I gave up on this. As soon as you put one foot on one pedal, the halfbike tilts completely to one side. To gain the balance, you need to put both feet on both pedals at the same time but how can you you do that? So you need to have acrobat skills to ride the halfbike. I tried the Chinese version, not sure it is the same for other brands but don't think the halfbike has the stability and balance of a tricycle.

I have hesitated to write this because I keep thinking the halfbike will work out for me. I thought that because it has three wheels it would be better for somebody with terrible balance; it is not. The instructions for assembly are by video. For somebody who is not a visual thinker, the steps are not clear. I did not get the brake cable correctly connected because the thumb thingie was not in the right position when I threaded the wire through. Even for someone with great balance who has no trouble assembling it, it does not seem to serve any purpose that could not be better served by a scooter or bike.

So far, I have not been able to ride the Halfbike. It looked so easy on the videos, but obviously is very hard to do. I will keep trying, but might sell the Halfbike soon.

I wish oh as read the 1-star reviews before I bought it. It is just way too difficult to ride. I’ve ridden elliptigo, street strider, memover, and others and I just could never get this to work. I am hoping to return it because the time it took to build it and try it out was within 2 weeks. Waiting to hear back...

Hi, I was extremely excited to get this product. Your video was great and I was counting down the days to get my bike and start riding it. I just was surprised how hard it is to ride. I am athletic and in good shape but this is not something I could ride comfortably in public with cars and people on the road. I wish you gave a disclaimer how hard it was. Unfortunately it now sits collecting dust. I hope you can make a version easier to ride for the general public.

I’d ask for a refund if I could. It’s way too hard of a learning curve.

I'm sure this is a really cool way to get around--just not for me. It looked easier than it is, but I am past my prime and it would probably be a better fit if I knew how to skateboard or something like that. If I try this much more, I'm likely to break something :-) Would like to sell mine though--any way to facilitate those kinds of transactions would be of interest. It's brand new for the most part.

Hard to learn to ride than a regular bike.
