We are now the proud owners of the trike you ordered for us. Stewart Wilson has been extremely helpful. We picked the trike up last Saturday and it has totally transformed Alistair's attitude to the outside world. He can't get enough of his bike. We have all been out cycling as a family (5 of us) and he asks to go out every night when he comes in from school.

As far as the trike goes, we were a bit worried about the height of the handle bars and Stewart had arranged to swap them for BMX ones, but after the weekend , we have decided to keep them as they are. Having watched him over several hours the longer handle bars force him to sit upright and keep his weight on the seat and therefore through it onto the back wheels. The trike is very stable and Alistair can handle it with ease. Despite it's length, it has a really tight turning circle. It's not too broad for the pavements so he has the security of riding alongsde us.

If anyone is considering buying the trike I would highly recommend it. It has given Alistair confidence beyond our expectations....not to mention popularity for having a really trendy bike!

Many Thanks Karin Lind

Dear Sir

We would like to write in praise of the 'BMX Trike' we bought from you in March. Our son Toby is 7 years old and severely autistic. He had outgrown his 2 Wheel bike and stabilizers and we were at a loss of how to keep him mobile.

We ordered the bike over the Internet and it was made and delivered within a week. The trike exceeded all our expectations - it is extremely sturdily made with plenty of growing room.

Toby is now able to ride his bike (accompanied by Dad, of course) to and from school and this elicits daily comments and enquiries from interested parents. We have had no hesitation in recommending your company. The trike in no way looks like a 'disabled bike' - one of the teachers at my son's special school described it as looking like an 'adult chopper' and my older son and his friends have given it a very high 'cool' factor! In fact, as soon as he gets off - they get on!!!!

The look of pure delight on Toby's face as he speeds around is priceless. Thank you so much for giving him this joy and independence. Yours Sincerely Peter & Gillian Barton

Dear Mission Cycles I thought I would let you know how I am doing with a recent purchase of your product. I wanted to maintain/kick start my weight loss by trying a new activity of cycling. Not having the confidence of two wheels I invested in your 24" model. It has given me a new lease of life and I have cycled all over London solo and on organised rides. I have lost some more weight and enjoyed the fact of doing it that way rather than in a tedious environment like a gym. I am beginning to master the gears procedure, road positioning (i.e. avoiding too much of a slope) and manoeuvring around people, obstructions such as bollards/cycle calming. Many people have enquired with me where I purchased it from etc and other comments of amazement to silliness. I pointed them to your website and the dealer that furnished me with the product. Thanks for designing a product that fulfils its objective and money well spent!!! Nigel Shepherdson
The Folding trike idea is a brilliant solution for us thank you!!! Joan and Malcolm Stockwell
I know how much independence means to my son and he still gets a trike that looks like something a 9 yr old boy would want to be seen on. We really didn’t have anything around here that would suit a pre teen boy the ones we found hear either looked like something a toddler would ride or looked like something his grandparents would ride. When he saw the 2o inch BMX trike on the computer he was so excited. Kept saying buy it buy it buy it So we could not say no .So he is definatly looking forward to getting it.

Hi Just wanted to let you know Katie, my husband and myself are all very happy with the bike we took delivery of in June, she loves it and if we get some better weather with actually get lots of use out of it this summer. Thank You very much for all your help. Lamp Lighters actually funded the bike and therefor I didn't get a copy of the receipt, it went direct to them. Please could you either post me a copy or email a copy of it to me for my own files. Thanks again, a very happy young lady and 2 happy foster carers. Louise Bloomer
Cycle arrived today grandson is delighted with it, thank you for such speedy delivery. Dawn Rogers
i bought your 12" bmx scooter for my six-year-old recently and it's awesome. every kid who sees it wants one, especially as it has brakes, and my boy won't get off it. it's sturdy, looks good, and balances well. i had to remove the stand after two days as it soon got bent away from the frame, but it's no great loss. well done! simon betteridge
Blame it on being the only child of an over-protective mother but I never learnt how to ride a bike when I was young. All my life it was something I thought about from time to time but lacked the nerve to try. When we moved to France a few years ago and found out we were living very near beautiful canal paths it seemed daft not to think again about riding a bike. Yet I still lacked the nerve to try and then one day I saw somewhere online about the modern trikes that one can buy these days. The idea germinated for quite a long time then my husband bought a bike and that spurred me on to pursue the buying of a trike. An expat thread recommended Mission Cycles and I looked at their website, found out they'd be only too happy to deal with people out of the UK and now we move to the next part of my story. I've just been out on my first ever ride on wheels not covered by a car. It was fantastic, exciting and very comfortable. Because I'm quite short I went for the 20” and it is just right. I cannot recommend Mission and their trikes highly enough. It seems amazing to me that at the age of 40+ I am doing this for the first time and I am so glad I took the plunge. Delivery took just three days (and that was with a bank holiday in between). If you've never ridden a bike before and feel nervous about the thought of it, just buy yourself a trike. Go on – do it!

Would just like to say that the 12" BMX scooter arrived two days after ordering it! So thank you very much! Impatient 8 year old very happy. This is an excellent scooter as she can use it on grass, so no more complaining about coming to walk the dog! Would recommend this scooter over a micro scooter anyday. Kind regards Kerry Mitchell
