Weird Bike. Cool Concept.



Sam Dunne writes

"Taking a lot of inspiration from those funny three wheeled scooters and high-speed tilting trains, design graduate Berk Asal came up with the "Triblean" retrofit kit as part of his thesis work.
Berk's addition to the bicycle retrofitting world transforms an ordinary road bike into a rather peculiar 3-wheeler that, on top of being a comfortably stable ride, allows the cyclist to lean into corners for maximum speed and exhilaration."


I'm sorry but everything "peculiar" isn't necessarily great. I can lean into my bike comfortably with little space and be just fine. This third wheel seems rahter unnecessary for practical use. Still, a great design.
