A tiltable vehicle is configured to transform between an autonomous mode and a rideable mode by pivoting the handlebars and steering column of the vehicle about a pitch axis. In the autonomous mode, the steering column is folded back toward the chassis and a tiltable chassis of the vehicle is prevented from tilting. In the rideable mode, the steering column is unfolded and the chassis is free to tilt. In some examples, a tiltable vehicle includes features beneficial for vehicle-sharing, such as parking devices or a basket. These features may be included on any suitable vehicle and are not limited to use on transforming vehicles.

A kickstand (17) and bike comprising such a kickstand. The kickstand comprises a base (18) connected or connectable to a bike frame (2); a stand (19) movable relative to the base between a standing position and a retracted position; and a latch (20) latching the stand in the standing position. The latch is pivotable about a horizontal rotational latch axis (R.sub.L) between a latching position and a release position.

A personal mobility that adjusts power supply based on a state of a kickstand is provided. The personal mobility includes a main body, a kickstand provided rotatably on one end in the main body, and a variable resistor that is provided on an axis of the kickstand as an axis. The variable resistor is configured to output a voltage that varies based on a position of the kickstand. A controller is then configured to adjust power supply when the position of the kickstand is a parking position.

A training wheel apparatus for learning to ride a bicycle includes a lift activation assembly, wherein the lift activation assembly includes a grip. The training wheel apparatus further includes a wheel mount assembly configured to operatively connect to a wheel. The training wheel apparatus further includes a cable configured to operatively connect to the lift activation assembly and the wheel mount assembly via the grip. When activated by rotation of the grip in a first direction, the lift activation assembly is configured to use the cable to change an elevation of the wheel between a first position.

An auxiliary wheel system for a scooter includes an auxiliary wheel, an arm, an drive assembly, and an operation module. The arm has a first end fixed to the auxiliary wheel, and a second end pivotally fixed to a frame of the scooter via a joint attached at the second end. The drive assembly is configured to pivot the arm about the joint between a raised position and a lowered position with respect to the frame wherein the auxiliary wheel is vertically offset from a ground surface and in the lowered position. The operation module is configured to cause the arm to pivot about the joint between the raised position and the lowered position based on a tilt of the frame with respect to the ground surface exceeding a threshold value.

Disclosed is an autonomous bicycle system including a navigation system, a steering system, a pedal assist system providing extra propulsion when engaged, and provides a combination of internal and external sensors, cameras for detecting threats and obstacles in an environment. Respectively the autonomous bicycle can be controlled manually or controlled remotely by a control network alternatively in real-time to switch from a manual driving state to an autonomous driving state or vice versa in respect to mechanical motion involving steering, velocity and position and maintaining balance support of autonomous bicycle when in motion or when stationary. A control network providing a virtual operator systematically controlling a current position of the autonomous bicycle in real-time based on at least one rider-selected starting location and destination location, and a smartphone connected therein providing an APP linking the rider to use the autonomous bicycle for various rider plans, control network plans or service plans.
