What is a "handcycle"?
A handcycle is a type of cycle powered by the rider’s hands instead of their feet. It has a set of hand pedals connected to a chain, which drives the wheels forward. Handcycles are commonly used by individuals with limited or no use of their legs, providing a way to enjoy cycling for recreation, fitness, or competition. They come in different designs, including models for road use, off-road riding, and racing. Many handcycles have three wheels for stability, with the rider seated in a reclined or upright position, depending on the design.
