The three-wheeled device is also believed to have been a precursor to the modern-day tricycle and bicycle.[2] Farffler, who was either a paraplegic[3][4] or an amputee,[5] also created a device for turning an hourglass at regular intervals and added chimes to the clocktower of Altdorf bei Nürnberg.[6] Notes and references1. ^{{cite web |title=A Brief History of the Tricycle|publisher=retropedalcars.com |date=2012-12-02 |url=http://www.retropedalcars.com/tricycle_history1.htm |archiveurl=https://archive.li/KoCWB |archivedate=11 Jan 2013 |deadurl=yes }} 2. ^"Medical Innovations - Wheelchair," Science Reporter, Volume 44, 2007, 397. 3. ^Jane Bidder, Inventions We Use to Go Places (London: Franklin Watts, 2006, 18) 4. ^Rory A.
