Boy with Amputations Gets Special Bicycle Gift
Kyle Romano, seven, born healthy but later amputated arms and legs due to meningococcemia, receives an eight month University of South Florida College of Engineering project bike. The tricycle uses torso power and arm stubs to steer and brake, enabling him to ride with friends.
Specially Designed Bike Lets Kyle Ride Despite Disability
Kyle Romano requires a customized bicycle because he has no arms. The tricycle is backward looking with two wheels in front and one in back. He moves forward by pushing his chest against a bar and rocking. Answers will vary. Engineers had to solve how Kyle would move the bike and ensure safety before building. Eleven university students worked on the bike, and Kyle expects his friends to be happy when they see it. Answers will vary. It is crucial for the 7-year-old to ride with friends to participate and enjoy peers.
