Is that actually available for purchase? I'm really interested in buying a trike for my mom. She never learned to ride a bike and now in her later years would like to know what it feels like to ride one. She's retired and would love a new hobby! I guess I've inspired her

The pic links to this site: http://www.seniorenland.com/ But it's not in English so I couldn't find the trike.

Ahh .... thank you anyway!

Trikes aren't that hard to get. I saw one last week at a flea market. I've also seen them being assembled at my bike shop for industrial use.

This one is pretty:

we bought my mother a trike when she decided 2 wheeled bikes were too scary.
then she decided that trikes were too heavy.

I question the angle of the bars though, looks uncomfortable. One could always level it a little more.

I'm kinda partial to Easy Racer bikes (I ride a Ti-Rush), but they are getting more and more into the trikes now too. Here is a link to their website and their trikes. If we had room to store one, I'd have a trike too. They are so much fun to ride.

in their menu on the left, the links are under "Bikes we design - tricycles"

I just saw a woman riding a bike kind of like this one last night! It was actually really cute, she was on this trike with what looked like grocery bags in the basket. She had three kids following her on their bikes. All of the bikes were bright blue. It was like a momma duck and her babies crossing the street!

(too bad none of them were wearing helmets and they were riding the wrong direction on the sidewalk... )
