Summary: never to old to learn 2010-07-02
Comment: the trikke is a really neat piece of equipment but I am an oldie so it has taken me a little longer to master and I live where there is very little level ground, so it is a bit harder to learn to ride, but I have found that sweet spot they describe and it is thrilling when that happens. I would encourage all to try the trikke, it is a great workout. I am glad I bought it and I will get better.

Summary: Fun, fun, fun! 2010-02-01
Comment: With free shipping, this is the best deal I've seen. Easy to assemble and their tech service is great. Took about a week to really get used to it. Now I'm having a lot of fun. Got tired or funning and walking so this is a great exercise gadget. Makes me feel like going out to Trikke often. Don't know if you'll loose weight that quickly but I feel my upper body has firmed up quite a bit. Almost 40 and enjoying life with my Trikke!

Summary: Terrible - I returned it 2010-01-09
Comment: I am very athletic male who has played sports my entire life. I grew up near the beach and spent years skate boarding and surfing. Given my athleticism, this product still did not work for me. I tried to get the hang of gaining momentum and speed without success. I even tried to on a concrete parking lot on a slight downhill grade. Still nothing. I returned the product. Also, when I opened the product there was a big note regarding the return of this product which was red flag #1. Then I called Trikke for technical assistance to see what I was doing wrong, the greeting again reference the return of the vehicle - red flag #2. I guess lots of people dont get it like I didnt and return this product. I have a hard time seeing anyone, but a real pro, being able to enjoy this product as they advertise on the infomercial. Buy a bike or another type of scooter.

Summary: Love My Trikke 2009-11-22
Comment: I received my trikke and had my husband help me put it together. I have been riding it now for 2 weeks and in all honesty you must be patient as it is a learned skill to figure out how to make it move. Once you find your sweet spot as they call it, it's a lot of fun! Not sure how much winter riding I'll get done in the New england winter but can't wait for spring.

Summary: You get what you pay for 2009-10-10
Comment: I purchased the other similar vehicle at "half the price" and had to send it back due missing parts, bad weld and overall poor quality. The other brand was such a disappointment, especially after waiting a month due to late delivery.

I purchased this one, got it out of the box and noted the significance in high quality. It came on time and I put it together in 10-min. I am 46 with bad knees and can not run anymore so this is one way I can keep up with my wife (a marathon runner) without provoking knee surgery. The riding motion is a bit awkward, similar to downhill snow skiing but works the core, legs and arms. Once you get use to it (10-15 min), its a lot fun. I look forward to short breaks where I can take it out (even for 5-min) and will be scootering with my kids and doing a longer ride this weekend. The T78-Deluxe (steel version) is only 2-lbs heavier than the T8-Air (aluminum) (25 vs 23 lbs), so at my level it is a better value. I would definitely buy this again.
