Meassures for user
- Seat width: 23 cm
- Seat depth: 24 cm
- Lower leg length: 25 cm
- Back height: 33 cm
Challenge There was a need for an electric vehicle with small dimensions, proper support and easy operation – for a growing body with limited muscle strength.
Solution
A child-sized ERGO2 seat (35 cm wide / 20–43 cm deep) was chosen. The low backrest height of 44 cm provided good support and freedom for the upper body. The seat width was adjusted. The footrest was raised by 5 cm to give the legs the correct length. The handlebar was lowered to the lowest position. The throttle was fitted in a version that suited the child's grip.
Result The boy got a safe and comfortable Mini Crosser with easy controls – and the opportunity to be where the action is. |
