		The Flitzer was available either in a manually driven version or came powered by a 38cc Victoria or 98cc Sachs engine and had a steel body.
		In 1953 after Fend was approached by Professor Willi Messerschmitt along with his idea for a two seater version the Fend Flitzer was taken over by Messerschmitt and Fend used the Flitzer to form the basis of a two seater version; the Fend Kabinenroller FK 175 (
		In 2000 Fend created a new prototype vehicle that was a 4-wheeler, though the rear wheels were postioned very close to each other giving the illusion of a 3-wheeler.

	Micro Car History
		Known as the Fend Flitzer (meaning flitting, or darting quickly), it had a strange multi-faceted aluminium-panelled body, suspension composed of rubber-in-torsion ele- ments and a two-stroke, single-cylinder 98cc Fichtel & Sachs proprietary engine driving the rear wheel by chain.
		Fend found, much to his surprise, that he was inundated by requests for the vehicle not from disabled people but from those seeking economical transport.
		Fend had neither the facilities nor the finance to launch such a venture, but he did have many contacts in the aircraft industry, currently in a parious state so he approached Messerschmitt who were anxious to get their Regenburg factory back into production.

		Based on its popularity, Fend reversed the design, placing the two wheels at the front and the single one at the rear.
		He enclosed it in a light aluminum body, and the "Fend Flitzer" was born.
		Fend designed a larger version, called the Kabinenroller (scooter with cabin), which looked like the cabin of a light plane mounted on three wheels.

		The aircraft lineage of the Flitzer design can be easily spotted when you realise the method of entry is like that of a fighter plane—a hinged cockpit.
		Fend developed it further, increasing the size of the engine and refining other aspects of the vehicle.
		Willi Messerschmitt had seen promise in Fend's Flitzer design, and saw commercial interest for his ideas outside of vehicles solely aimed at disabled ex-servicemen.

		Based upon the Fend Flitzer, a three-wheel two-seat scooter/cyclecar created by Fritz Fend in the late 1940s, these three-wheelers not only provided the German public with an affordable and economical means of transportation, they also gave the Messerschmitt factory a product with which to get back into business.
		In 1952 Fend approached Willy Messerschmitt with his ideas of mass-producing his Flitzer at the company’s Regensburg factory.
		Though there were some refinements to Fend’s Flitzer, the first Messerschmitts, designated KR-175, (Kabinenroller meaning cabin scooter, and 175 being the displacement of the first engines used) began rolling out of the factory as 1953 models.

		The Davis Divan was an American early post-war effort on three wheels that must've been a challenge to steer--especially at speed!
		The Fend Flitzer was a much more compact German effort, and with its single wheel in the back rather than the front, for better stability and handling.
		During the 1950s, Europe went through a microcar boom, with dozens of manufacturers sprouting up.

		Fend hatte den Wagen eigentlich als Krankenfahrstuhl für einen doppelt beinamputierten Kriegsheimkehrer konstruiert, der sich mit dem Flitzer ähnlich wie mit einem hebelgetriebenen Fahrrad mit Kabine fortbewegen konnte.
		Wie die meisten der noch vorhandenen Exemplare hat unser Fend-Flitzer bereits einen Motor.
		Der im Jahr 2000 verstorbene Konstrukteur Fritz Fend (links im Bild), der uns gut bekannt war, war überaus erstaunt, als er einen seiner Flitzer 1999 auf einer Kleinwagenschau wiederentdeckte.

		Klein(st)wagen were an adaptation to the general market of the Krankenfahrzeuge (cars for people with war injuries) that began to appear immediately after the war.
		These ranged from wooden wheelchairs propelled by levers and arm-muscle power (I recall seeing these zooming down the Autobahn in traffic in the 1950s), to motor-powered vehicles made from bicycle parts, to Fritz Fend's 1948 Flitzer (the precursor to the Kabinenroller).
		After the War, only the very rich had full-size autos.
