Abstract |
|
Based on the speed and comfort level, two-wheelers are classified as mopeds, commuter bikes, cruiser bikes and sports bikes. The cruiser bikes offer more comfort level due to longer wheel base (average 200mm to 300mm more than normal commuter or sports bikes). But it gives less stability at high speeds at cornering. The commuter or sports segment on the other hand gives more agility in the cornering whereas it is less comfortable to the driver. Combining the two types i.e. commuter or sports segment with the cruiser segment would result in overcoming the shortcomings of both the bikes. The idea is to increase the length of the wheel base using the lead screw mechanism to convert commuter/sports to cruiser bike. Along with the increase in the length of the wheelbase, mechanisms of the chain transmission and seat adjustment is proposed in the design so as to maintain the dynamics of the vehicle. |
