A cycle with discrete steering input and output axes 18 configured for rearward extended reach of a steering input control 12 and elevated presentation toward or juxtaposed with a rear seat 11. There may be a drive pedal crank axis at a similar longitudinal position to the steering input 12, forward of the rear seat 11. The steering drive transmission may be articulated between the input and output axes, and may have a plurality of couplings and shafts, providing relative transposition of the steering input axis to the steering output axis. The aim of the invention is to provide a semi-recumbent cycle wherein the cyclist has a laid back riding stance and a low centre of gravity CoG to provide ride comfort and balance, without having to lean forward or transfer weight when checking their peripherals, but also without compromising on the steering flexibility found with conventional aligned-axis steering methods. |
