Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims priority to US Patent Application No. 62 / 286,236, filed January 22, 2016, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0003] The present technology relates to a wheeled vehicle provided with a fender and a fender for the wheeled vehicle. Background technique [0004] Fenders are commonly used on vehicles with wheels on the exterior of the body, such as tricycles and motorcycles, to help prevent or reduce the amount of water and debris projected rearwardly by the spinning wheels. However, one of the disadvantages of fenders is that when the vehicle is in motion the fenders are in contact with incoming air and can act as "air intakes", thus creating drag. [0005] Furthermore, such vehicles with wheels on the outside of the body are susceptible to air resistance due to air circulation through the open wheels, especially three-wheeled vehicles where the lef...
