True or False: A bicycle can only have up to 2 wheels.

1. True

2. False

3. Only for racing bicycles

4. Depends on the design

The correct answer is: False

The assertion that a bicycle can only have up to 2 wheels is false. While the standard bicycle typically has two wheels, there are other designs that include three-wheeled bicycles, known as tricycles, and even four-wheeled variants used for specific applications, such as quadricycles. These variations serve different purposes, such as stability for riders who may have difficulty balancing on two wheels or for recreational activities and utility. The diversity in bicycle design reflects not only the traditional two-wheeled model but also innovative adaptations that address various needs and preferences. Therefore, it is entirely accurate to state that the claim about bicycles being limited to two wheels is not universally true.
