Balance bike
a hybrid bicycle for seniors
The Balance Bike is a hybrid bicycle for seniors. Combining user power with electric capability, the bicycle eases the physical demands on the user. An integrated pendulum wheel operates on a gyroscope to provide the bicycle’s enhanced balance. Components such as animated turn signals, a weather cover, accessible low frame, and adjustable handlebars make the Balance Bike more comfortable than any other currently available. A detachable bag also sits on the rear of the frame, providing space for everyday belongings. The Balance Bike is a modern, ergonomic and accessible hybrid bicycle that can improve mobility for people of all ages.
