Do you know a child with Cerebral Palsy, Spina Bifida, or poor motor coordination? Would you like to give this deserving youngster an opportunity to ride "his own tricycle" just like other neighbor children? Would you like him to see him become stronger while strengthening his limbs?

For years, the AmTryke has benefited and delighted children with disabilities. It has allowed them to experience the pleasure of riding freely even among peers without disabilities. Physical therapists acknowledge the AmTryke's therapeutic benefits to patients, citing improved motor skills and strength development. In fact, the AmTryke, was inspired by a therapist. Designed for disabilities: Rotating handle bars and a narrow turning radius provide stability. Now, available in two sizes. Designed for disabilities. Rotating handlebars are attached to the same chain drive as the foot pedals, allowing the rider's arms to assist the legs in propelling the bike. Velcro straps secure the feet to the pedals while torso and hip safety belts maintain the rider in the seat. The wide wheel base, and adjustable turning radius, provide added stability.
