86-year-old veteran climbs Pen y Fan with a walker
Ian Waddell, who turned 86 on March 4, 2024, has severe osteoarthritis and can't walk without two crutches or his walker. "The cardiologist team told me the closest I should ever get to a mountain is looking at a picture of it," he said. But I told them, 'Well, I am doing it anyway.'" As a veteran or former Parachute Regiment Soldier, Ian loves the outdoors and doesn't want to become a person who stays at home and watches TV all day because of his condition.

After the coma: Kenny Noyes aims for the half marathon in Barcelona
During a race weekend in July 2015, the professional motorcycle racer Kenny Noyes had a nasty crash that almost killed him. He suffered a traumatic brain injury and was in a coma for over a month – but fortunately, woke up. For the past 8 years he has been working daily and lately he has been improving with the help of the Trionic Veloped. Next year he plans to compete with it in the half marathon of Barcelona.

  • My brake pads came very quickly…

    I had asked my handyman, Derek, to deal with the pads for me.

    He did a good job, and I was thankful for it. I’m not able to walk for miles while taking my dog for a walk (maybe one mile) but, because I have my Veloped, it makes life a great deal e…

  • Life changing…

  • All round brilliant machine and super efficient people to advise.…

    The Trionic 14er has made such a difference to my life. I pulled it out of the box and set off for a walk: down the slab path, and shallow steps, over the rough gravel drive, along the road and back to my door. The Trionic 14er is effortless to move.…

    Sir, since the purchase of the above walker my wife has found she has less bother getting around, and no back and shoulder pain, after a days shopping. Glides easily over imperfections in footways and footpaths. I can not express how happy it makes m…

  • Trionic 9er…

    The 9er is extremely helpful and. Manoeuvrable around the the house, helping to take the weight off my severely arthritic ankles and feet. If I am outside and chat to anyone it is wonderful to be able to sit down on the built in seat.
    The only probl…

  • Reliable pack donkey…

    The Veloped works great as a carrying aid when shopping and you have heavy groceries to bring home. In the store you don't need a shopping trolley; you just grab a basket and place it on the seat for the groceries, pay in the register and it carries …

  • Very satisfied…

    I already had the previous model, which lasted more than 10 years and was used constantly.
    The new one is just as perfect for me and allows me to go for walks with my dog as well as work.…

  • More life quality again thanks to Trionic-Veloped…

    I am absolutely thrilled with the Veloped that was delivered last Monday on time. The meticulous packaging (very sturdy cardboard) made me already curious. Thanks to the detailed and richly illustrated assembly instructions even at the age of 83 I wa…

  • Great Mobility Aid…

    Has allowed me to walk in a fashion that increases my stride and I am quickly getting in better physical condition. I can walk in a more upright position which doesn't irritate my back like a previous walker did. It is amazing how the climbing tire i…
