Recumbent Trikes Unchained-The CIXI E-Assist System Changes Everything!

Nothing short of a revolution in electric assisted trikes is on the way before the end of 2025! We've talked about the French CIXI system in the past (most recently in our interview with their engineers at Spezi 2025) but now they are being implemented on trikes from ICE, HASE and maybe more. These trikes will have no chain, chainrings, chain tubes, idler wheels, derailleurs, cassettes, shifters or shifter cables. Let that sink in...On this webcast we interview Pierre Francis from CIXI. He is the co-founder and CEO who is excited to explain the PERS system in detail, talk about the early recumbent trike adopters and gives us a tour of the company's headquarters in the French Alps. Pierre also shows us the Vigoz their prototype car replacement vehicle which can pedal up to 120 KPH.Next we talk directly to the good folks at ICE Trikes to check in on their progress at creating  a completely new type of e-assist for their trikes. GM Adrian Davies, Marketing Director Phil Zschiesche and Product Designer Euan Crowder join us for a close look at the CIXI PERS ICE Trike coming this year.We also talk about HASE's two prototypes of the CIXI system as described by CEO Marec Hase. One of these even boasted two hub motors in the rear!00:00:00  Intro00:00:45  What's on Today's Show00:01:44  Panel Introduction00:04:15  Sponsor Introduction00:07:25  Honza Galla with Recumbent News00:12:15  CIXI PERS Pedal Generator System with CEO PierreFrancis01:01:30  ICE Trikes Implements CIXI System with GM Adrian Davies plus Phil and Euan01:28:20  HASE Bikes Experience with the CIXI System01:34:40  AZUB's Honza Galla talks about where they are with pedal generator systems  01:36:22  Steintrike's Victor Horvatski shares their progress with the CIXI System01:37:40  Trident Trike's Tom Flohr updates us on their version of the pedal generator system01:39:12  Viewer Submissions-John Gunterman ascends Mt.

Florida in February is not a bad place to visit! When general manager Mark Egeland invited us to tour the factory floor of Catrike in Orlando last fall at Cycle-Con we jumped at the opportunity. Tray and I were given free range to roam the facility and interview anyone we wished. This was during their "Factory Event" so we got to see lots of Catrike owners and hear from Founder Paulo Camasmie as well. We follow the progress a new trike would take right down the production line from welding to painting to packaging and interview the team at their individual stations along the way. I think you'll find the process fascinating. The Big Honkin' Trike Rally was becoming an annual pilgrimage for bent riders across the country when the powers that be threw a liability wrench into the organizer's plans this year. Not to be beaten, they pivoted to a more open source approach and turned this into an informal BBQ and ride format along the Withlacootchee trail in Inverness, Florida this year. We attended the BBQ, met many of the trikers and interviewed Gay Ormiston Bradford who has been involved from the start.If you're looking for advice on unraveling the many trike choices available both electric and not-look no further! Andrew and Gary from Trailside Trike in Floral City, Florida show us 10 models they rolled out behind the bike shop right along the trail. You'll get their expert opinion on the pros and cons of various Catrike, Greenspeed, Terratrike, Trident and AZUB units for your consideration.00:00:00  Intro00:00:51  What's on Today's Show00:02:45  Panel Introduction00:04:50  Sponsor Introduction00:07:17  Recumbent News with Honza Galla00:09:45  Catrike Factory Tour Event 202400:50:15  Discussion Peter, Honza, Tray, Larry and Gary01:10:20  Big Honkin' Trike BBQ and riding on the Withlacoochee Trail in Florida01:16:05  Evaluating 5 e-assisted and 5 non assisted trikes at Trailside Trikes01:30:25  Sponsor Thanks01:33:00  Announcements01:35:40  Goodbye to panel and crewPlease subscribe to us on YouTube (https://goo.gl/CHOOgX) and Like us on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/laidbackbikereport/) if you haven't already done so. Lot's more info and you can also buy a hat on our website: https://www.laidbackbikereport.com/.We would love to have you as a Patreon Patron where you can support all we do for as little as $1/month.

India's changing EV landscape: from low-speed e-bikes to ‘reverse trikes' for ride hailing

Forbes India Daily Tech Brief Podcast

India's EV landscape is changing, with startups emerging across the value chain – from all-electric cabs to e-bikes and innovative purchase options. But first, some headlines: Facebook and Instagram's parent company Meta Platforms knowingly employed methods that lured children on to these platforms, The New York Times reported on Nov. 25, citing un-redacted court documents from a federal lawsuit in the US, filed last month by California, Colorado and 31 other states in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California. Apple contract manufacturer Foxconn Technology will invest more than $1.5 billion in an Indian construction project to fulfill “operational needs,” CNBC reports, citing company filings in Taiwan yesterday. Tata Consultancy Services has launched its AWS generative AI practice, with an extensive catalog of use-cases for the technology, the company said in a press release yesterday. One thing today India's consumer EV landscape is changing. Startups are emerging offering new products like e-bikes and slow-speed scooters that don't require users to obtain a driving licence, and new purchase options are also being innovated to reduce the upfront cost of these vehicles to make them more competitive with their petrol burning counterparts. Yulu Bikes, for example, has started directly selling a consumer version of its low-speed moped Miracle, which it calls Yulu Wynn and which is being manufactured by Bajaj Auto. With a top speed of only 25kmph, one doesn't need a license to use this scooter on Indian roads.  Yulu Wynn costs about Rs. 55,000 to buy, and then you will also have to sign up for one of Yulu's subscription plans to use the scooter. The purchase price doesn't include the battery or the software, which are included in the subscription plans, and you get access to the company's Yuma battery swapping network.  This is similar to how Ather Energy or Tata Nexon users pay to use premium features on those vehicles, Amit Gupta, Yulu's co-founder and CEO told me recently. And you can find that detailed conversation on Forbes India's website.  Kunal Khattar, a prolific VC investor in the EV space, points out that if we find ways to take out the cost of the battery, then that's practically half the cost of the electric vehicle. So models more like Yulu's will surely emerge, where a bank might finance the battery and the consumer gets an affordable subscription plan. Yesterday, TechCrunch reported that EMotorad Ventures, an electric bicycle maker in Pune, has raised $20 million in a Series B round. EMotorad's electric bicycle models feature self-diagnostics, removable batteries, dual disc brakes, portable chargers, and retractable aluminum frames.  TechCrunch reports that the company offers a 48-hour resolution of customer complaints. Founded in 2020 by Kunal Gupta, Rajib Gangopadhyay, Aditya Oza and Sumedh Battewar, EMotorad today exports its e-bikes to more than 18 countries through white labeling and selling its own brand in the US, Europe, Australia, Japan, and some Middle Eastern markets. Of its 14 e-bike models, seven or eight are available in India and the rest are sold overseas, priced between $600 to $1,200 in the US, according to TechCrunch. Emotorad has raised more than $22.5 million in total funding, from investors including Singapore's Panthera Growth Partners, Alteria Capital, xto10x Technologies, and Green Frontier Capital. Economic Times reported yesterday that Gensol will make electric “reverse trikes,” which have two wheels in the front and one in the back, starting February, citing co-founder Anmol Singh Jaggi, who is also the managing director of Gensol, a solar engineering procurement and construction company. Jaggi expects to soon start production at a factory in Chakan, India's biggest auto manufacturing hub, with capacity to turn out 30,000 vehicles. So cheaper Blusmart rides may be on offer next year.

¡Os lo advierto! ¡Quedáis avisados! El guión de este video no lo ha escrito un periodista con años de experiencia, mesurada opinión y director de una revista y una página Web. ¡No! Este vídeo lo ha escrito un simple aficionado nada mesurado y sin filtro… Piénsatelo antes de verlo… Hay muchos tipos de motos de tres ruedas: con dos delante, con dos detrás, que se inclinan, que no se inclinan, con la tercera rueda en el lateral… no sé si me olvido de alguna. Y para mi todas, absolutamente todas, tienen una cosa en común. No son motos. Y no digo que sean buenas o malas o no tengan ventajas o inconvenientes, simplemente digo que no son motos. Hay que reconocer que todas tienen otras cosas en común: Tienen manillar de moto y, al menos el conductor, va a cuerpo gentil, al albur de la inclemencias del tiempo. En eso sí se parecen a las motos. Sidecar. Comenzamos con los Sidecar. Rodrigo dirá “saidcar” y en España se dice “Seicar”… así somos os españoles. Las nuevas generaciones lo cambiaran, mi hijo es bilingüe… pero de momento para la mayoría son “seicar”. Y de todo lo que vamos a ver hoy, lo más parecido a una moto, aunque no se inclinen. Porque un sidecar de verdad es una moto a la que se acopla en “sidecar”, el cochecito lateral que da nombre al montaje. Es auténtico si es una pieza aparte que se acopla a la moto, y no está diseñado para ser un “sidecar”. Para mí, y con este concepto, los de competición, que me llaman la atención y me alucinan, no son verdaderos sidecar. ¿Cómo nacen? Muy sencillo. Mi tío tuvo uno. Se compró una moto y cuando tuvo el segundo hijo, le acopló un sidecar con el que anduvo, hasta con cuatro hijos, hasta que pudo comprarse un coche. Otra cosa eran las BMW militares y semejantes que si tenían tracción y freno en esa rueda. Lo cual ayudaba mucho. Falsos “sidecars” Y hora vamos con lo que yo llamo “falsos sidecar”. En Pingüinos vi muchos de estos, sobre todo Zeus franceses. Parecen sidecar pero no lo son, porque, aunque lleve en una rueda en el lateral, están diseñados como vehículo de tres ruedas y la mayoría lleva motor de coche que va detrás y el sidecar es cubierto… para mí un quiero y no puedo. Triciclos. Hablemos de los “triciclos”. Se podría decir que todos son Scooter, pero legalmente en España, tienen la consideración de triciclos. Técnicamente están en la categoría L5e. ¿Y esto que supone? Pues, para mí, una trampa legal. ¿Por qué? Porque con carné de coche puedes conducir scooter hasta 125 cm3, pero como estos son triciclos pueden ser conducidos con el permiso B hasta los 500 cm3, sin necesitar carnet de moto. Pero se conducen como una moto, porque se inclinan igual. Sin duda tienen cierta ventajas sobre mojado o firme irregular, sobre todo en esa fase tan critica de entrar en curva frenando. Al fin y al cabo tiene el doble de ruedas delante. A cambio son más caros, más pesados y menos ágiles… no se puede tener todo. Motos de 3 ruedas. ¿Motos de 3 ruedas? Una contradicción como lo de “envidia sana”. ¡Si es envidia no es sana y si es moto, no puede tener tres ruedas! Pero en este apartado acabamos rápido, porque solo hay un modelo: La Yamaha Niken. La única moto de 3 ruedas que se inclina como una moto de 2. Solo os voy a dar un dato: Hasta donde sé, Yamaha no pone fácil saber cuándo pesa, que pesa nada menos 270 kg. Y es que solo hay que ver ese tren delantero: Todo es doble. Lo cierto es que lo que tienen esa moto y he hablado con ellos, están encantados. En Pingüinos un propietario me dijo que antes cuando llovía no sacaba la moto y ahora, son la Niken, sí. Pues dicho queda. Las “otras” motos de 3 ruedas. Pero hay otras motos de 3 ruedas, con dos de ellas delante y una detrás y que no se inclinan. La marca más conocida son las Can-Am. Para mi tienen todas las desventajas de la moto y todas las de un coche. Vas a cuerpo gentil, te puedes caer, si llueve te mojas… pero no puedes inclinar, no son tan ágiles ni tan estrechas. Se llevan como una moto de nieve, la moto no se inclina, pero tú si debes inclinar. Bueno, tiene su encanto y la ventaja de que el peso de la moto y tu altura no son ningún inconveniente. Lo cierto es que lo he probado alguna vez, me gustan y me parecen divertidos pero… prefiero una moto. Trikes Y hay que hablar de Trikes. Una vez que los de off road desaparecieron por su inseguridad, los únicos que existen son los grandes Trikes de asfalto, la mayor parte de las veces con inspiración Custom. A ver, como artefacto para pasear por zonas de buen clima y si es de ambiente playero mejor, pueden tener su encanto. Desde luego, no me verás subido en uno de ellos. Por nada del Mundo. Conclusión Siempre digo una cosa: La afición de las motos, la gente aficionada a las motos es buena gente. Da igual que sea en un G.P. por la carretera o en una concentración: Todos los que van en moto pertenecen a la gran familia de la moto. No hay afición más inclusiva.

Allan Gray joins the Smart City Podcast to discuss low cost low impact transportation solutions, as well as a variety of other topics, including supercapacitors.  Listeners will learn about: · What's happening in the Philippines right now. · How mobile battery backup can help keep critical operations running during grid outages. · How do solar and electric vehicle technologies fit into the Filipino energy and public transport sectors and what kinds of obstacles do they face? · The current state of the solar industry? · What's been the perspective of the different stakeholders of these communities about electric vehicles? · What do you do if you're a city manager or a citizen activist?  About sunETrike:  The sunEtrike solar electric transport solution handles the vehicles, batteries and solar as distinct units for planning & scaling. The pilot shuttle service mentioned in this episode achieved its targetted ROI of 30% before being shut down by the Coved pandemic and end of contract.  These low-speed electric tricycles are best suited to last mile transportation of people and cargo. They have capacity to carry up to seven passengers or 500 kg of freight, with top operating speeds of 50 km/h. The trikes can travel approximately 40 km per battery charge, depending on weight and hills.  At its peak, our pilot was running 220 to 250 km per day.  The Supercapacitor/HESS project was spun into a new company (Hessner) upon admission into the Hong Kong Science and Technology Park's Incubation Program in 2020 Want to be a guest on our podcast?

Unspoken Rules of the Road

Ok, I'm going to switch gears this week, literally and talk about the Unspoken Rules of the Road. If you all have been listening to my Podcast you should have learned that I've been riding a motorcycle since I was 9 years old.  Most of the early years was dirt bike riding, but when I got my license at age 16, my dad let me drive my mom's Honda 500 with a stationery fairing.  After teaching me a few rules of his road - like wear a Lid (which is a helmet) wear the proper gear, never ride after dark, always make sure you're flat footed, always be alert and make sure when you're crossing through an intersection with a car at a stop sign – be sure to watch the wheels of the car and not the person in the car, dad allowed me to go downtown and pick up Sheila and we'd scoop the loop for hours downtown.  Sheila was my first bitch ever!  Bitch today – mean's passenger and it's usually a female although I have seen male bitches!  I'd always have to be home before dusk – because riding at dusk or after dark was an absolute NO because the DEER in Iowa are huge and will definitely kill you.  Even today, I have to stop and think twice about riding after dusk. Needless to say, that over the years I've put a lot of miles under this ass, and I believe I'm very qualified to help those less experienced bikers with the unspoken rules of the road. For the sake of this podcast, let's assume that before you just went and took the motorcycle course that you actually have riding experience. I think I gave you a great example in an earlier podcast that just because you want to “ride” a bike – doesn't mean you know how to ride. Taking the taking the motorcycle course wasn't designed to teach you how to ride – it's to prove you have the knowledge and skill on a bike to get your license. So, please for the sake of yourself and others – go ride a dirt bike, ride out in the country away from traffic and gain the riding experience first!  I've always told people there are 3 components when you're first learning to ride. Gain experience – I know a lot of people that practice in parking lots.  The biggest fear everyone has are going around curves!  Practice sharp turns! Practice, practice, practice.  I know a female that had just got her license and because she was “trying to stay up with the rest of the group after just getting her license” – she hit a car in a sharp turn and ended up in the swamp!  She lived and her brand-new bike had serious water damage! Know how to handle your bike without thinking about it.  Don't get the clutch and front brake mixed up or you'll end up going over the top of your bike.  I saw a guy do this at 20mph and he was pretty beat up at just 20 mph.  Luckily, he had on leather! Once you've mastered those above – now insert cagers (traffic – cars, trucks and other vehicles) by getting out on the road.  This takes riding to a whole new level!  Your skill needs to be such that you do not have to look at your bike to operate it. You are now focused on everything around you.  You are constantly scanning and watching out for yourself.  You do NOT want to be figuring out what to do with your bike when the guy in front of you just slammed on his brakes. Your eyes should be focused away from your bike.  You need the ability to react without thinking about your hands need to do!   Now that you've got the experience and your license, here are the basics I've learned from my dad and from riding throughout the years.   1).  First and foremost, bikers are family – being a biker, you belong to a group of people that not many understand or take the time to understand.  Bikers get a bad name because we look tough decked out in leather and we seem non-approachable.  Did you know bikers come in all shapes, sizes and different professions?  I was in IT for 25 years.  I have friends that are Doctors, nurses, truck drivers, Correctional Officers, Lawyers, Police Officers, self-employed business owners, farmers, musicians, Developers and the list goes on. There's also a difference between motorcyclists, Squids and Bikers. Motorcyclists – just a buy a bike, may ride with a Hawaiian shirt with flip flops Squid – (Stupidly Quick, Underdressed, Imminently Dead) Overconfident rider underestimating their riding skills. Biker – Is a way of life 2).  What to wear and what not to wear!  This was a big one for my dad. ALWAYS wear a helmet, riding jeans and boots.  Helmet's today are not required in all states and its typically your choice if you want to wear one.  Riders always carry gear with them for the environment you're riding in.  Heat, cold, rain, snow – you'll need gear for all three if you ever head to Sturgis, Colorado or Laconia. Jeans/Chaps pants - Wearing anything less than something that does not cover your whole leg will cause you pain!  I don't care how hot it is out, jeans/chaps are a must!  Just getting hit with a bug on your leg wearing jeans causes enough pain for you to react, when you react you could cause an accident.  Have you ever seen road rash? If you go down, guess what part of your body takes the brunt besides your head? Your legs?  If you're wearing shorts you have absolutely no protection! Boots – And I don't mean stilettos for your ladies – I'm talking flat footed rubber soled or leather soled boots.  Boots are used for two things – protecting your feet and your footing.  Ladies if you're wearing stilettos and your foot falls off the peddle and gets caught on the peddle, now your whole body moves forward, and you lose your grip on the handlebars.  This causes you to take your eyes off the road or the biker in front you and now you've just caused an accident due to not wearing the proper gear.  I've seen this happen! Same goes for you flip flop wearers.  When your flip flop falls off or gets stuck on the foot peg – you to take your eyes off the road and create an accident.   When I see this – I know you're a RUB – Rich Urban Biker – or an inexperienced rider and you've just rented a bike just so you can SAY you went to Sturgis.  Bikers unlike motorcyclists dress the part because we want to be safe.  I watched a guy in flip flops attempt to back his bike up into a spot – First, he must have never parallel parked a car – because he didn't know how to back up a biker either – his flip flop got caught on his foot-peg and over he went.  Good thing he didn't make it into the parking spot because he would have caused the domino effect with the other bikes that were lined up.  Which leads me to another rule. 3).  Never touch another biker's bike – You can bet the owner is nearby and his eye is on his bike.  Bikers are respectful until they've been disrespected.  And when one biker has been disrespected the whole group will follow. Bikers respect all people and in general will not cause problems. 4).  Never leave a biker behind – This one is very personal to me.  Let's be clear on this definition.   1). If you see a biker on the side of the road and he appears to be having issues with his bike or maybe he's not feeling well whether you are on your bike or not (you're still a biker) – you always stop to offer him assistance.  Maybe he needs to phone a friend and he doesn't have a phone.  Maybe he needs towed somewhere and you have a trailer and offer to help him. It doesn't matter what it is, and it doesn't matter what he's riding either.  Shoot I'd stop for a moped!  He's on two wheels!  Bikers are family!  2).  If you're riding with a group of 10 and you all have pulled over to do some sightseeing and you agree to be back at the bikes by 4pm and then leave.  That means that at 4pm all 10 bikers need to be back at the bikes.  If one or two are missing – you call them, look for them – do everything possible to locate them and never leave them until you know they are ok and that they choose to stay back.  Leaving them behind is a break in the respect you have for one another.   Real story – I was leading a group of 10 in Deadwood, SD we agreed to be back at the bikes at 4pm.  At 3pm, I witnessed my group of 8 following the Ex-Marine in our group outta town.  They got the ass end of me.  They had left us because they said they couldn't reach us.  They never even waited until the designated 4pm time!  My response – Marines don't even leave their dead behind, and we were alive and kicking mad!  Never rode with them again! Communication while riding.  If you ride solo this still pertains to you but especially when riding in a group – how you communicate with traffic and the other bikers in the group is critical!  The hand signals on a motorcycle are very similar to those on a bicycle.  I use hand signals and the turn signals on my bike whether I'm solo or riding in a group.  If I'm solo, I want to be sure that guy behind me in the 3-quarter ton truck knows I'm turning left.  He can see my left arm extend out and it's confirmed with my turn signal.  Let's face it some of those turn signals are so small not all drivers can see them!  Be consistent in your hand signals – if you don't know what they are…. learn them!  Just google Motorcycle Riding Hand Signals – you'll find all sorts of charts out there.  Learn them and use them consistently.  If I'm riding behind, you and you use your right hand/arm to make a right turn gesture– I'll think you're pointing at something, and I'd hit you! The proper right-hand turn is using your left harm at a 90-degree angle – just like on a bicycle. When I'm leading and turning right, I'm looking for the guy behind me to turn on his right turn signal – indicating to me, he got my message.  Now I'll know he's slowing down with me.  Safety is always first!   Two Finger Wave -When bikers meet other bikers on the road you will see them make a peace sign down low under the handlebars.  This means we are saying to keep two tires on the ground or the rubber down. It also means we're telling the riders to be safe.  Trikes will stick out three fingers. 6).  Bikers are givers and we love helping others!  Hard to believe right?  When you see a large bad ass looking group riding together it could be one of two kinds of groups.  It could be the affiliated MC's (Motorcycle Clubs) or Independents (bikers with no club affiliation) riding for a charity event.  Yes, even the MC's ride for charitable causes.  Everyone, unless you live under a rock have heard of or seen the very large Toy Runs during Christmas.  We will ride and contribute for St. Jude, cancer events, abused women and children and not only give money but time.  I tend to collect for specific people that I know are in need.  One year at my Mystery Ride we collected for a grandpa and grandma that had recently adopted their 3 grandchildren and they were strapped with living in an RV and needed money and food over Christmas.  We made that Christmas a blessing for them. Bikers will usually ride on charity events on Saturdays and Sundays and usually on holidays.  One day a FB friend went online to bitch about the bikers he heard while attending church over Labor Day– said he couldn't hear the preacher.  I engaged and attempted to explain that the group was on a charity run for St. Joseph's Children's Hospital.  All that did was opened me up for more crap from his other FB friends.  We have a long road ahead of us to explain to non-biking people who we are and what we do for the community. In the meantime – keep doing it!  Ride on! Here are a couple of disclaimers! **Riding a motorcycle is mentally exhausting because you're constantly on the defense looking for exit strategies.      **Do not attempt group riding until you've mastered solo riding.  *Bikers often refer to their women as Ole Lady's – ah, yeah never call me that! Thank you for listening, I hope you were inspired, entertained or you learned something new! In a couple of weeks, I'm off to the Bikefest in Laconia, NH to scratch off another bucket list item!  I hear the riding is fantastic and I can't wait to go! While I'm gone to Laconia my real estate, business is doing really well.  My personal residence is producing income while I'm out riding around looking at the countryside!  If you want to know how, reach me at www.fearlessinnovator.com!

Los 10 fracasos más sonados del mundo de la moto

Sorprendentes, innovadoras, originales… o simplemente feas. De todo hay en esta lista de motos con un denominador común: Todas fueron un fracaso. Más grande o más pequeño, pero un fracaso. Eso sí, seguro que si no todas, algunas te van a sorprender. Aunque estás diez motos hayan sido un fracaso soy de los que valora mucho la valentía de las marcas por explorar nuevos caminos. Detrás de estas 10 motos en todos los casos había buenas ideas y de hecho es lo primero que os vamos a contar. Pero en unas no se plasmaron con brillantez y en otras se adelantaron demasiado a su tiempo. Vamos con la lista por orden alfabético. 1. Vespa 150 TAP, “A la guerra en Vespa” (1956) La idea era muy buena: ¿Qué problema tiene un paracaidista si llega vivo al suelo? Moverse rápido y bien armado. Así que los franceses de ACMA Ateliers de Construction de Motocycles et Automobiles partieron de una Vespa e hicieron este invento de TT armado con un cañón de 75 mm. Incluso estaba previsto un sistema para disparar en marcha que evitase el retroceso. 2. Yamaha U5E. La “lady Yamaha” (1965) Otra idea buena sobre el papel: Una moto para mujeres. Lo que pasa es que una moto para mujeres debería ser algo más que partir de una moto normal, pintarla de rosa, montar una cesta en el manillar y poner flecos en el sillín. 3. OSSA Urbe, “proyecto crisis” (1980) La idea en este caso: Un vehículo de dos ruedas con el comportamiento de una moto y la limpieza y practicidad de un Scooter. Esta era la idea de los directivos de la marca para salir de la crisis en que estaba sumida. 4. Honda ATC. O sobra, o falta una rueda (1980) Otra idea brillante cobre el papel: Un vehículo con las posibilidades de una moto de TT pero al alcance de todos los público, porque no había que mantener el equilibrio. Ya había Trikes desde los '70, pero con motores de 50 o poco más. Pero este, ya más potente no se caía como una moto, pero volcaba fácilmente y todo el peso iba a parar sobre su conductor. 5. BMW K1 “El ladrillo volador” (1988) En este caso la idea era un poquito desesperada: Sustituir con aerodinámica y chasis la falta de potencia en una deportiva. Pero es que los japoneses y los italianos, en esos años, ya ofrecían motos muy deportivas con chasis decentes y buena aerodinámica. 6. Gilera CX 125, una Show Bike de calle (1991) Otra buena idea: Hacer de una “Show bike” una moto rompedora. También pretendía ser una Bimota asequible. Lo más destacable su suspensión delantera y carrocería integral. La suspensión delantera hasta tenía nombre en clave SSS, Single Suspension System y se hizo en colaboración con la empresa de horquillas Paioli. 7. Suzuki XF 425, tracción total (1991) ¡Ojo! En este caso, hablamos de un prototipo que nunca se produjo. Pero me ha parecido interesante. En este caso la idea era hacer una moto de tracción total, con las dos ruedas motrices. Para ello contaba con un sistema complejo a base de cadenas que llevaban la tracción a la rueda delantera que llevaba una horquilla tipo Earles. 8. Aprilia Moto 6.5, con chasis de goma (1995) Te advierto una cosa: Esta moto, hoy día, es objeto de culto por los coleccionista, por su exclusividad y rareza. En este caso la idea era hacer una moto “bella” por encima de todo. La dibujó el prestigioso diseñador francés Philippe Starck y a mí me parece bonita. 9. BMW C1, “con techo y sin casco” (2001) La idea: Una moto que se pueda llevar sin casco y que no te mojes cuando llueve. Para mí, era una mala idea. Para muchos potenciales usuarios de moto, que no iban en moto, la idea no les parecía tan mal. 10. Honda DN-01, ¿la moto del futuro? (2008) Alguien tuvo una idea: Y si mezclamos una custom y un maxiscooter. La idea no parecía mala sobre el papel, pero solo duro dos años… Y eso que era un proyecto serio, una moto que debía ser fácil de llevar con tecnologías como el cambio automático… Espero que os haya gustado este desfile de imaginación. Si es así, podemos hacer una segunda parte… ¡porque al menos otras 10 seguro que salen!

Ich hab einen neuen Werbespruch für Trikes entworfen: Trike, worst of both worlds: Man steht im Stau wie mit dem Auto. Und wenn dir einer reinknallt oder du runterfällst, ...bist du Tod. UND: Kann man eigentlich bei Cola noch von "Zutaten" sprechen...oder doch eher von Inhaltsstoffen, oder Zeug, das da drin ist? UND: Lieder die man leider nie wieder hören kann: "Tears in Heaven" + "Wonderwall" UND: "2020 war ein tolles Jahr", ist ein bisschen so als würde man sagen, dass 1939 ein tolles Jahr war.
