Rifton New Large Adaptive Tricycle
Get outdoors, get active, with safety and support.
Kids (and adults!) should always have the opportunity to play outdoors and have some fun. The newly redisgned Rifton Tricycle gets riders outdoors for an experience with as little or as much assistance as they need. Regardless of function, independence is gained and social interaction happens naturally. Not to mention improvements in strength, balance, and neuromuscular feedback.
With its clever new design, the Rifton Tricycle takes into consideration the needs of every user. Easily adjustable and removable accessories help the rider fit when they’re in, and transfer off without worry. Leaving the whole experience as one they’ll want to have again and again, further improving physical and mental health.
The Large Rifton Trike accommodates riders with an inside leg length of 25”-38” (inches). The maximum weight for the Large is 310lbs . Please see the Size Guide for complete specifications on all 3 sizes. Need a smaller Trike? Consider the Medium Rifton Tricycle or Small Rifton Tricycle.
What’s not to love about getting a child outside and engaging in physical activity with their peers? We can’t get enough of this bike and the good it does for both rider and caregiver, alike.

TRIKE RIDING BENEFITS:
Improved Physical Health:
Adaptive bikes provide a low-impact, aerobic workout that can improve a special needs rider’s cardiovascular health and overall physical fitness. They also help with building strength, coordination, and balance.
Increased Independence:
Riding an adaptive bike gives special needs riders a sense of independence and freedom of movement that they may not experience with other mobility aids. It allows them to explore and engage with their environment in a way that can be empowering and confidence-building.
Social Interaction:
Riding an adaptive bike can be a great way for special needs riders to connect with their peers and engage in physical activities with others. This can help improve their social skills, self-esteem, and sense of belonging.
Therapeutic Benefits:
Adaptive bikes can also have therapeutic benefits for special needs riders. For example, riding a bike can be a form of sensory integration therapy, which can help special needs riders with sensory processing challenges to better regulate their sensory input and output.
Overall, the Rifton Trike can provide many physical, emotional, and social benefits for special needs riders and can help improve their overall quality of life.
TRIKE INCLUDES:
Headrests
The Rifton Trike offers optional adaptive headrests in four different styles: winged, contoured-adjustable, flat, and contoured-fixed. These headrests are designed to adjust both horizontally and vertically, allowing for optimal positioning based on the individual needs of the rider. They attach to the trunk support system tool-free, making it easy to adjust and customize the trike for each rider’s comfort and safety.
