As a Zumba® Fitness instructor I find the Halfbike a superb workout combination. Riding a Halfbike is a bit strange and not really easy in the beginning but once you get used to it you'll never regret on purchasing one. Halfbike is every cent worth it. It's really - really - really FUN ! So for those who doesn't have one yet. Try the Halfbike. And you'll see :-) Thankful and so glad for this wonderful invention !!!

Super génial, une expérience ou les sensations sont décuplées, un design atypique au caractère sensationnel! Le halfbike c'est le top !

The ultimate biking experience. Challenging both your muscle and balance, while at the same time improving your creativity and awareness. All you need for a good start of the day is to take your Halfbike out for a ride. Things feel and look different afterwards!

I love the Halfbike because it's a fantastic combination of an upright bike and a scooter. You get a nice workout like a bike with the ease of storage like a scooter. It also works one's core/balance really well, which is a total bonus (though keep in mind it may take a few days to get the hang of it). Once you get rolling, it's smooth and swift sailing!

The halfbike has been a great experience. From receiving the package to building it to trying it out the first time to now being an ambassador to still learning it and getting used to it. It definitely is a new way of seeing the world somehow. It's like learning to bike or walk or balance all over again. Fun times ahead. Can't wait to be zipping around all over on this thing.

My Halfbike came in July 2017 and I was saving money ever since I saw the pre-order. During the long wait, I checked videos of how to ride. It is different from anything I had tried before. The learning curve is not that hard (I had prepared for something really) but it is so damn fun. It's a challenge and a new motor skill. After a few minutes, there was a click and I could grasp how the balance worked, even if I could still not do it and after a couple of days I could actually ride it. Now, I just step on it and pedal, and it is as natural as a bike. The balance, though, still offers daily subtle delightful improvement opportunities. We do get to try and trust our body, our instinct, and learn to rely on our sense of balance and ability to react. The halfbike itself is good quality, feels good, as you progress, you will start to use the 3 gears, if you chose that model, and love the humming of the gears. The halfbike team is great, their support is amazing, and they will treat you not as a number but as a person. This is a great product, made by good people.

Just amazing... you can't stop biking, although you're exhausted

For me to buy the Halfbike has been a punch of energy and joy. It lets me enjoy riding it and experience another way to do sport. At the same time, it makes me feel fit and happy. I meet people when I ride it and go to parks or around the cities. I visit different cities and it let me move quicker than walking as well as enjoying the ride and do sport. At the beginning it is a bit difficult and tiring because it depends very much of your balance on the Halfbike and your shape, but once you get it, the curves are very exciting and you get fit quickly without impact in your joints.

What started as a toy to play around on, for three days, turned out to be a complete game-changer and has become an essential piece of tool in my Ultra-Running training. After learning the basic skills in a parking basement, it was taken on a longer ride, to learn to master it in the daily rush-hour traffic in Copenhagen. First day went surprising well, and the distance was increased to +50km over the next couple of days. The biggest surprise was that it gave the exact same feeling in my body afterwards as the same distance covered in running would give me, but without the pounding to my joints and feet. The way you stand while riding it, the movement of the legs/feet are similar to the motion used while running. That was a year ago (Summer ’16), today it is incorporated in the training program as second to the running itself, and it is the single best contributor to developing endurance for multi-days Ultra-Running races without risking an overload or injury. The trips now range between 70-90km HalfBike after my running session, some days the running is skipped completely and it easily ends up with +100km on the HalfBike. A keeper for sure.

The halfbike is finely engineered, a wonderful alternative to more sitting after the office; but, more importantly, it's fun. Thanks also to the halfbike staff for answering questions and making the purchase and shipping smooth. SJG

Bonjour j ai un halfbike depuis presqu'un an. Je l'utilise quotidiennement pour me rendre a mon travail a paris, un trajet de 5 a 6 km ( velo, train, velo). C'est un bon moyen pour moi de faire du sport sur un petit nombres de km. Et en plus c'est fun. le halfbike suscite la la curiosité et provoque pas mal de rencontre. translation by google (sorry) Hello I have a halfbike since almost a year. I use it daily to go to my work in Paris, a journey of 5 to 6 km (bike, train, bike). This is a good way for me to do sport on a small number of kilometers. And it's fun too. The halfbike arouses the curiosity and allows quite a lot of encounter. dont forget to ride outside the box

Unique, amazingly fun, great workout, quality through and through, great conversation piece, and I could say more! My first attempt to ride my Halfbike I asked myself, "Can I really ride this?" At 70 years young it only took me 20 minutes to learn to ride. I have been riding my Halfbike for about 2 months now and you will never find me without full safety protection, even though I thankfully have never had to test it! If you like adventure and a good challange I highly recommend you give the Halfbike serious consideration! You will NOT be disappointed I assure you! Happy Halfbiking in your neighborhood! Aloha!

One of the most awesome things on this planet. It is good that you have 14 days to send the bike back, because you might seriously consider it. Resist that though, and give the bike a chance. Or even many, you will not regret it. After four days my biggest achievement with the halfbike was driving around 250 metres in a straight line, without falling. And after a 45-minute session I could barely walk, as the muscles needed to ride the halfbike are rarely used otherwise (unless you live on the top of the Eiffel tower). Anyway, I started to love it. That feeling when the bike is finally riding and I am able to control it is very rewarding and definitely makes up for a really steep learning curve. After a few weeks I am able to quite comfortably drive for around 4 kilometres - and it all comes naturally, without thinking. Despite that, I know that the halfbike is definitely not for everyone. You need a lot of motivation and will to want to learn it (and master it), but at least to me it is definitely worth every second spent with it. All the best, Miki

Makes old people's teeth fall out and kids scream with excitement as you fly by

Arctic ride - Done! I've been riding my Halfbike since Sep 15th 2016 on every week day 6 km total of commuting. Mostly paved and some gravel surfaces in all kinds of weather conditions from sunshine to heavy rain and lately also in frozen conditions i.e. below zero temperatures - real winter. All in all - frozen surfaces with fresh snow are too difficult I'd say down right impossible to ride. See pictures! Initially it took me good three quarters of an hour to ride the first 5 meters. Online tutorials were a valuable help. So a few details/ideas for you boys to ponder on: Front wheel (high guality brand) is ok, but I've had 4 punctures on rear wheels so far. There might be a need for improvement. Maybe rougher type for snow and gravel? Handlebar grips could be more of a rounded end type (I have worn off the original ones over the winter) You have added fenders - great - I'll order them right away! What about a larger gear ratio - a 7 speed hub? So my first summer with Halfbike is coming - I'm so excited ;-)

So much fun on a bike/trike... It biking 2.0 Love it, I need to ride it more, train harder and have more fun.

I've been riding my Halfbike for over a year now. Nothing like a riding a Halfbike to feel free, enjoy the open air, experience complete exercise, surprise everyone and feel balance. It is so difficult to describe what you feel when you Get It and all the movement flows in perfect coordination! You just have to feel it yourself. You will never regret having YOURS. The Kolenina Team completes the perfect experience with such an amazing Service. Congratulations!

As an aging runner, I bought my halfbike to take the abuse off my joints, while still being active and having fun. Great decision by me! Love my Halfbike. Vince, NY

I absolutely love my halfbike! The cardio workout is amazing and the core workout is unequalled!

I'm 47 and the coolest kid in town. ;) I love my Halfbike. It's pure fun and a great workout. People ask me where to buy one. Riding downhill is still a challenge for me. Kids are caling after me, "hey, that's cool, man!"
