"SC-IOW"The model named. The frame is made of titanium, the grip width is about 42 cm, the crank length is 175 mm.


All parts such as chain, gear, brake, etc. are provided on the front wheel side.


Because you do not use it for driving only by keeping the leg stretched forward, even people using the wheelchair usually can ride. Also, even if a healthy person takes this posture, the center of gravity is lower than the general bicycle and stable running becomes possible.
