José Hurtado. A Different Kind of Concept Bike. Posted by Ray | 28 Aug 2012 | Comments (37) Back in March, we caught a tantalizing glimpse of "FLIZ," an unconventional (to say the least) concept bicycle that was on view at the first annual Munich Creative Business Week.
With nary a project page (their current site remains scant on details) to follow up with the design team, we were pleasantly surprised to see that they published the project earlier this month, as an entry for the James Dyson Award: FLIZ comes from the German "flitzen" and means speeding... with your feet... Based on the very first bike—the "Laufrad"—it is a velocipede concept of healthy, ecological mobility in overcrowded urban space. Its laminated, innovative frame with 5 point belt system does not only mark the outstanding appearance, but first of all it provides a comfortable, ergonomic ride between running and biking. Nulla Bike : Bradford Waugh Design. INgSOC: The Electric Hybrid Bike. Posted in: Transportation More than just your standard bike, the INgSOC “combines the aerodynamic shapes of triathlon designs, flexible handling of traditional bikes, and advanced hybrid power technology into one super-efficient commuting machine that.”
The battery which powers the motor, integrated front and rear lights, as well as a charging dock for communication devices, entertainment, or navigation is directly charged from the rider’s own energy output to maximize efficiency. [Source] Tags: bike, electric bike, hybrid bike.
