Something a little different Cruzbike T,Trike

[neil earley]

Just came across this on youtube looks interesting and is a prototype e.g. no rear brake , lock out system, but looks fun to ride

Raptobike did something similar a couple of years ago ... though sadly, they are in difficulties, it seems

I always have doubts about power and steering on the same wheel .

And then I see the rear view and discovered that the rear wheels are attached to a crank and the steering section was previously a rear triangle. Then I got it. Cool.

Too High and to Unstable for my taste! Isn't she a bit to close to the pedals? looks a bit uncomfy

 

[neil earley]

look at RAAM she completed in record time on a Cruzbike Vendetta , its a HIGHRACER!! not meant to be stable as it tilts would be a good learning aid to adjust to a completely different type of bent, Currystomper on here as a Silvio and seems to be happy with his bike. Sometimes its good to think outside of the box.

Using the cranks to allow the trike to lean is an inspired bit of engineering! Looks odd from the side but seems to work just as well as the raptotrike effort. A lot cheaper too I'd guess.
