At Rifton, we believe every child deserves to experience the joy of riding. Our adaptive tricycle is more than fun— it’s a tool for growth, inclusion, and movement. Whether for school, therapy, or home, this special needs tricycle is designed to make independent mobility possible for children and teens who can’t use a standard bike.
Riding builds strength, balance, and confidence. And for many children with disabilities, such as limited mobility, an adaptive bike is a medically necessary device, not just a recreational extra.
We’ve seen the therapeutic benefits of special needs bikes. Cycling improves:
With over 40 years of experience, the Rifton adaptive trike has been reimagined to meet the highest standards of accessibility, safety, and adjustability.

To ensure the best fit, select from our three sizes based on the rider's leg length. Their extended legs should reach the pedals comfortably from when both feet and torso are strapped into place.
Note: The user's weight must not exceed the maximum working load. Adaptive Tricycles are not intended for clients with strong reflexes, poorly developed trunk balance, or poor head control.
The client’s extended leg should reach comfortably from seat to pedal when both feet and torso are strapped into place.
