Without handles it requires balance that's for sure. I was told you could hold onto the seat as a type of handle. Apparently there are many ways to ride this thing.
I looked up the website on the new toy, and apparently there is no "born on/created date". There is a story about a child at an orphanange that got one of these a broken tricycle and he used it as it was. Maybe someone used that to re-create the tricycle. What do you think? Oh, and this is bigger than a normal tricycle. Lots bigger for bigger kids! LOL.
