final design

Our final design incorporated a modular approach with two outrigger units mounted onto each rear swingarm of the scooter. The outrigger wheels are tied into the vehicle’s speed and are automatically deployed whenspeed falls below a critical threshold.​ For a demonstration of the outriggers in action, please see the video below.
