Big ideas sometimes translate into products that are, well... BIG. Take a look at National Cycle's large polycarbonate canopies for urban transport vehicles. The company now produces some of the largest one-piece polycarbonate canopies in the world.
Fuel-efficient and environmentally friendly transport goes beyond just scooters and motorcycles to include small commercial and delivery vehicles that can function in crowded urban centers.
National Cycle's polycarbonate canopies feature the company's exclusive Quantum® hardcoating for the ultimate in scratch resistance — especially important since most urban transport vehicles feature windshield wipers. Quantum hardcoating made its first appearance in 2000 on the fully enclosed, windshield wiper-equipped Benelli Adiva scooter. Vehicle testing included over one million windshield wiper cycles with water, sand and dirt... without a scratch on the Adiva's Quantum hardcoated polycarbonate canopy.
National Cycle is proud to be the world leader in windshield design and manufacturing for this exciting market.

National Cycle's highly regarded Deflector Screen™, the most-copied windshield in the world, received an upgrade in 2015. It is now made from injection-molded polycarbonate and features the company's exclusive Quantum® hardcoating and 3-Year Unbreakable Warrany.
Like the original Deflector Screen from 1980, it will fit almost any motorcycle ever made.

Not willing to be left behind, the iconic 1995 Street Shield™ received the same material upgrade and redesign as the Deflector Screen™.

Big things sometimes come in small packages. National Cycle's new Mohawk™ utilizes the exact same mounting hardware as the world-famous and historic Flyscreen®. That means it will fit almost any bike, while offering increased wind protection.

National Cycle dived into the deep end of the pool with its new line of windshields for popular side-by-side UTV's.
These Quantum® hardcoated polycarbonate windshields feature a Wash'n'Wipe™ option with the washer/wiper hardware and motor pre-installed.
The line of windshields also include regular full-size windshields as well as low one-quarter windshields.

The functionality of National Cycle's SxS UTV Windshields is further extended by their unique AirFlares™, which are dimensionally sculpted to divert wind from entering the vehicle cockpit.
Like the windshields, AirFlares are made from sturdy polycarbonate with National Cycle's exclusive Quantum® hardcoating.
