Three Wheels Better Motorcycle Sidecars

Welcome to 3WB

Three Wheels Better Sidecars publish motorcycle sidecar books (The Sidecar Guides) and offer help and advice to sidecar riders and sidecar builders worldwide.
If you are looking for technical advice concerning your sidecar outfit, you have come to the right place!

Sally from Australia recently wrote to me on completion of her new sidecar build:
Hey Rod
your book which I purchased late last year was brilliant when I was building my outfit.
It was so very useful each facet of the build I was able to refer to your book for guidance.
Congratulations for writing something that was easy to understand and use.

We also like to help with sidecar riding skills for new and experienced riders.
Our particular speciality is sidecar setup, eliminating problems like steering wobble and heavy steering.

3WB developed and produced the Motopodd sidecar and went on to design and construct a wide variety of different sidecars and outfits, some of which can be seen in the gallery.

We have many years of experience with riding and building sidecar outfits. Whilst we no longer build sidecars commercially, we continue to support the sidecar community. We do this by publishing books and developing new solutions for the setup and construction of sidecars.

We hope that through these activities we can help to promote the use of sidecars. 3WB want sidecar riders and outfit builders to achieve their goals!

The Sidecar Guide books

Our three guides cover everything from learning to ride a sidecar outfit, through building and fitting one, to keeping it legal in Great Britain. The Sidecar Guide is the riding and setup manual for new and existing owners. The Sidecar Technical Guide is the building and fitting manual, with frame plans and electrics. The Sidecar Legal Guide explains driving licences, registration, MOT, insurance and towing.

Ebooks can be downloaded straight away from the shop, and paperback copies are available from Amazon.
