This popped up on my local CL yesterday.

I'm not familiar with the "quick-change" trikes, but it looks like the bike is just strapped into a frame.

They are designed to do two things...

Provide an option for people who cannot afford a $40k trike conversion

And

Allow you to place some serious luggage/trailer weight on your bike without hurting the suspension.

Driving them are interesting though.
