As a recumbent trike with hand cranks, the KETTWIESEL HANDBIKE makes pedal-free cycling possible – in all modes, from “sporty” to “relaxed.” SUPERB PEDAL-FREE CONTROL Experience the exhilaration of triking first-hand: the KETTWIESEL HANDBIKE is equipped with a specially developed steering assembly that serves as the “drive unit” with hand cranks, bottom bracket bearing, and chain. The adjustable leg supports offer comfortable stability and protection for the lower body. INTO THE SEAT WITH EASE The KETTWIESEL HANDBIKE has the perfect height for easy transfer from a wheelchair and won’t wobble when you’re getting into the seat. This exceptional stability can also be experienced when the wheels are turning – even at sporty speeds. THE RIGHT EQUIPMENT FOR CLIMBING Thanks to rear-wheel drive, the traction is so grippy that even uphill rides are fun, and the built-in Differential transfers the power from the chain to both rear wheels. Riders looking for even more luxury can add a powerful Heinzmann hub motor. EQUIPMENT HIGHLIGHTS Handlebar grips At your fingertips: As with most bikes, the HANDBIKE’s shifters and brake levers are mounted to the handlebar grips. The only difference is that these grips also function as hand pedals. Sounds a lot like multitasking, but the controls are actually very easy to learn. Hand cranks The hand cranks are available in two different sizes: 174 and 150 millimeter. This makes it possible to adapt the HANDBIKE to the rider for perfect ergonomics. Flexible drive unit The hand-crank assembly is intelligently designed: Its position can be adjusted to the rider’s size and preferences by moving the support bar.
