AFAIK, this is untrue. Even if it is patented you can always make the
bike non-commercially. The idea around patents is to give a carrot to
the inventer so he /she documents his/her secrets in a patent. The
carrot is to give the inventer a time limited monopoly on licensing the
idea for commercial reasons.

So....evrybody... is there any links on Alan Maurer's trike?
I found a little movie. But I cannot see much more than that it is
rear wheel driven. :-)

It looks really interesting. But is it also competitive on the
straight line? The course they took for the movie is obviously for
tilting trike.
