5. Operating Modes (5-in-1 Functionality)
The Liki Trike S5 transitions through five stages to accommodate your child's growth and development:
- Parent Mode (10 - 18 Months): Features a backrest, parent control bar, footrest, and canopy. The parent steers and controls the trike while the child is securely harnessed.
- Push Mode (18 - 24 Months): Similar to Parent Mode, but the child may begin to engage with the handlebars. The parent maintains control.
- Tricycle Mode (24 - 30 Months): The child can now use the pedals. The parent control bar can still be used for guidance.
- Bike Mode (30 - 36 Months): The parent control bar and backrest are removed, allowing the child to ride independently as a tricycle.
