The Dancing Rider is a fascinating little RC kit. The unique steering involves a servo tipping the front of the tricycle left and right to effect movement in the chosen direction. The front forks, which are completely uncontrolled, flip back and forth with that tipping action in a semi-controlled manner using a small spring in the top. That's a really dry description of a 1/10th RC bike that's really fun to build and drive. :) Note that it doesn't come with any of the following, which you'll have to source on your own: Batteries OR a holder. Transmitter/Receiver ESC It's just the kit, the unpainted shell, and a motor.

Tamiya Dancing Rider Trike is more unusual than just having three wheels. The whole steering is done by actually balancing half of the body, where battery is located. There is no link from the steering servo to the front wheel. This unusual setup makes it driving experience like nothing ese in the RC World. For the power, I opted to upgrade stock brushed motor with a Brushless setup I just happen to have on my hand. It is not the fastest vehicle I own, since the motor is only 380 in size of a 1/8 scale vehicle. However, as I mention before, unusual steering mechanism, trike chassis makes it for totally different RC experience versus bike or a car. If you are looking for that different experience, Tamiya Dancing Rider trike is definitely for you
