They have been around for a while but are excellent for those who still want that bike experience, but are wheelchair bound.

As youngsters one of our group had a sidecar outfit with a box attached. It enabled whoever had a broken leg or other injury at the time to still come out with us on ride-outs. [:D]

Happy days [8-|]

I did post these before, but it's fitting they go here too,

my firiend Jason Watt, one time F3000 champion, and SINCE his accident, Dutch Touring car champion. He was to have driven for Williams in F1, until the accident.

The retractable wheels are electro pneumatic, and retract and deploy VERY VERY quickly.

I was trying to work out howthe stabilisers work and then scrolled down, it was like you read my mind!

Am I right in thinking that needs assistance to get on and off the bike?

I guess that he cant take his wheelchair with him either or is their something even more clever in the top box?
