Abstract
A vehicle, comprising: a forward frame portion; a rear frame portion; and a motion control system comprising a first motion control device that movably interconnects the forward frame portion and the rear frame portion and a second motion control device that movably interconnects the forward frame portion and the rear frame portion, wherein the first motion control device connects to the rear frame portion at a first location, and the second motion control device connects to the rear frame portion at a second location that is a fixed distance from the first location, and the motion control system, by virtue of a geometric arrangement of the motion control system relative to the forward frame portion and the rear frame portion, adopts, in response to a forward acceleration of the rear frame portion resulting from a driving force imparted by a wheel supported by the rear frame portion, an operating state in which forces imparted onto the motion control system by a tensioning of a drivetrain element that transfers driving energy from a driving axle supported by the forward frame portion to a driven axle supported by the rear frame portion, the forward acceleration of the rear frame portion, and an acceleration of a user mass supported by the forward frame portion are in equilibrium.
