Uturn | Balance AllTerrain tilting trike

The construction and the tests have now been completed, as I had invented a superior implementation of a tricycle with the obvious advantage of tilting and comfortable, off-road riding. Uturn allterrain tilting trike has a rear system suspension leaning mechanism that is based on an idea I had years ago. Its implementation was a very difficult process, but I succeeded in proving that the basic working principle fulfills its goal.
The suspension trike seen in the video is commissioned by "Cekta", a film equipment company. The aim is to carry cameras in the rear, as well as a passenger. From now on, my goal is to build a lighter model with some transmission improvement, so that anyone can buy it. At the rear, in addition to the suspension and tilting mechanism, there will be a frame mount design for cargos or whatever else suits the buyer’s needs.
More videos that will provide better views will become available in the near future, while I will also improve the basic version of the bike!

Hello
A new version of this unique tricycle is live on Kickstarter now!

[tubeless]

This turning radius is insane for such a vehicle! Great work!

[yishnir]

I wish these were widely available. Great work. Thanks for sharing. Also, nice video.

[kamarulamin]

Would love to see this available in Singapore 🇸🇬!

Any issues with it being sketchy at high speed? It there any room in the design/scope for a full suspension version?

[carmelpule]

Very nice design. I like the "sprung differential effect to link suspend the back wheels" with "a true differential effect". Driving both the rear wheels like that, is not exactly "a differential" as the slower wheel drives when cornering, and the faster wheel basically freewheels around.
An excellent design but I would guess that it is rather expensive to build for the mass market. The later one with concentric shafts for the sprung suspension, tilting and drive is excellent. Still, it is a brilliant and a nice piece of engineering, or should I say, a useful prosthetic aid, just like any engineered car, aircraft, ocean going liner and a train or a bus or a truck or indeed, a pair of shoes, all engineered to save our legs. .

This looks great 👍 such a shame that so few large manufacturers are not being innovative and adopting and applying such technology to their existing trikes or to create trikes from the ground up with similar functionality. How soon is this going to be released into the consumer market and how far would be planning to sell these ; all of Europe including the dearly departed UK where I am located or just your local region ?

My understanding is that trike design is most useful in a recumbent bike and allows for large wheels in that configuration. I don’t understand the advantage of a trike over a bike in an upright rider position. Nonetheless, superior engineering!

awesome, great job. keep forward, let me ask you something which is better for electric tri-bike or tri-motorcycle, what do think the rear tilting is better for? and front tilting is better for? Remember: turning radius, stability, comfortability, weight, off road, traffic situation for commute, security, grip and traction(dynamics).

[agisspentzos]

Its absolutely great! However I believe that physics prefers the two wheels to be on the front for cornering dynamics, grip and traction.

Will the tricycle stand upright by itself?

[daibhiseaghdha]

when you are on the road, and you are not the only one, how do you see, where the space is wide enough, to get through the gap between the curb and other vehicles.
I would prefer the two wheels on the front, to make it more practical. unless you can commandeer all the road space, just for you.

First was wondering about the Black Dot but then i saw it ;) How Heavy is that and what Type of User would Benfit from that?
I think about 40Kilo or maybe some above? When i would own this one i need a Garage to put it safe away.

[LaineyBug]

Would it work with a recumbent version with the same hight profile?

[titter]

You censored the tilting mechanism. But i belive it is just a differential with a fixed ring gear.

[Vanwaynesoohoo]

How do you operate the brakes and tilt locking is it hard

[_mrcrypt]

Very cool! Slap a gyro-stabilized basket on the back of that puppy! Fantastic work!!! 🍷

[jmfdz]

Me encanta, si la comercializas te la compro 😄

[Radleta]

Great for people with CP to train trycle para cycling.
I'm under C2 cathegory

- make width less than the bike handle ...
not more ...
- use 20 rim fat ...
- add front electric wheel ..
- i think its need bigger gear in front to be more speed ..
but i like front just 1 rotary ...

...
nice design,
good luck ...
now china copping it ...!
