Freedom Wheels

‘Everyone deserves the chance to ride a bike’

You are unique, and so is your Freedom Wheels bike.

The Freedom Wheels service provides customised cycling options that meet the individual needs of each rider. Freedom Wheels builds confidence, independence and improvement in health through bike-riding for riders of all ages and abilities.

Our aim is to provide bikes for people with disability. Freedom Wheels bikes are customised with removable and adjustable supports for people with disabilities. This allows for alterations as the person grows, gains confidence and skill. It also allows for easy transport and storage.

Supports may include:

• Stabilising wheels
• Postural supports
• Foot/pedal supports
• Carer assist for steering and braking supports
• And other customisable solutions to suit each riders needs

Freedom Wheels offers a range of bikes, giving everyone the opportunity to ride once again or for the first time.

Our Freedom Wheels bikes all include various features which are suitable for independent riders and riders who need more assistance. From a low step-through to free or fixed wheels, each bike is tailored to suit your or your client’s needs. Freedom Wheels also provides additional support for riders who can’t ride independently.

1. The Freedom Wheels process begins with an individual assessment by an occupational therapist or physiotherapist. This assessment identifies the physical and cognitive needs of each rider, and considers the environment and the goals of the individual and family.
2. A therapists will prescribe the most appropriate bike for the rider. They will also help identify appropriate funding options such as the NDIS, TAC, Variety – The Children’s Charity.
3. Once funding is approved, our technical team builds the bike.
4. Finally, the finished bike is reviewed by a therapist and then delivered – so you can start riding!
