Tilting Trike "ITALICS"

‘ITALICS’ is a tilting reverse trike with full suspension and low

center of gravity. The vehicle

 has several trim levels: basic, electric, 

open cargo, closed cargo, family cargo, weather protection and a

front fairing that can be used as a helmet case in the  bike sharing

version. The tricycle is suitable for all-weather (4 seasons) 

conditions  and provides better grip even on low-grip roads and

better bracking performance making it perfect with principals of

“Universal design” for all ages. The two front wheels steer with an

Ackermann principle, are shock-absorbing and have a tilting

mechanism in curves that makes riding safer with an

incredible amount of grip.
