Security device for motorcycle triallist (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

scrambler

I believe this is a double definition.

'security device' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'motorcycle triallist' is the second definition.
(scrambler is a type of motorcycle)

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for scrambler that I've seen before include "muddler?" , "one on motorcycle" , "Telephone security device" , "One hurrying to take off" , "Biker" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
