    摘要: The invention relates to a cycle 10 and a dock. The cycle 10 includes a lock including a main body attached to the cycle 10 and a member which can be moved from an unlocked position to a locking position in which it extends through the spokes 42 of a wheel 14 of the cycle 10 to prevent the wheel 14 from turning. The dock includes one or two upright plates 74 defining an aperture 76 such that the cycle 10 can be secured to the dock by offering the cycle 10 to the dock and moving the lock member through the or each dock aperture 76 into the locking position.

    摘要: The invention provides a spring system comprising a spring section 22 and a stop section 20, the spring section 22 and stop section 20 being arranged to pivot with respect to each other. The spring section 22 carries a first leaf spring 240 and the stop section 20 carries two first stops 212, 218. One of the spring section 22 and stop section 20 carries a second leaf spring 242 and the other carries two second stops 214, 216, so that when the stop section 20 is pivoted with respect to the spring section 22 in one direction, the first leaf spring 240 engages with one first stop 212 and resists the pivoting movement, and after a certain angle of pivoting the second leaf spring 242 engages with a second stop 216 and resists the pivoting movement, and correspondingly when the stop section 20 is pivoted with respect to the spring section 22 in the opposite direction, the second leaf spring 242 engages with the other second stop 214 and resists the pivoting movement, and after a certain angle of pivoting the first leaf spring 240 engages with the other first stop 218 and resists the pivoting movement.

    摘要: 1. The invention provides a vehicle with a tilting part 20 for a pilot and at least one ground engaging wheel 14, the vehicle further comprising a second part 22 carrying at least one ground engaging wheel 16, 18 on each side of the vehicle, connection means 82, 86, 132, 142 connecting the two parts 20, 22 so the tilting part 20 can tilt with respect to the second part 22 so that the pilot can lean into a corner. The vehicle further includes resistance means 162, 180 in the form of one or more helical springs or an elastomeric rising rate cone to resist tilting of the tilting part 20 with respect to the second part 22, the resistance to tilting provided by the resistance means 162, 180 being greater at a greater angle of tilt and greatest at the maximum extent of tilting, wherein the resistance means 162, 180 is such that it provides no resistance to tilting or a first rate of increase of resistance to tilting over a first range from no tilt to a first angle of tilt, and a second rate of increase of resistance to tilting over a second range from the first said angle to a second, greater angle of tilt, the second rate being higher than the first rate.
