A decent set of rock sliders and a winch bumper by the looks of it ;)
I suppose these technically isn't a motor vehicle (and they are not all mine either), but last year for one of the modules was to design, build and compete (ultimately resulting in destruction :twisted:) a 'Human powered off road vehicle'.
As part of a team of 4, this was what we came up with. Not the most radical of designs maby, though it was tough and effective, particuarly at wheelies :D In fact it was rather a little too good a wheelies :twisted:
Consideering the rather rushed redesign of some components, its amazing how much abuse it withstood before losing a wheel
Despite winning the competion :angel: it wasn't a one one horse race.
You can't knock the Irish for thier inginuety
Though walking up a mound with 7Kg strapped to each leg is easier said than done.....
and like wise is sliding down on your knees on rough ground :lol:
Some designs wern't the most stable in ruts
and some evan more so :lol:
Though to the trickcycles favour, it did have a good wading depth, that was untill he gave up half way along, asked for a little assistance and promptly got submerged by the bow wave from the discovery that came to his aid.
Ultimately though many teams did suffer from using bicycle components, there were a lot of chain ans proket failures. Motor bike sprockets and chain procver far more durable.
