The makers of your Trikke Scooter recommend the following Safety Tips
About Safety Equipment:
Always wear industry approved safety equipment when riding your Trikke. Even under the most ideal circumstances, riding can be hazardous.
Wear athletic shoes, and do not ride barefoot or in sandals.
About your safety:
Always wear proper protective equipment when you ride your Trikke such as an industry approved helmet.
Pay special attention to where you are riding, your proximity to other people, and especially your proximity to cars if you are learning to ride on a street. .
About obstacles:
As with any wheeled sport, avoid water, bumps, gravel, sand, cracks or obstacles that may stop you suddenly or cause you to lose control.
About riding with one hand:
The Trikke requires that your ride with both hands holding the handlebars firmly at all times. Hands free riding can be hazardous.
About riding on wet surfaces:
Polyurethane wheels do not perform well on wet pavement or any other wet surface and riding the Trikke in any wet condition is not recommended. Polyurethane loses traction on most wet surfaces, and water on the wheels can dramatically reduce the effectiveness of the brakes.
About riding on hills:
The Trikke is designed for use on flat dry pavement. Do not ride on steep hills or do prolonged downhill rides during which the brakes are constantly applied. Prolonged use of the brakes for this purpose will rapidly wear out the polyurethane wheel and dramatically reduce the effectiveness of the brakes.
About the Front wheel:
If you have not already figured it out, the Trikke's front wheel is turned exactly 180 degrees to that of a bicycle. Unlike a bike, the Trikke front wheel actually trails behind the fork. Altering this wheel position will seriously compromise the performance of the Trikke.
Always inspect your Trikke before each ride for lose bolts and for proper brake function. Make sure that the steering tube clamp and folding mechanisms are locked in place before riding. Do not modify your Trikke.
Always wear proper protective equipment when you ride your Trikke such as an industry approved helmet.
Pay special attention to where you are riding, your proximity to other people, and especially your proximity to cars if you are learning to ride on a street. .
