![]() We weren't sure what to expect here at Mtn West but the amount of traffic was phenomenal. We definitely had great traffic flow we were pleasantly surprised. Can't believe the amount of people that came through our product display and drove in our off-road tire demo. What a fantastic turnout, fantastic venue. KENDA- Michael Higgs, Automotive Central U.S/Canadian Region Manager We are just extremely thankful and excited for the opportunity to be able to interface with our customers. That is hard to do when you are an entire ocean away. Most importantly, we're forming new relationships. We are getting to make connections, human connections, shaking hands, fist bumps, explaining our product, actually getting to have fans touch our product and show them what our capabilities are. It's awesome for a historically Australian company to get to interface with their customers in North America, face to face. Pasq’s little tag-along might just change that.Pretty amazing show. ![]() Stephan ended his short post about the ADV1 by saying, “The debate over the benefits of trailering continues to rage in the 4WD overland community, but it’s rarely discussed in the adventure moto world. The ADV1 Might Change Minds about Moto trailers But, the hinge pivots as you would expect when the rider is doing slow speed maneuvers and steering with the handlebars. This allows the ADV1 to remain completely stable, without any wobbles, as the trailer and bike haul down the highway. That means you’re a three-wheeled, inline vehicle that is perfectly stable. The hinge, through “science” (geometry and physics), locks when it’s pulled straight, or through turns where leaning is the means of negotiating a curve. He wrote in the article, “…featuring a virtual pivot point and trapezoidal multi-axis hitch system…” which is about a succinct a description as is possible. He wrote, “Lithe, compact, ruggedly built…the ADV1 looked like it was halfway through a Backcountry Discovery Route, just standing still.”Īs I explained our trapezoid hinge to Stephan, it was easy to see he was impressed and understood its function and impact. He was clearly impressed with the design, engineering, and the build. It’ll cruise down the highway or expressway at speed, and then follow you without a hitch as you turn off onto a logging road or BDR in search of adventure. The ADV1 is the only single-wheel trailer in the world made exclusively to do everything an ADV bike will do. There’s a simple explanation for that-there has never been a trailer like the ADV1. He looked at the ADV1 out of the corner of his eye, walked a bit further, stopped quickly as if it finally dawned on him what he saw…spun around, looked at the ADV1, and said, “ WOW! tell me about this!” ![]() I saw a guy quickly walking down the aisle in front of our booth-he had places to go. I was there and it’s true! It was still early on Sunday morning and the crowds we’d see later in the day had not materialized yet. And of note, the ADV1 is the only moto product that made the cut! The ADV1 – “Top Gear” for 2023Īs Stephan Edwards said in his opening sentence, the sight of the ADV1 stopped him in his tracks. The ADV1 is listed in their “ Top Gear of 2023” article. They were looking for exciting and new products. The editorial staff at Overland Journal, and their online-version at Expedition Portal, scoured the rows and rows of vendors at annual event, Overland Expo West (the largest, by far, overland event in the US).
