Hello thanks you for the vidéo ! I am 55 years old from Nancy in France. I bought my halfbike since 1 month i love it. I have problem to turn but i can ride 15 kms 😊. I have to practice to turn, do you have some ideas to learn ?
Congratulations on your purchase! The only advice I can offer is to practice. As you progress, challenge yourself to sharper turns. Also, if you've already found your balance, lean your butt to the side you want to turn and the bike will follow. And finally, I found that when approaching a sharp turn or tough, uneven surface I lower my body a little, then the lower center of gravity results in more control. That's what worked for me, so as you find your own groove you'll discover what works best for you. Good luck, and have fun!
Hi Barbara. The Trikke, Me-Mover, and Halfbike are all different, even though they are all 3 wheel stand up bikes so they're hard to compare. I'd say though that the Halfbike works your core more because you are always maintaining balance. Out of the 3, I find the Halfbike is the most fun, the Me-Mover gives the most intense workout, and the Trikke works the arms and shoulders more than the others. I'd never part with any of them.
@@tomcase2837 thank you much for your input. Love my T8 but getting tires can be a challenge. My Me-mover is heavy so I have trouble/issues with getting it in and out of car. Seems like the halfbike is lighter and more portable, even though it has a challenging learning curve, it might work for me. Ease of transpiration to the trails bus really important to me. Appreciate your input. Thank you. Barbara
@@barbaramoy1680I'm glad you know about the learning curve, as you can see, you'll be jumping off many times in the beginning. Ask them if you can have a discount because you found my video, they know who I am.

Lovely challenge in a magnificent scenery!
Great demonstration. Thank you so much. How do you compare the halfbike to your Trikke T8?. I have a T8 sport

What's next, Tom? A 200 miler or 24hr ride? I wouldn't be surprised. I'm always cheering for you brother :-)
Thanks Claudio! Like you.. my mission is to have fun, so the next thing may be the addition of another unique bike.
