Rider fit guidance: Confirm the rider’s height, inside-leg reach, flexibility and preferred saddle position against all listed measurements. The exceptionally low 20 cm step-over can reduce the leg lift required when mounting and dismounting.
Storage and transport guidance: Measure the intended vehicle, caravan or storage space before ordering. The R32 folds into a compact package, but its approximately 26.6 kg weight should also be considered when lifting it into a vehicle.
If you are uncertain about rider fit or transport requirements, call Trike Bike Australia on 07 5522 0583 before ordering.
Folding, Comfort and Everyday Use
The Di Blasi R32 is purpose-designed for riders who prioritise compact storage, transport and travel. Its coordinated folding system allows the frame, handlebars and wheels to fold into a compact package without requiring tools.
- Fully folding Italian design
- Folds and unfolds in approximately five seconds once familiar with the operation
- Compact folded dimensions of approximately 72 × 34 × 67 cm
- Very low 20 cm step-over height
- Adjustable saddle height
- Soft non-slip handgrips

Folding safety: Always ensure every folding joint, catch and locking mechanism is completely engaged before riding. Never ride the tricycle if a folding component is loose, damaged or not properly secured.
Riding safety: An adult tricycle does not ride or steer in the same way as a two-wheel bicycle. New riders should practise starting, braking, steering and cornering in a quiet, open area before riding near traffic or on shared paths.
Distribute cargo evenly, secure loose items and do not exceed the stated rider or basket capacities. Cargo can affect steering and braking performance.

Frequently Asked Questions
How small is the Di Blasi R32 when folded?
Its folded dimensions are approximately 72 cm long × 34 cm wide × 67 cm high, making it substantially more compact than most conventional adult tricycles.
How long does it take to fold?
Once familiar with the coordinated folding system, the R32 can fold or unfold in approximately five seconds without tools.
Will it fit inside my vehicle or caravan?
That depends on the vehicle opening and available internal space. Compare the approximately 72 × 34 × 67 cm folded dimensions with your vehicle or storage area before ordering.
Is the R32 easy to lift?
The pedal version weighs approximately 26.6 kg. Consider the user’s lifting ability and the height of the vehicle’s loading area. Some customers may require assistance or a suitable loading aid.
How many gears does it have?
The Di Blasi R32 has Shimano 6-speed gearing for easier starts and comfortable everyday riding.
What is the maximum rider capacity?
The stated maximum rider capacity is 100 kg.
Is this an electric tricycle?
No. The R32 is a pedal-powered folding tricycle. The Di Blasi R34 is the electric folding model.
Does a tricycle ride like a normal bicycle?
No. A tricycle does not need to be balanced while stationary, but its steering and cornering characteristics are different from a two-wheel bicycle. Practise progressively in a quiet, open area.
Does it have a parking brake?
Yes. The brake-lever parking function helps prevent the tricycle from rolling while it is parked.
How do I confirm the correct rider fit?
Compare the seat-height range, 20 cm step-over height, handlebar position and overall dimensions. If you are unsure, call 07 5522 0583 with the rider’s height, inside-leg measurement, flexibility, intended use and usual terrain.
Are spare parts and servicing support available?
Yes. Trike Bike Australia provides replacement parts, workshop services and telephone technical support for long-term ownership.
