The Carbon Chassis Velocipede is the first human powered vehicle to have a carbon fibre monocoque chassis which is the same material found in the fastest high-performance Formula 1 automobiles which makes it the worlds most advanced three-wheeled velomobile.
The Velocipede was designed by world-renowned designer Michael Goretzky

This customized vehicle combines the low-impact exercise benefits of a recumbent bicycle with the stability of a three-wheeled cruiser and the aerodynamics of a concept automobile.
Unlike the traditional three-wheeled vehicles this low profile tadpole design has two forward 20″ wheels that allow for sharp, tight turning at higher speeds that would normally tip a traditional three-wheeler.
The velomobile has a headlight, tail light, and turn signals powered by a rechargeable battery.
