Cyclotron - revolutionary bicycle with wheels without spokes
One of the unique features of the bike Cyclotron, which can not but strike the eye is the glowing blue LEDs in the wheels, which do not have spokes. If we add to this a futuristic design and a light carbon frame, you get almost a motorcycle "Tron" from the sci-fi movie. Bicycles are available on Kickstarter, fundraising campaign is still ongoing.
The space freed from the spokes, can now be used as a trunk. For this purpose, a special "basket Butterfly» (Butterfly Basket), which is easy to fold into a disc thickness of only 2 cm.
Managed by bicycle so that the company calls the built-in 18-speed E-Gear Box with electronic switching speeds and encased gearbox without chain. However, it is still not elektrobayk, unlike, for example, on the same Greyp G12S - pedaling is still required
. Glowing wheel rim are powered by lithium-ion batteries that are recharged while driving and keep the charge up to 8 hours. In addition, the bicycle is equipped with an application (for iOS and Android), which records the route, can determine its GPS location in case of theft and warns when the battery will soon be discharged headlamps.
Authors of the project "Bike of the Future" have developed an additional seat for children called Wingman, which can be attached to the side of the rear wheel. It is also possible modification of the two "wheelchair" on both sides.
However, all these technologies and design cost is not cheap. Price on Kickstarter starts from 899 euros, but at retail, this superbike will be sold not less than 1599 euros.
In the futuristic bike you can still pre-order. For example, 12-speed version will cost 900 euros, for an additional six speeds you need to put 1, 3 thousand euros, and 18-speed Cyclotron with electric transmission will cost 2, 6 thousand euro. The first customers will receive their bikes in the summer of 2017.
Currently bicycle developers are working on a special application for the Play Market, through which it will be possible to track activity and cyclist movement statistics.
