Title: Trike or stabiliser?
Post by: Manky Monkey on November 09, 2007, 06:07:35 PM
Sent in by Triker Pete who spotted it for sale on Ebay, the home of all things wondrous.
The "MTC Voyager" appears to be a set of glorified stabilisers that you bolt to your standard bike to produce an instant ...err, 4 wheeler. Curious.

I saw that too - I don't think you could use it really coa the vehicle has to be registered as either a trike or a car or a bike - there's no way to register a vehicle that converts from one to another.

Reminds me of those pictures you see of dogs with hip problems who's owners fit them with trolley wheels to pull themselves around on.

I go on the BTW-us forum now and again, and these things often come up. Either people like them, or rip the s**t out of them.
I don't think it would be allowed over here as it would be classed as a four wheeler.
