Forgotten Bicycle Technology

Thats a built in bike lock yeah ? Seems like a good idea (Dutch bikes have them) Wont stop a thief walking off with your bike but a good backup/deterrant lock I suppose

It's not really effective as an anti-theft measure - I'm sure you could bust it with ease, but it's great for keeping the wheel straight when the bike's on the sidestand - especially if it has a heavy basket on the front. Very easy to ride off with it locked though :-)

There's a girl I see on my way to uni sometimes with one of these on her bike. It's not forgotten yet...

I've seen them on sale in shops!

nice horn
mooing sounds clucking sounds and probably a couple of ambulance and police sirens to boot !

Have you seen the 20th Anniversary Edition?

I had one of them!

Maguras are brilliant, i had a set of the bright red tomac edition. solid braking but a bugger to set up and maintain. Out in Berlin last week I saw hundreds of bikes with them.

They are incredibly useful, potentially life saving if you ever ride on major carriage ways.

gt's that aren't track or mtb frames.

Erm arent we forgetting BMX's?

I guess it has two wheels.. But I wouldn't call it specifically bicycle technology in the sense of everything else on this thread
