A body for an electric two-wheeled vehicle is proposed. More particularly, proposed is a body for an electric two-wheeled vehicle in which materials of different types are stacked to be light in the weight of the vehicle body, and space receiving a battery is defined to protect the battery and facilitate installation thereof. The body for an electric two-wheeled vehicle includes a frame part having a space part formed in a center part thereof, wherein in the frame part, first and second material layers of different types are alternately stacked to be coupled to each other such that the first and second material layers form multiple layers.

A bicycle includes a frame having cross sectional profiles. The profiles are designed according to certain criteria to enhance bicycle performance. The profiles for multiple frame members may each fall within a range for each of aspect ratio, circumference, drag coefficient, first moment of inertia and/or second moment of inertia.

A seat rail installed on a vehicle body of a motorcycle. The seat rail includes an upper lateral member located on a lateral side in a width direction of the vehicle body and made of a fiber reinforced resin, the upper lateral member including a lower flange that protrudes in the width direction of the vehicle body from a lower edge of the upper lateral member. Furthermore, the seat rail includes a lower lateral member located downward from the upper lateral member and made of metal, and a lower surface of the lower flange of the upper lateral member is joined to an upper surface of the lower lateral member by adhesive.

A vehicle includes a forward frame portion, a rear frame portion, and a motion control system that movably interconnects the forward frame portion and the rear frame portion. A forward acceleration of the rear frame portion resulting from a driving force imparted by a wheel supported by the rear frame portion imparts a first force onto the motion control system that counters a second force imparted on the motion control system by an acceleration of a payload supported by the forward frame portion as a result of the forward acceleration.

A method for thermoforming a bicycle frame component includes the steps of: (A) preparing first and second casings both made of a thermoplastic material, the first casing having a first abutment surface, the second casing having a second abutment surface; (B) preparing a reinforcing unit; (C) abutting the first and second abutment surfaces against each other, and then placing the reinforcing unit at a junction of the first and second casings; and (D) thermally bonding the reinforcing unit to the first and second casings such that the first and second casings are joined to form the bicycle frame component. A bicycle frame component is also disclosed.

An adjustable bottom bracket mechanism, comprising: a bottom bracket, an axial connection portion and a mounting portion. The bottom bracket includes at least one shaft through hole and is configured for connection of a seat tube. A lengthwise extension direction of the seat tube is defined as a first direction. The axial connection portion includes at least one axial through hole and axially corresponds to the at least one shaft through hole. The mounting portion is connected to the axial connection portion and adjustably fixedly connected to the bottom bracket in a first position or a second position. When the mounting portion is in either of the first and the second position, axes of the at least one shaft through hole and the at least one axial through hole are located on the first direction.
