Question 4080

A cycle (ciclo) is a vehicle with...

  1. two wheels, powered by a motor.
  2. two or more wheels, powered by a motor or by pedals.
  3. at least two wheels, powered by its driver by means of pedals or cranks.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: at least two wheels, powered by its driver by means of pedals or cranks.

A human-powered cycle (ciclo) has two or more wheels and is powered by its rider, mainly through pedals or hand cranks. If it is powered only by a motor, it is not a human-powered cycle. A pedal-assist model still qualifies because its motor only provides assistance.
