Zusammenfassung:	A steering centralisation device 110 comprises a housing 116 for fixing to the frame (14, figure 1) of a tricycle, a force transfer element 128 for fixing to the forks 130 of the tricycle, the force transfer element 128 being rotatable relative to the housing 116, first and second compression springs 146 connected to opposing sides of the force transfer element 128, the first and second springs 146 both being tensioned to hold the force transfer element 128 in an equilibrium position relative to the housing 116. Spring housings 136 may comprise seals 158, 160 and an orifice 162 for trapped air to escape, thereby providing a damping effect on the steering. The force transfer element 158 may also be connected to a remote steering controller.
