Forgotton Russian HPV ideas see light of dayDesigns by an HPV enthusiast from Ulyanovsk, Russia, have been uncovered by the Moscow-based manufacturers of the AS Engineering FWD recumbent trike. The illustrations show a fully-faired 'delta' trike - two wheels at the back - with what are described as carbon-fibre disk wheels. The bodywork is nicely styled, and looks as if it's designed to accommodate the rear wheels pivoting in the style of a Flevo Trike. Also shown are some line drawings for a four-wheeler, and an interesting upright bike design, incorporating luaggage carriers front and rear. The website also shows some interesting developments in electric-assist. The front-wheel drive system of the ASE machines makes electric drive to the rear particularly easy to arrange.
