FAQ
1. What is the best tricycle?
We’d definitely go with any of the Schwinn models. Those are safe bets. Also, the Raleigh Tristar 3-speed trike is also good if you like some more speed variations. If your budget is rather tight, consider saving up for more or you can check the Iglobalbuy 6-speed trike to see if it suits your needs.
2. How much is a three-wheel bike?
Usually, you’ll find a three-wheel bike from over $200 to over $600 on the market today. The more expensive the product, the greater the support and comfort it has for the rider. Again, please don’t sacrifice quality for the price, especially when you’re buying a mobility device that could be with you for years. You get what you pay for.
3. What is a trike bike?
We’re sure you’re going to get this one in 3 seconds. When you’re ready, let’s count with us! Transporter with 1 wheel is called a unicycle, with 2 wheels is a bicycle (bike), and with 3 wheels is a … you’re right, a tricycle (trike).
Nika Helmer
the Schwinn Meridian 24 inch from Amazon — the review says it comes assembled ….. how can I get this assembled one (amazon does not say it is assembled) ????
Bam Ericson
Hello Nika, it does not look like the Schwinn Meridian 24″ comes assembled. Depending on where you live, you can use Amazon’s bike assembly service. However, if the service isn’t available in your area, you can attempt to assemble it yourself or have someone you know for help. From the reviews, it is rated well for assembly ease. You can also watch a video here that walks you through the process so you can figure out if it’s something you can do yourself. Let me know if you have any questions.
Jane T. Arrington
The Schwinn Meridian 24″ tricycle on Amazon says that it comes ready to assemble. Where’s the one that comes assembled like the one in the review?
