Children's and adult scooters

Please note that there is significant differences children's and adult scooters.

This is important to consider when choosing a scooter, especially for children and teenagers.

: children up to 20-50 kg depending on the model; adults up to 100 kg.

2. Rack height: children - from 47 to 93 cm depending on the model, may not be adjustable;

adults - from 64 to 103 cm - height adjustable. Exceptions are stunt scooters, as it is necessary to maintain structural rigidity.

3. Materials used(main parts): children's - plastic; adults - metal.

Firstly, it may not be safe, since the child may not be able to handle the scooter, and secondly, the child may lose interest in riding.

Rules for choosing children's tricycles with a parental handle
An excellent alternative to seated strollers are tricycles for children from one year old, which are driven and controlled by parents. They are very comfortable, absolutely safe, ideal for long walks. When buying a 3-wheel bicycle with a handle for your child, you are making a choice in favor of ergonomics, compactness and reliability. The main thing is that it suits the baby and you like it.

Technical aspects of selection
The opportunity to buy a 3-wheeled bicycle is provided to parents by many children's stores. And when choosing it, you should pay special attention to the design of the model. As a rule, 3-wheel bicycles with handles consist of the following parts:
- a seat with a comfortable backrest and a protective cover;
- pedals that the child can turn, and a footrest for rest;
- frame with steering wheel;
- restrictive barrier;
- sun awning;
- seat belt system.

Some parts (restrictors, belts, etc.) are removable, which allows you to remove them as the child grows. But, in any case, a children's 3-wheeled bicycle is controlled by a handle in the hands of the parent.
Parameters and characteristics taken into account by the buyer
To buy a 3-wheeler that's perfect for you, consider your baby's age. Find out in advance what height and weight the model you like is intended for. You can choose a tricycle from 1 year or from 2 years. The main thing is that the child feels confident in it and reaches the pedals.

In addition, when choosing 3-wheel bicycles with a handle, parents should pay attention to the following parameters:
1. Reliability of the frame. It is desirable that it be completely metal.
2. Wheel material. It is better to give preference to a model with rubber tires.
3. Availability and design of the awning. It is very convenient if its position can be adjusted.
4. Parental handle device. It can perform exclusively the function of a pusher or completely control the movement of the bicycle.
5. Comfortable seating. It should be ergonomic, non-slip, and height adjustable.

The quality of seat belts, locking and braking systems, the price of a 3-wheeled bicycle, the presence of additional elements, etc. also matter. Try to take into account all the details to make the right choice.
Rules for the operation of children's transport
Regardless of whether you bought 3-wheel bicycle from a year or two years, it must be used in accordance with the operating instructions. These products do not require special maintenance or care. They are light, compact, easy to fold, and take up minimal space.
Choosing tricycle from 2 years, you may prefer a model with fewer seat belts and restraints. But, in any case, before you start moving, carefully fix the position of the little passenger’s body. If the child is safe, he and his parents will get the most out of the walk.

Packing: individual box.

A modern scooter consists of a number of components, which have technical differences for different riding styles:

A foot platform (or deck) is a flat surface designed to rest your feet on a scooter. The surface of the platform is covered with an abrasive “skin” that prevents the feet from slipping. Children require a shorter platform than adults.

Steering column - designed to control the scooter. It can be solid or height-adjustable, as well as with folding handles. All city scooters are equipped with a folding mechanism for easy transportation on public transport. Accordingly, steering columns are usually telescopic, i.e. folding. This also allows you to adapt the height of the product to the height of the owner. There are two types of grips for scooter handles. Soft ones are made of polyurethane foam, provide a comfortable grip and are used on most scooters. Hard grips are made of rubber and are used mainly on stunt models where increased wear resistance is required.

Folding mechanism - a device for folding the scooter for its convenient transportation. Typically, scooters are equipped with a quick folding system with one or two movements. On stunt scooters As a rule, there is no folding system, since aggressive riding contributes to loosening of the fastenings and, accordingly, loss of riding quality and failure of the scooter itself.

Depending on the purpose and features of use, scooters are equipped with two or three wheels. Traditionally, scooters for children have three (two in the back and one in the front) or four wheels for stability and safety of the child.

Models for older children and adults have two wheels. Such scooters are considered the fastest and most maneuverable

Depending on the design of the scooter, as well as the surface and driving style for which it is intended, wheels of different diameters are used. The wheels also vary in hardness and have a numerical designation. Both hard and soft wheels have their advantages and disadvantages. Therefore, the choice of wheel hardness is based on personal preference.

Bearings.

The scooters use 608-size or ABEC bearings - exactly the same as in roller skates and skateboards. The higher the accuracy of the bearing, the potentially higher the rotation speed, but the lower the resistance to moisture and dust, and therefore the shorter the service life.

In the design of scooters they use foot brake, less often - manual. The foot brake is considered the most effective and in a simple way braking, which is why the vast majority of scooters are equipped with it. The foot brake is usually combined with the fender rear wheel. By pressing the wing with varying amounts of force, you can adjust the speed at which the scooter stops.

The scooter can also be equipped with additional elements:

Carrying strap. Used in the most compact models of city scooters, it makes it easier to carry the scooter when folded.

Step. It is used in models of city scooters for parking them in a vertical position.

Shock absorber front wheel. Used in children's and urban models of scooters. The shock absorber absorbs vibration and shock transmitted from uneven surfaces to the steering column and platform.

It will not be an exaggeration to say that for almost every cyclist, acquaintance with a bike began with a three-wheeled version in the very early childhood, and only then did he master the whole variety of two-wheeled transport, switching to mountain and road models. Nevertheless, there are tricycles for adults, and they are increasingly gaining popularity.

Types of tricycles

Adult tricycles, or trikes, are very diverse in technical specifications And appearance. They differ in layout, riding position, gear type, frame, application and other parameters.

Tricycle configuration

There are two main types of tricycle layout:

  • Deltoid, in which there is one front wheel and two rear ones. This option is familiar to everyone from childhood; only an adult tricycle has large sizes and rear wheel drive.
  • Reverse delta, or "tadpole"(from the English word tadpole), which has two front and one rear wheels. This type is less common and can be seen much more often on sports competitions than on the street.

Sometimes there are models that look like motorcycles with a sidecar. In them, one of the wheels, most often the rear one, is connected by an axle to the side one. Such bicycles have not become widespread, although some “Kulibins” continue to experiment with them.

Cyclist seating

Depending on the position of the rider’s body when riding, trikes are divided into vertical and horizontal.

Tricycles with vertical landing

This type is similar to a regular bicycle, and differs from it in the presence of three wheels. This type of trike has a diamond-shaped or open frame, often folding. The cyclist sits astride it, with his legs dangling on both sides. Trikes are often made from a two-wheeled bike by replacing the rear wheel with a special unit, which is a bridge with a differential and one or more sprockets. Some of them may have a large, wide seat with a backrest, which reduces the strain on the back.


Three wheeled bike with vertical landing

Horizontal tricycle

A bicycle that must be ridden reclining or lying on your back is called a ligerade or recumbent. This also includes a trike with such a seating position. Thanks to its low center of gravity and high aerodynamic properties, it allows you to reach much higher speeds than a regular bicycle.

Drive types

It is mainly used to propel a tricycle muscle strength legs, although there are models for the disabled in which the pedals are rotated by hand. They are also often installed various types electric motors.

In delta tricycles, the drive can be carried out on both rear wheels or only on one. The last option is simpler and cheaper. Such bicycles can have one fixed gear or several. There are also options with front wheel drive.

The reverse delta version usually has a driven rear wheel, but there are models in which the pedals rotate the front axle. Such tricycles have a more complex design.

Control

The tricycle is controlled using a steering wheel connected directly to the front wheel fork or axle. This device is most common on vertical three-wheelers, both delta-shaped and “tadpoles”. There are versions of bicycles with a reverse delta configuration, in which steering occurs by turning the rear wheel. This scheme is more complex and has a larger turning radius.

Ligerad trikes can also be controlled using handles, which are half of the steering wheel. They are usually located next to the seat and are connected to the wheel or axle using rods or rods.

Use of tricycles

According to their purpose, trikes can be divided into three conditional groups: models for recreation and entertainment, sports and work.

Sports models

In terms of the number of different configurations, tricycles for sports can compete with a regular bicycle. Most often, various variations are used with a semi-recumbent or recumbent position of the rider, but there are also mountain and mountain bikes converted into a three-wheeler. road bikes.


Sports trike

Due to their low center of gravity, ligrades are much more stable than upright bikes. In addition, they have better aerodynamic qualities, which allows you to reach much higher speeds than on a regular bike. The reverse delta wheel configuration has the least resistance, which is why it is most often used when creating velomobiles.

Tricycles for recreation

The most common type of tricycles are devices with a vertical landing and a delta-shaped wheel arrangement. It is these trikes that can most often be found on the streets of our cities, although their number is still not large. They are mainly used by elderly people and disabled people. They are also popular among those who have never learned to ride a regular bicycle.


Tricycle for the elderly

People whose physical capabilities are limited for one reason or another can easily drive such a vehicle. Often this is the only view for them physical activity, which they can afford. A similar 3-wheeled bicycle is also used as rehabilitation therapy for people who have suffered a stroke or other serious illnesses.

The tricycle has gained some popularity among tourists who love multi-day trips. Thanks to the installation of voluminous, roomy trunks, they can transport large number things needed on long trips.

Application in business

Everyone is well aware of pedicabs, which are widely used in Asia and Africa. Here they are widely used not only for transporting passengers, but also cargo, sometimes quite heavy and having quite large dimensions. However, even in countries with strong cycling traditions such as China, India or Bangladesh, they are increasingly being replaced by internal combustion engines.

In Western Europe, the USA and other developed countries, the use of tricycles as transport for transporting goods or passengers remains rather exotic. Nevertheless, in many cities the authorities pay great attention to the development of bicycle transport. For example, in Copenhagen, The Hague, Paris and many other cities there is a taxi service on 3-wheeled bicycles, but their area of ​​operation is limited mainly to the city center and is intended mainly for tourists.

Much more often you can find bicycle trikes adapted for transporting goods. Such vehicles are available in almost every city in the world, regardless of the degree of economic development of the country. These are often mobile retail outlets selling ice cream, hot dogs and other goods. It should be noted that such vehicles are not intended for long trips. Most often, they travel a couple of blocks a day to the place of trade, and in the evening they return to the garage.

Advantages and disadvantages of tricycles

Like any other type of transport, tricycles have both positive and negative aspects. A lot depends on their configuration and the position of the cyclist, as well as on operating conditions.

The main advantage of using tricycles is that there is no need to balance to maintain balance even when coming to a complete stop. For older people and disabled people, this circumstance is decisive when choosing a tricycle as a means of transportation. However, it has low lateral stability and is prone to tipping over when turning, which limits its scope of application and speed of movement.

This property is especially pronounced in tricycles with an upright seat. In ligrades it is less pronounced due to the low center of gravity. The problem can be solved by using the Ackermann principle in trike axles, which allows the wheels to change the angle of inclination when turning. However, such a rotary unit dramatically increases the cost of the device and is found only in expensive sports models.


Tricycle with inclined front axle

Another advantage, which already applies to tricycles, is the ability to move in a comfortable reclining or supine position, which reduces the load on the back and allows you to develop more high speeds. Such trikes are especially in demand among veteran cyclists, for whom lower back diseases are a professional ailment. In addition, the low seat makes it easier to get into. But there is a negative side here too: a low center of gravity and small ground clearance makes such a 3-wheeled bicycle almost invisible to other road users, which makes it suitable for use on roads public use extremely dangerous.

Another advantage of trikes is the ability to transport goods due to the presence of a two-wheel axle. However, this dramatically reduces the speed, maneuverability and versatility of the tricycle as vehicle, while a regular bicycle can easily perform the same functions, you just need to equip it with a trailer.

So, our brief acquaintance with the tricycle has come to an end, and we can draw some conclusions. A tricycle, without a doubt, has the right to life and is a completely self-sufficient means of transportation, but the scope of its application remains very narrow. It is practically irreplaceable when used for recreational purposes and as transport for people with disabilities. The trike also has great potential as sports equipment. However, in other areas, the traditional bicycle remains the undisputed favorite, and in the foreseeable future its three-wheeled brother has no chance of changing the established status quo.
