Reach Impairment

Reach Impairment

Some of our customers want to ride a bike but fear they are the wrong shape or size. That’s why we call ourselves “EveryBODY eBikes” – we can offer ideas and suggestions to get a bike to fit, no matter what your size.

With restrictions in reach, the concern is always around being able to control the operation of the bike safely. Restrictions may include but are not limited to:

  • Inability to safely engage brakes
  • Restrictions in range for steering
  • Discomfort from being in a poor postural position when riding

We can offer modifications to improve range and reach regardless of the underlying cause.

 Benefits:

  • Modified handlebars with a range of widths, heights and sweep angles
  • Adjustments to brakes using a range of options to improve grip for small hands, hands with missing digits including a smart-brake button operated brake feature
  • Adjustment to stem angle to bring the handlebars closer from the frame upwards
