MICROMOBILITY ELECTRIC VEHICLE CARGO HANDLING
A micromobility electric vehicle includes a front storage volume and a rear storage volume. The front storage volume may be defined on two sides by an angled footboard portion and a column. The rear storage volume may be defined on two sides by a curved footboard portion and a seat post. Retainers including an elastic member may be employed in the front and/or rear storage volume to releasably secure objects of different sizes and shapes in the front or rear storage volumes. Hooks may be employed in the front and/or rear storage volumes to allow an object with a strap to be supported in the front or rear storage volume.

TWO-TIERED STRUCTURAL FRAME FOR A THREE-WHEELED CARGO BIKE
Embodiments of the present invention include to a two-tier structural frame for a three-wheeled cargo bike. The structural frame can be the platform for the entire bike and includes both steering and suspension parts. The frame of the bike and its related suspension and steering parts provide stability, durability, and comfort while in motion under human pedal power, as well as motion from a hybrid of human pedal and electric-assisted power sources.

LIGHTWEIGHT ELECTRIC SADDLE TYPE VEHICLE CHASSIS
A saddle type vehicle having at least one seat and at least two wheels, at least one electric motor, and a rechargeable electric energy storage system (RESS). The vehicle having a chassis that is formed from a first side frame member and a second side frame member to form a hollow interior. The chassis being configurable to support a pedaled configuration and a non-pedaled configuration utilizing the same chassis. The chassis forming a battery compartment and storage compartment that are accessible from an upper surface of the chassis. The chassis also extends from a forward end of the vehicle to a rear end of the vehicle such that the rear wheel connects to the rear end of the chassis and a steering stem attaches near the forward end of the chassis.
RIDEABLE GOLF BAG CART/CYCLE
A rideable golf bag cart/cycle (10) is a personal riding golf cart/cycle adapted to transport a single rider (13) and a golf bag (12) for use on a golf course. The cart/cycle (10) is generally symmetrical about a longitudinal plane (16) and includes a frame (18) with a seat (20), a front wheel and steering components (22), a rear wheel (24), an inclined bag support structure (26) extending between the legs of the rider (13), and a motor/control subassembly (28). A collapsed mode (30) in some embodiments is achieved by folding down the handlebars (72) and pivoting the running boards (56) up against the frame (16). An enhanced embodiment (118) includes a canopy (122) and a deluxe multifunctional console (124).

Motorcycle with storage container
A motorcycle (1) including: a supporting structure; at least two wheels (2,3) constrained to the supporting structure; a traction engine (4) constrained to the supporting structure and a transmission system (5) adapted to transmit the motion from the traction engine (4) to at least one (3) of the two wheels (2, 3); a storage container (10) fixed to the supporting structure having an internal compartment (11) and a closing device (12) movable with respect to the supporting structure between a closing position and an opening position in order to prevent the access to the internal compartment (11) in the closing position and to allow the access to the internal compartment (11) in the opening position. The storage container (10) includes at least one presence detector (30) adapted to output an electrical signal representative of the presence and/or absence of at least one object (9) in the internal compartment (11) of the storage container (10).

BICYCLE SECURITY DEVICES AND SYSTEM
A bicycle security device and associated bicycle theft alert or security systems are described. In some embodiments, the security devices and systems are configured to deter theft or other unauthorized uses of a bicycle, such as an electric bicycle, by providing multiple points or mechanisms of protection for the bicycle. For example, a bicycle security device, or bike lock, can include a cable or tether component integrated with a shackle of a wheel lock mechanism, which enables a rider to secure his/her bicycle via two integrated mechanisms of deterrence or protection within the bike lock.
