Editing Three-wheeler (section)

=== Two rear{{Anchor|Delta}} ===
Having one wheel in front and two in the rear for power reduces the cost of the steering mechanism but greatly decreases lateral stability when cornering while braking.

When the single wheel is in the front (the "delta" form, as in a child's pedal [[tricycle]]), the vehicle is inherently unstable in a braking turn, as the combined tipping forces at the [[center of mass]] from turning and braking can rapidly extend beyond the triangle formed by the [[contact patch]]es of the wheels. This type, if not tipped, also has a greater tendency to spin out ("swap ends") when handled roughly.{{citation needed|date=May 2015}}
