The TrikeBuggy Bullet is our next generation PPG Trike inspired from designs that are both visually appealing and highly functional. This design is for the paraglider version only and is FAA Part 103 legal as an Ultralight Vehicle or Aircraft. The Bullet's frame is simple and solid, made of chromed steel and aluminum. It is sleek and racy, plus it gives the pilot a protective cage that will keep the pilot from contact with the ground in case of a rollover. The TrikeBuggy Bullet uses the tried and true Flexifoil Wide Axle Kite Buggy as the foundation for this unique PPG Trike. The new design allows the pilot to quickly dismount the motor for use as foot launch or to transport. The Bullet also quickly disassembles for packing away, and accepts our new EyePod Fairings as well as having it's own accessories such as Bullet A-Assists and Intuitive Foot Steering System made specially for this new cage design. The Bullet also incorporates our latest innovation - the TrikeBuggy Low Hangpoint System. This allows the use of virtually any paraglider whether it has trimmers or not. The risers are positioned much lower than most PPG Trikes, bringing the brake position down to a comfortable reach for even the shortest pilots. This system is unique in the industry, since it allows the pilots to use their regular paraglider without making modifications to it. The Low Hangpoint System is also noteworthy because it literally ties the paraglider to the Buggy, eliminating the need for any kind of harness system. You simply sit down and fasten your seat belt and go fly! A Five-Point Harness can be added, but really is not necessary. Our Harness Backup Kit can also be used on the Bullet for added security if desired. The low CG (center of gravity) is the same as the other TrikeBuggies, since we are using the same low seat and comfortable reclined seat position made possible by the Flexifoil Buggy. At 7" off the ground, this is the lowest pilot seat of any ultralight aircraft available today. The TrikeBuggy Bullet has one more distinguishing feature - it includes the Bullet A-Assists at no additional charge. These great accessories make the inflation of the wing a snap, with no input needed from the pilot! Simply hook up the A-Assists and watch your glider come up evenly every time (well almost!). The glider gets the best chance at a perfect inflation, since they always pull evenly on the A risers. The TrikeBuggy Bullet is available in either the Basic or Deluxe versions with the basic version recommended for expert PPG Trike pilots only - due to the shorter width and wheelbase which is more challenging to taxi and launch.
