Hello, I’ve been meaning to write for several months now:
“I have a 14″ fusion with hardware in my back and I need a walker to get around. I was frustrated with the comfort of traditional walkers and the limitations of only walking on sidewalks. I wanted to be able to go off-road and experience nature again. The Trionic walker is a miracle gift for me. I was in a wheelchair before my 2nd fusion surgery last March, 2010 and I started to build up my walking ability from that point forward. That is when the traditional walker failed me. With the Trionic I have been continuing to move forward; grass, gravel, dirt, mud and bison trails. I have hiked in Yellowstone off the beaten path, Colorado and of course here in Wisconsin. The reason I am writing is because people ask me about my machine EVERYWHERE; airports, doctors’ waiting rooms, on the trail, etc. I have to say that it is easy for me to talk positively to these folks about Trionic. I have pictures of the different places I have been if you are interested. I am on medical leave right now and in the process of transitioning into permanent disability. I love your product and I like sharing my experiences with other people who are interested in the walker! I am a violinist/orchestral director/teacher for my professional job”
Let us know if you want to talk further! Contact Trionic for my contact information.

Thinking of getting a Trionic. I have MS and currently using a rollator. Interested in being much more mobile this summer.
They are expensive and I want to be sure it “fits” before I purchase one.
Any input, positive or negative would be greatly appreciated.
Hi Nancy! Perhaps some of the comments on this page could help? http://www.trustpilot.co.uk/review/www.trionic.biz

Hi,
I bough a Trionic Veloped a while ago. The unit was shipped with a tire (hand) pump along. It was nice, but recently had a chance to use the pump, and I think it was poorly designed.
One end of the pump is the hand pump, the other end is a socket to attach to the air valve of the tires. This socket has two ends: One on top is the clap to tighten the tire air valve when the socket is connected, and the other is the holes that would cover onto the air valve of the tires. The clap in the vertical position will never has enough clearance when the pump connects to the air valve of the tires. If you have a pump right in front of you, and then try to pump air into a Veloped tire, you will see what I mean.
Hello Tien,
Thanks for choosing a Trionic Veloped!
I fully understand what you mean. Getting the pump to stay locked to the valve was indeed a problem when we still used inner tubes with a straight valve. But since 1 1/2 years we have changed to an angled valve (towards the outside), which gives plenty more clearance and now the pump stays firmly attached to the valve when pumping the tire.
May I ask where you purchased your Veloped? Can you please check the product label on the right rear frame tube, in order to see what serial number your Veloped has?
The issue you point out is really relevant, and we have addressed it at the beginning of 2011. But some dealers might still have earlier models in stock, and they are equipeed with the old inner tube.
Please send an e-mail to info@trionic.se and we’ll happily suggest how you can change to the better inner tubes with an angled valve!
Kind regards,
Stefan Kindberg

Hi Stefan,
I think I bought it from a place in the US, IL or MI state I could not remember. I think, like you said, they still have the old models in stock (I bought it in 2010, I beleive). Please shoot me an email so I can attach an invoice in the reply. I believe I still have the invoice. Righ now, I asked a REI pesonnel to pump air into it when trying to pump air into the tire of a Bob stroller, which had been bought earlier from REI. I think an easiest solution is to include an air “wire” between the pump and the valve of the tires. The air “wire” is flexible, therefore can be inserted to the valves and lock them.
