Abstract

A cargo reversed tricycle apparatus and method providing an open front, allowing the encompassing of cargo and a low center of weight when carrying, allowing more options in loading, transporting, and unloading and improved stability and maneuverability. A front-open frame provides cargo space between the front wheels, and allows for a variety of ways to load, transport, and unload the cargo. A dual-crossed-drag-link steering arrangement is provided, where a drag-link driver linked to the handlebar pushes and pulls shaped link rods, which transfer the forces through pivot links on turning bars on the two front-wheel units, which thereby turn in the intended direction.
