Light, nimble and boasting a design that is clean, cool and utterly contemporary, the newest member of the Range Rover Evoque family breaks cover at the Geneva Motor Show. Created by the Land Rover design team, headed up by director, Gerry McGovern, the Evoque bike is a machine designed in every aspect to deliver fast, agile and secure road-racing performance.

The main element in the construction of a bicycle is a one-piece frame of the strongest carbon fiber produced by Karbona, which is manufactured using the technology of Formula 1. Complement the design of a bicycle wheel and the increased removal of aluminum alloy coping with high-torque force on the steering wheel, which is developing the world’s best athletes, and ensure confident control at higher speeds.

Modern combination design has integrated seat tube to the frame, reducing weight and maintaining overall clarity of the lines. Components of steering system for color match the frame, inscribed with the symbolism of Range Rover and Evoque. As transmission is set 20-speed system is Shimano Ultegra.

Steering bearings are integrated into the column to reduce friction, and plug is also made of carbon fiber. In the running gear and braking system also feels close attention to the elements of luxury, which is the hallmark of all products Range Rover. They are painted in black chrome, and the seat is covered with high-grade leather with a padded grip tape and filled with silicone gel.

The wheels have been specially designed for the project Evoque and differ striking design. They are made of carbon fiber and have an aerodynamic profile and a deep plot that quickly cuts through the air and at the same time allows you to maintain stability. Steady movement is ensured by a special tread tires, which consist of a triple-density rubber with high wear resistance and grip.

Gerry McGovern, design director of Land Rover and a keen cyclist, said: – I wanted to create an indispensable accessory for the Range Rover Evoque, and what could be more perfect than the modern, beautiful, bespoke bike Evoque. As the car Range Rover Evoque, bike not only looks stunning, but is made with the closest attention to detail that ensures its excellent driving performance.

Bikes have always been our hobby, our passion and our job. Our whole life has been revolving around two wheels. We were pioneers of downhill racing in our country. We distributed cult parts in the early days of MTB and we were one of the first to offer stylish single-speed bikes in times when 21 gears were a standard. After work we would ride our city bikes to the local cafes and restaurants or take our mountain bikes for long rides in the mountains.

During all these days, Creme had been a dream that we kept in our minds, a dream that slowly grew into a strong vision of a new, special bike brand. One day, after stumbling across a bunch of beautiful old bike parts in a friends attic and realizing just how little care and attention to detail can be found in today’s city bikes, we decided that it was time to make our dream a reality.

We wanted our bikes to be simple and accessible, but at the same time they had to be a form of art, a tribute to the love for materials, details and craftsmanship. And today, when we see the finished product, we hope that you will see these values in our bikes the same way as we do. To us they are just like Italian espresso – simple, popular, but when each one is made with love and care, it becomes a small work of art.

Creme is not a mass market product, made by a huge corporation. The amount of effort that we put into designing each bicycle cannot be compared to a brand that has 100 bikes in it’s portfolio.

Munich. MINI presents the eco-friendly solution to the parking space problem in city centres. The brand is celebrating the comeback of the folding bike with a modern version of the practical means of locomotion. The special gimmick: when folded, the MINI Folding Bike fits into the boot of almost every vehicle – and most definitely into the MINI. When travelling into the city, simply park the car outside the overcrowded city centre, then continue on the bike and relax. Park & Ride with an environmentally conscious understatement!

The bike is also absolutely suitable for commuters and impresses in urban travels. When folded, it can be taken free of charge on public transport.

The MINI Folding Bike presents itself as a genuine high-tech vehicle: high-quality components, a light-weight aluminium frame and a clever folding mechanism make the trendy bike the ideal companion while travelling. The bike can be folded and unfolded in just a few seconds. The bike is folded along the crossbar and handlebars. In addition the saddle can be retracted and the pedals be folded up. This makes the bike extremely easy to handle whilst saving space. Fitted in a sleeve under the saddle is a practical transport bag. The MINI Folding Bike can easily match the riding characteristics of a “normal” bike. Weighing less than 11 kilos and equipped with 8 gears and 20-inch wheels, it is quick and versatile. The teflon-coated chain prevents annoying soiling caused by chain oil and reduces the wear and tear on the components. The comfortable gel saddle ensures comfort. Thanks to the front and rear mudguards, you can carry on peddling regardless, even in the rain. Good visibility on the road is guaranteed by the accompanying reflectors.

Even on two wheels MINI proves its unmistakable design expertise. The bike comes in exquisite matt black. Silver highlights are set by the MINI lettering on the crossbar, the brand logo on the handlebars and the Union Jack motif on the rear forks. The absolute eye-catchers are the bike chain and bell in bold neon yellow.


The MINI Folding Bike is available as of August 2011 for 499.00 Euro on the Internet at www.MINI.de/shop and from selected MINI dealers. The bike comes completely mounted. Additional accessories will soon be available.

Biking – the easy and effective way to maintain health in excellent condition. Doubly inexcusable to expose the health and lives at risk, engaging in sports activities designed to contribute to their improvement and conservation. Here are a few simple rules and guidelines to help improve the safety of cyclists and other road users.

1. Selecting and maintaining a bicycle. Buy a bicycle that meets the requirements of your height and build. In addition to regularly check the tires and brakes at least once a year, needs a professional inspection.
2. Rules of the road. Observe the rules of the road. This applies not only to drivers of motor vehicles, but also to other road users. For cyclists in the same way! To avoid accidents, be sure to know the rules of the road.
3. Bicycle helmet. Wearing a bicycle helmet is not required. But you need to know! Bicycle helmet reduces the risk of head injury by 60% for any accident! Keep this in mind, going on bike ride.
4. Sound signals. It is very important to hear and have time to react to the sounds of vehicles around you. Therefore, never wear headphones on the bike ride.
5. Serve signals. Do not forget, before, turn, turn, or change the movement – signaled to those around you, vehicles and pedestrians. To do this you need to know the appropriate hand signals to inform motorists and have a bike special tone for pedestrians.
6. Rearview mirror. During the cycling necessarily glances in the rearview mirror to watch for traffic behind you. In most cases, the rear view mirror is not attached to the bike. You have to buy it separately – for the sake of your safety.
7. Use headlights. Be sure to use lights when making a bike ride in the dark. Most likely, the lights will not be sold bundled with the bike. You can buy them at any bike shop. Do it – for your safety!
8. Keep your distance. Always keep a necessary distance between you and the car. Pay special attention to the distance between yourself and parked cars. The sudden opening of car doors – can cause an accident.
9. Remember health. Bicycle Tour – a great workout. But we should remember that a very long trip on a bike can cause dehydration. Therefore it is desirable to always have a bottle of water.
   In addition, if you ride a bike on a hot day – occasionally stop to rest and drink plenty of fluids. Be sure to apply sunscreen on exposed parts of the body and face.
10. Do not immediately develop a high speed. This can damage your muscles. At the beginning of preheat them at low speeds.

And most importantly:
Always keep your hands on the brakes at any moment you could stop the bike – if the situation gets out of control! Do not develop too much speed – you do not have time to react to a dangerous situation.

If you follow these simple rules and safety tips for cyclists – you will certainly enjoy a happy journey and a happy life! Take care!

Technological development of mankind is booming. And sometimes, successes seem to be very, very weird. Even something that seemed completely impossible yesterday, today – has already become a reality. Examples are the various gadgets and Device, audio and video of the new generation of advanced computer games, cars with a different e-filling. The list is endless. But there is one more example – the electric bike.

They say that the fuel of the future will surely be electric power. Many automakers are getting ready for this – serial electric vehicles confirmation of this. But if you change seats on the electric “green” cars – something for the future, here’s electro bicycles – already a reality.

Today the bike – it is not only a means of transportation, this is a whole philosophy. What could be more environmentally friendly than a bicycle? Well, maybe walking. But if you equip it with an electric motor to give some kind of scooter, you get a very compact and very convenient form of transport.

The fact that the electric bike has all the trumps in his pocket to gain popularity – I think nobody would deny. He is pretty easy, agile, and when necessary, for example, to overcome the rise – come to the aid of electric traction. A flat areas can be overcome by means of pedals. You can also move through an electric motor and pedals – here’s a hybrid in action. Even if you’re an amateur cyclist, then travel at speeds up to 35 kilometers per hour – pretty easy.

Bicycles are becoming more and more sophisticated. Changing the materials of manufacture, they are lighter and stronger. It is not just bikes, but works of art. And that is especially valuable that the electro bicycles currently is one of the most affordable types of hybrid vehicles.

Electric bike can be attributed to a particular type of movement. This is not just a normal bike or scooter with a gasoline engine, it is something separate. The management of electric bike do not need a driver’s license, insurance and receipt of registration numbers. And this is important for the buyer.

The main components of design are the electric bike motor and battery to full charge is needed from 2 to 8 hours depending on the model.

Advantages of the bicycle with an electric motor a huge amount. One of them – ease of maintenance. Judge for yourself – for charging the battery enough to use a standard wall outlet. If, however, when driving the battery is discharged, it is possible to get home as an ordinary bike. Electric bike – a real “green” mode of transport, which is absolutely friendly to the environment.

In the 21 century, we no longer have to reinvent the wheel, but worth it just to upgrade and improve. Currently, electro bicycles have become part of the work done. With them, the future starts today!

Reviews of new bike trends: E-bikes

Ancillotti Tomaso DHP Light (2011)

1. If we turn the pedals forward, the bicycle will move forward.
2. If we turn the pedals backward, the bicycle will move forward. This is very practical and more efficient, because we would use a different group of muscles while resting the ones we used during the usual pedal rotation.
3. If we stop turning the pedals, the bicycle will keep on moving forward by inertance.

4. On high rises, the pedals can be moved forward-backward. By doing so, we remain in the area of the greatest torque and the bicycle will keep on moving forward no matter which way we are turning the pedals.

TWO-DIRECTION MECHANISM is doing all of this automatically. Other parts of the bicycle, such as frame, brakes, transmission, wheels, chain and chain-wheels etc., remain unchanged. And so, we get improvement, along with good, already existing solutions.

If used with internal combustion engine, the two-direction mechanism would replace the crankshaft. For the drive of the vehicle it would enable the use of overall torque made by the piston. That would save the fuel, which is very significant, considering today’s expenses of searching and exploiting of oil.

Finally, keep in mind that the video shows the functional model of TWO-DIRECTION MECHANISM. Its shape could be in many ways readjusted for actual needs, while retaining all of its characteristics. I already have a complete projet for the bicycle. For internal combustion engine, I have a project containing the main characteristics.
