Engineering:Two-wheeler
From HandWiki
A two-wheeler is a vehicle that runs on two wheels.
The two wheels may be arranged in tandem, one behind the other, as with single-track vehicles, or arranged side by side, on the same axle. If on the same axle, the vehicle may be have no other support, as with dicycles, or have additional support, which is often also the source of motive power.
Wheeled single-track vehicles include:
- Dandy horses, velocipedes, or draisines, forerunners of bicycles
- Bicycles, a pedal-powered two-wheeler
- Motorcycles, a motor-powered two-wheeler, similar in construction with bicycles
- Gyrocars, a self-balancing car on two wheels
Dicycles include:
- Self-balancing scooters, also known as hoverboards
- Segway PTs, a brand of self-balancing personal transporters
Two-wheelers intended to be used with additional support, which is also the source of motive power, include:
- Cabriolets ("cabs") or hansom cabs on two wheels
- Hand trucks, two-wheeled devices used for transporting bulky or heavy items such as furniture or golf clubs
- Shopping trolley (caddy)
- Many trailers, especially semi-trailers
Two-wheelers intended to be used with additional support, which is not the source of motive power, include:
