Crossbow Reverse Trike Design, target price $30-35,000 USD (availability unknown)
The Crossbow is built on a tube frame and covered with a fiberglass
body. The engine sits up front and drives a reversing gearbox. The rear wheel is currently belt driven but they may go with a chain depending on testing. A single 20×10 wheel in the back carries a BF Goodrich radial, front wheels are 17×7 also running BFG tires.
The transmission is the standard 6 speed and all controls are in the standard motorcycle configuration with twist throttle, left hand
clutch and foot shift. They were careful to follow both Canadian and U.S. regulations for a 3 wheeled vehicle to make registration as easy as possible.
The whole unit weighs just 980 pounds and two months of road and track testing show 0-60 in 4.43 sec., quarter mile in 12.57 sec.
They’re pretty happy with how everything works and handles but want to do a bit of restyling before launching the final product.
