A trike, short for tricycle, is a three-wheeled vehicle designed for stability and ease of use. Trikes can be powered by pedaling, like traditional bicycles, or by a motor, as seen in some electric models. They are popular among children for play and learning balance, as well as adults who may have difficulty riding a two-wheeled bike. Trikes come in various styles, including recumbent trikes for comfort and cargo trikes for transporting goods. They are often used for recreational purposes, commuting, or even in some cases, as a mobility aid for individuals with disabilities.
