The 4MC is the original work of engineer and company director Nick Shotter. He has specifically designed the 4MC to get its rider through traffic safely yet efficiently.

His interest in safety originated from being injured in a road accident when working as a London motorcycle courier.

The 4MC has evolved through Nick’s rigorous design process which began in 1989. In 2000 the 4MC won a DTI Smart Award for a Feasibility Study.

From 2002 Nick introduced the 4MC to many well known manufacturers with an invitation to buy the 4MC’s intellectual property (IP). Between 2004 and 2008 he built a full sized working prototype to further demonstrate the 4MC.

The 4MC’s unique designs are covered by several patent applications. The 4MC’s patent applications, trademark, and prototype are all part of the 4MC’s IP. At this stage the IP is available for sale. Once the patent applications have been granted the IP will be available for either sale or license.

The prototype’s purpose is to demonstrate the 4MC. To achieve this it was not necessary to equip the prototype with mudguards, lights, or bodywork. The prototype is very sure footed and terrific fun to ride.
