Tricks is a bicycle for children aged between five and eight years of age, which the user puts together like a toy.

Tricks is a compound word composed from “triangle” and “bricks”. Tricks is a bicycle for children that involves the child in its construction. Slide-on joint components make
for a regular and simple connection of the triangular parts, which can form a number of vehicle types – for example, a recumbent bike (ridden in a lying-back position) or a kick scooter. The yellow part functions as rear wheel, with a saddle incorporated. The blue part has a variable position. The green part has the pedals, handle and a wheel. Two front-wheels bring stability and control direction. Encouraging both creativity and fun, Tricks is
both a functional machine and a toy.
