AmTryke Therapeutic Tricycle Waiver Form (Must be filled out completely by adult rider or parent/guardian) AMBUCS members nationwide are dedicated to creating opportunities for mobility and independence for people with disabilities by providing AmTryke therapeutic tricycles, offering educational scholarships to therapy students and performing various forms of community service. Purpose: Steering: The AmTryke therapeutic tricycle was designed for people with disabilities. It creates a feeling of freedom, builds self-esteem, strengthens muscles and improves motor coordination and rage of motion all while making exercise fun. Initially, the rider may have difficulty turning or changing directions. Encourage the rider to go straight ahead, back up and slowly turn around. There are three steering options for the AmTryke. On the front column of the tricycle you will find two holes for the steering pin. The top hole is straight steering, the bottom hole allows a 20 degree turning radius. Safety Cautions Fast speeds and sharp turns can cause the AmTryke therapeutic tricycle to tip or turn over. Always wear a helmet when riding an AmTryke. Use of other protective gear is highly recommended. Adult supervision required if used by younger riders. Use caution near vehicles, swimming pools and other bodies of water, hills, alleys and sloped driveways. Always wear shoes. Never allow more than one rider. Use of the steering pin is recommended to prevent over-steering or possible tip-overs.

Thanks for choosing an AmTryke therapeutic tricycle! In order to accommodate the widest variety of people and disabilities, AmTryke offers many tryke models and each can be customized in a variety of ways. Following the steps below will help you choose to the perfect tryke for your client from what might seem like a dizzying array of options. Remember you can always refer to our website, www.amtrykestore.com, or the AmTryke catalogue for more information and product images. Step 1: Fill out the first page of the AmTryke Assessment form. Step 2: Choose the way the tryke will be propelled and choose from the trykes available in that category. AmTrykes can be propelled in three ways: Hand Foot, Foot, or Hand. Your choice should be based on the rider s ability and therapy goals. Hand Foot trykes improve coordination, strength and range of motion. Using all four extremities helps with weakness in any area, even general weakness, and can positively affect tone. Foot trykes were developed in response to requests from therapists for a traditional tricycle for riders with special needs. Hand trykes are for those who cannot perform and/or tolerate full foot or hip rotation. Step 3: Take rider s measurements from the Assessment form you filled out and compare them to our Sizing Chart. (This will narrow the choices considerably) Step 4: Choose a drive. (If it doesn t mention a choice, then ignore this step.) AmTrykes come with two drive possibilities: Positive Fixed and Gear. Tryke models have been carefully designed so the drive matches the therapeutic goals of the equipment; therefore all drives are not available on all trykes. A positive fixed drive, otherwise known as a fixie, helps individuals who might otherwise have problems making a full pedal rotation. The foot crank is constantly in motion for full therapeutic effect. Coasting is not possible with a positive drive; when limb motion stops, the bike does as well. Gears riders must be able to make a complete pedal rotation on their own. This tryke is suitable for riders who need help with balance and a stable sitting position but who have the cognitive ability to steer successfully and apply the coaster brake or hand brake. The key feature of gears is the ability to coast. Step 5: Chose any adaptations and/or accessories needed by the rider. Each tryke model can only be customized in the ways noted in its own model section in the following document or with the generic accessories listed below. If a customization option is not listed, it is because of design or other practical constraints in offering it on a particular model.
