Our bikes
Van Raam has a variant of the traditional tricycle. This has a low spacious step through and easier sitting position. Instead of above the pedals, you sit a little behind them. This gives you a lower sitting position, so you can always mount with both your legs on the ground and have optimum space for knee movement. In this variant you do not need to raise the legs high for mounting and can draw the seat underneath yourself and then sit. With a lower centre of gravity this tricycle feels more comfortable than the conventional ones. The lower sitting position places lesser burden on your back, shoulders, neck and wrists. The Maxi Comfort is available with a smaller, standard and extra high frame. Many people find this cycle easier to ride than a traditional tricycle. There are many options available, such as gear lever, backrest, footrests and an electric engine for power assist. Read everything about electric pedal support (Pedelec) for this bike.
If you choose an optional electric pedal assist, it will be delivered as a smart e-bike. It allows you to view a lot of information about your battery and smart e-bike from a distance. For example, you can use the app to view your cycling routes and change your cycling settings. Read more about the Van Raam smart e-bike on our Van Raam app page.
For all the options available on this bike, see our configurator or the pricelist of the Maxi Comfort.

Van Raam has its own electric pedal assist system, known as the Silent System. This system has been fully developed by Van Raam, specifically for the special needs bikes.
The backrest provides extra support when sitting on a Van Raam bicycle. The backrest support does not come with a belt, this can be ordered separately.
With a SmartGuard tyre it is almost impossible to get a flat tyre (when used correctly), thanks to the thicker tread of the tyre.

Van Raam has two types of low step through bikes in its range, a bike with two wheels and a tricycle. We give you 7 useful tips to help you buy a Van Raam bike with a low step through.
If you have experience with cycling on a normal bicycle, you should take into account that a tricycle cycles totally different. Small children or adults who have never ridden a tricycle before simply ride it. Adults have to get used to a completely different cycling behaviour. On the Van Raam website, we have listed the specific characteristics of each three-wheeler model. We advise you to find out for yourself which model you like best. If you want to try out a bike or if you have already bought a tricycle, we advise you to follow the instructions below.
