A front fork assembly of a snow bike is disclosed having left and right legs, each having an upper leg portion and a lower leg portion. The left leg upper and lower leg portions are linearly movable relative to each other. A right leg has an upper leg portion and a lower leg portion, the right leg upper and lower leg portions are linearly movable relative to each other. A ski mount has a lower end for coupling to a ski and an upper end for coupling to the left and right leg. A linear force element is coupled to the left and right legs with a first end adjacent the first ends of the forks and seconds ends coupled to the ski, the linear force element has a different linear force characteristic than the left and right legs.

In some examples, a ski bike includes a frame, a steering mechanism rotatably coupled to the frame, a ski, and a ski retention system. The ski retention system rotatably couples the ski to the frame or the steering mechanism. The ski retention system includes a ski bracket and a fixed member. The ski bracket is rigidly coupled to the ski. The fixed member is rigidly coupled to the frame or the steering mechanism and rotatably coupled to the ski bracket.

Embodiments of the present disclosure describe a spindle for a recreational vehicle, such as a snowmobile, an all-terrain vehicle (ATV), or a side-by-side vehicle. The spindle includes a spine, optionally a front fin that extends from a front surface of the spine, and optionally a rear fin that extends from a back surface of the spine.

A trailer for being pulled by a motor vehicle, the trailer comprising a chassis having a front section, a first side section and a second side section, wherein the front section comprises coupling means for being coupled to a motor vehicle. The trailer further comprises a first and a second bogie, each bogie having two wheels, the first bogie being connected to the first side section of the chassis in a first pivoting coupling and the second bogie being connected to the second side section of the chassis in a second pivoting coupling. The trailer comprises a first and a second runner extending in the driving direction of the trailer and the first and second runners are moveable between an on-road position and an off-road position, and the first runner is mechanically coupled to the first bogie and the second runner is mechanically coupled the second bogie so that the runners may pivot relative the chassis.

A ski bike for gliding across a slick surface that dampens shock forces on skis and provides precise maneuverability on a slick surface. The ski bike is configured to turn through either: a rotatable handle bar sub assembly, by shifting the weight of the rider, or through a carving technique involving digging the skis into snow and following the formed carved path to turn. The ski bike dampens shock forces on the skis through a dampener that absorbs shock forces from a front ski, a front shock pivot mount that that enables lateral pivoting to absorb lateral shock forces, and a swing arm tower that enables lateral pivoting of a pair of rear skis. A stomp plate provides stability by gripping footwear of a rider and enabling passage of moisture. A frame includes a lift bar that enables the ski bike to be lifted by ski lift.

A snow vehicle is disclosed comprising a vehicle frame, a propulsion unit coupled to the frame, and a front ski steered by a steering mechanism. The front of the vehicle includes a first front suspension and a second front suspension coupled to the ski. The rear suspension includes a bumper assembly preventing bottoming out of the rear suspension. The rear suspension is coupled to the vehicle frame such that the longitudinal spacing between the vehicle frame and rear suspension is adjustably controllable.
