A wheelchair bike consists of two parts: one part bicycle, one part wheelchair. They are connected to form a wheelchair bike. While on the go, they can be easily separated so that, for example, you can then visit a store in the wheelchair. Usually, the wheelchair is attached to the front, and the bike’s handlebars also steer the wheelchair.

Wheelchair bikes expand your range for outings, because after the ride, you can stop at a restaurant without even having to transfer the wheelchair user.

Important to know before buying: Wheelchair bikes are available as standard bikes or as e-bikes. Depending on the weight of the wheelchair user, an e-bike may be a good option. In terms of maneuverability, wheelchair bikes are comparable to cargo bikes, meaning they’re best suited for flat terrain and less suitable for off-road use.
