The TECA Concept
Here’s what the creators of the TECA are saying on their site: “TECA is a microvehicle concept aimed at improving the safety, convenience and efficiency of two-wheeled travel. The aerodynamic shape should give performance improvements of around 35% and save fuel as well! ... ”. What is not said is how the bike stands at a red light… Via Teca

They say once the bike starts to lean at a 45 degree angle wheels will come out from the side of the bike to keep it stable. Making those sharp turns will also be easy and stopping shouldn't be a problem. Like one person said. "GYROSCOPIC STABILAZATION!"

Good god ppl... do you think a company would waste money making it if they DIDN'T have a way to stop at red lights? (Most) companies aren't retarted and those that are don't last long because they go out of business... there are plenty of options including the "training wheels." What suprises me is that all these people that must be inteligent if they are raging on a companies stupidity havent thought of using the same force that keeps a bike upright at speed... GYROSCOPIC STABILAZATION!

GG newbs... die and clear out the gene pool a bit. K thnx bye.

It's obvious. When you stop at a red light, you do a barrel roll.

Folks! It's a concept vehicle. It's not ready for the showroom! I'm sure something like automatic outriggers could be deployed electronically. And the reason the riders not wearing a helmet is I believe enclosed vehicles like this have a waiver for wearing a helmet because of meter reader type vehicles. Anyway this idea is bitchin! We need to create alternatives to cars and trucks in our country for those who want real choices.

I seem to recall that BMW did one of these a long time ago. It had "traing wheels" that came out at low speeds

Can someone say TRON. BTW how do you stay upright at a stop light, or do you just tip over.
