BENUR VIARHONA: Electric assist tricycle without armchair transfer

The rhöna via Benur: access for all to via Rhona La ViaRhôna allows everyone to travel all or part of the road between Lake Geneva and the Mediterranean Sea, by bike. Today, this is not possible for people with reduced mobility because of the problems of access, mobility, offers and transfers. The project aims to offer an innovative service offer to anyone with reduced mobility in order to allow everyone to fully enjoy the cycle paths of ViaRhôna and the tourist attractions of the territory Benur is the first electric bike without wheelchair transfer! Handbikes are there! With the particularity that all models available on the market require to be able to transfer from wheelchair to bicycle. Benur is accessible directly by wheelchair. One climbs and descends easily, without the help of a third, as in a Roman tank. It is therefore a bicycle that can be used independently. On ViaRhona, Benur’s vocation is sharing. Bicycles available for people with reduced mobility.
