Abstract:
A tracked vehicle (), or a kit () for converting a standard bicycle () into a tracked cycle, includes a track assembly () with a bogie assembly () for riding on snow, mud, sand, etc. The track assembly includes a continuous track () movably disposed about a drive wheel () coupled to a frame () of the vehicle or bike, and a bogie wheel () disposed rearward of the drive wheel. The bogie assembly includes a compliant and resilient arm () coupling the bogie wheel to the frame of the vehicle or bike. The arm exerts a force against the bogie wheel, which forces the track towards the riding surface.
