Outing Highlights
Brake, Freewheel and Reverse — the BFR Advantage
The BERG Buddy’s BFR system lets riders brake with the pedals, freewheel and reverse immediately after stopping, making low‑speed maneuvers and direction changes intuitive.
Adjustable Seat for Growing Riders
The seat adjusts to three positions so riders can reach the pedals comfortably as they grow, keeping posture and pedaling efficient throughout the rental period.
Four Wheels, Swing Axle and Pneumatic Tires
Stability comes from four wheels and a swing axle that cushions small surface changes, while pneumatic tires reduce rolling resistance for a smoother, faster‑feeling ride.

The adjustable seating and cushioned front axle translate minor pavement imperfections into an easy, steady ride that invites repeat laps around Costanoa’s paved loops.
