Josh s-a gandit sa imbunatateasca semnificativ siguranta de a merge pe bicicleta in trafic. Cum e destul de greu sa schimbi atitudine soferilor fata de biciclisti, cultura unei tari care nu da doi bani pe biciclete si omul de pe ele (cum ar fi o tara in forma de peste de care stim si noi) sau pur si simplu sa cresti atentia soferilor fata de biciclisi asa … dintr-o data, baiatul asta s-a gandit sa lucreze la niste lucruri pe care chiar le poate schimba repede.

A integrat in bicicleta gandita de el mai multe elemente esentiale cum ar fi: bec de frana care straluceste atunci cand bicicleta franeaza, schimbator de viteze care poate fi actionat si cand stai pe loc, sistem de franare”inchis” care functioneaza la fel de bine pe orice vreme, cadru puternic reflectorizant … si multe altele.

It has a dynamo hub in the front, which powers the LED headlight and daytime running lights.  It also has a special tail light that monitors the voltage coming from the front wheel, and when it senses that you’re braking, it lets cars behind you know by getting momentarily brighter.  That’s right, this bicycle has a brake light.

The brakes themselves are fully enclosed, which means they’ll work just fine in any kind of weather.  Instead of a derailleur, it has an 8-speed internally geared rear hub.  It’s a bit heavier than an externally geared drivetrain, but it’s also simpler, more compact, and much lower maintenance.  Most importantly, a geared hub allows for shifting while stationary—a valuable feature when you always stop at red lights.

It also has full fenders for rainy commutes, puncture resistant tires and tubes, a double kickstand, and a chainguard (because I don’t like strapping down my pant leg).

This bike would be pretty cool if the features stopped there.  But they don’t.  There’s one more component that makes this the safest bike on the road, and you can’t buy it in any bike shop.  I’m talking of course, about the retro-reflective frame.
