- That’s how we sometimes introduce first-timers (usually kids) to the idea of riding, it’s easier to balance especially in the taffic jams and isn’t as dangerous for first-timers;
- The space between and over two back wheels may be used for a motor, a battery and a place to put your luggage on.
- They have a good marketable slogan already in the name, as they are Try-cycles.
You just need to design it to cool and\or professional so the rider won’t be afraid of looking like a kid or a clown.
Pro and con: it’s width is way more than that of a bycicle, but at the same time it gives a bit of wiggle space for your feet.
There are cities near coatlines and beaches that rent quad-cycles for tourists, sightseeing, pedicab taxi, etc. More offen, they stay broken longer compared to the standard 2-wheel bicycle for rent. In my youth I had a tricycle (20" wheels and a rear basket) that hauled daily about 70 newspapers in one trip. My downside, maintenance was never a simple walmart fix and the tricycle had a very short service life in the paperboy business. Teenage me relied more on my Huffy bicycle and 2nd refill trips for those heavy sunday papers. Reliability vs truckability (if that’s an actual word 😉). And on the business-side there’s the cost. Someone will need to have a proper dedicated bicycle workshop. A “backroom to fix bikes” will never cut it for the evermore complicated modern bike\e-bike.
Maybe, but here it’s just spam.
It’s a thought I had in a shower. Why it’s worse than any post in the new here?
Not buying it, sounds like a commercial.
It can’t be a commercial if there’s no product lol.
If I’m wrong I apologize. It’s awfully long for a showerthought and looks like the standard spam that gets injected in subs like this in the late evening.
Don’t be sorry, that’s good that you are against commercial influx into our Fediverse communities. I hated it on reddit myself and I can get behind what you was thinking and why it triggered you. I just can’t help myself by word it like it’s an ad.
Future shower tip, avoid heavy buzzwords (promo, business, fear, etc). Showerthoughts typically sound like laid-back ideas since an actual shower is quite similar and relaxed.
Bicycle riding is relaxing and fun. I got that notion late after re-rereading the post.
