple adjustments and accessories of the trykes make
them a valuable addition to the medical therapy units’ repertoire of
therapeutic devices.
For parents and families the use of AmTryke fulfills the need of every child to
have a bike. All children deserve a chance to have a bike just like their siblings
and friends. Given a safe, stable platform, many riders, not previously
considered, can ride just like their peers. AmTrykes are designed to look like
bikes, not medical equipment, and to be age appropriate.
The AmTryke Road Trip brings the equipment to rehabs, clinics and therapy
centers. Training or in-services are offered to teach therapists about the
AmTryke program. These are often combined with bike days so families can
bring their riders and receive free evaluations for AmTrykes.
