Step 'n Go is a 3-wheel, step-action, self
balancing
cycle which combines gentle weight bearing aerobic exercise with the
excitement and fun of biking.
Step 'n Go eliminates the circular pedaling motion
(which can be difficult or impossible for many people) and replaces it with a
much easier and more natural up-and-down stepping action, more like walking
than cycling.
To propel the Step 'n Go, the rider shifts his weight
from one foot to the other. The patented treadle transmission converts any
movement into forward motion, no matter whether the strokes are short, long or
uneven. The treadles are linked, so that as one falls in the power stroke, the
other rises.
The Step 'n Go celebrates the best of universal
design, breaking down the barriers between able-bodied and disabled riders.
Many enlightened physical therapists and rehabilitation specialists now
recommend the Step 'n Go for therapeutic recreation programs to improve
co-ordination, balance and motor skills.
