Does anyone think there's a chance that RM will introduce these, less strain than a HCT and carries more than a normal bike

This is RM we're talking about so there's no chance of introducing something that would actually help staff

only problem I have is that you cannot steer it!
Cheers, Dodgedr007

The whole front end pivots to steer which is much easier than the HCT.
