What are hand bikes and handcycles?
A handbike and a handcycle are both synonyms of a cycling sport that is popular with those with limited use of their legs. It requires the biker to cycle with their hands rather than their legs. This product was invented in the 1980s and has been used for recreation, fitness, and competitions. Handcycles differentiate themselves from classical bikes by having 3 wheels compared to the traditional 2 wheels on a bicycle.
There have been many new models of hand cycles since their invention, with new technology and abilities pushing performances. Today, the advancement in technology has made handcycling a popular sport for both leisure seekers and competitive athletes.
