  • Montague Launches Edgy New Folding Bike for Style Conscious Men Messenger Inspired Boston Model Delivers a Lightweight Design and a Compact Fold
    Montague Launches Edgy New Folding Bike for Style Conscious Men Messenger Inspired Boston Model Delivers a Lightweight Design and a Compact Fold CAMBRIDGE, MA – July 22, 2016 – Montague Bikes, the leader in full-size folding bikes, has launched a new bicycle inspired by the sleek, lightweight and durable bikes first made popular by bike messengers. The single speed and fixed gear bikes often used by couriers deliver a quick and responsive ride with a sleek look that appeals to urban male consumers. Ideal for tackling city streets and making fast getaways, the Montague Boston has the added benefit of being able to fold into a slim profile for the train, car trunk, or city apartment. The Boston is the first full-size single speed bike with a folding design. The bike, which comes in a stylish and minimal matte black, also includes a flip-flop rear hub that can be switched to allow either a fixed-gear or free-wheel setup. Folding bikes, such as the Boston are ideally suited for urban living. They allow for quick and easy access to any point in a city, and allow riders to avoid gridlock traffic and paying for public parking. Unlike standard bikes, the Boston can be quickly folded and brought inside workplaces and other establishments, thereby protecting it from the elements and possible theft. When folded, the Boston compacts to just 36 inches wide, 28 inches high and 12 inches deep, perfect for tight storage spaces. It also weighs only 24 lbs, making it extremely light and portable. Like all Montague bikes, the Boston includes the patented DirectConnectTM folding system that provides unmatched frame stiffness for superior ride quality, and can be folded and unfolded in less than 20 seconds.

Market domain Industry domain Market Industry attractiveness attractiveness Macro-level Mission, aspirations, AbilityAbility to to execute execute propensity for Team onon CSFs CSFs risk domain Connectedness up, down, across value chain Micro-level Target segment benefits Sustainable and attractiveness advantage What makes a sports team successful? It depends upon the sport. For most teams, the need for talented, conditioned, well-trained athletes and a competent coaching staff are obvious requirements. Yet, beyond these fundamental criteria, no two sports have the same critical success factors. Chapter7.qxd 28/4/06 2:10 pm Page 148 Take for example basketball, football and polo. Successful basketball teams must have players with the hand-eye coordination to shoot the ball accurately. Having tall players doesn’t hurt, either, of course. On the other hand, football (soccer) is played largely with the feet, so hand–eye coordination doesn’t matter very much. Agility and an ability to control the ball while keeping one’s head and eyes up are critical, however. A polo team’s success depends on both the athletes and the horses. As in basketball and football, the athletes need to have a good shot, but they must also be able to make this shot while riding a horse at high speed. In all three sports, endurance also matters – the fittest team often wins. In each of these sports, different factors are critical to success. Height and shooting ability make a big difference in basketball. Foot skills and the ability to maintain possession of the ball are important in football.

    DG504 | The Dutch way of biking Chester Maessen Yannick Brouwer Sway Leung Lisa Vork 1 Table of Contents Introduction • Market ● End user insight ● Channel ● Competition • Value Proposition ● Concept ● Benefits ● Moneyflow • Technology ● Functions & Modules ● Needed Capabilities • Dynamics ● Market ● Technology ● Risk assessment • Partnerships & Supply chain ● In-house & outsourced technology • Road map in 4 years 2 Introduction As final task for this assignment we were asked to design an own product line. In order to do this properly we went through several exercises to gain enough information to be able to set a successful product on the market. The product we want to design is a bicycle. Along the way we discovered VANMOOF, who has kind of a similar vision as we have. Therefore we used a lot of their insights in our research. First we investigated the market. We needed to make a persona and state the needs, desires and problems this persona might face to find out what product it would need. The next step was to find out what the best way is to sell our product, how we could reach our users best. After that, It was useful for us to look into the competition we would face. That way we could make sure to add something new and different to the market, and not only be copying. Now we have some more background information, second up was a value proposition. We made a first concept description with help of the information we gathered during the market research. On the basis of this concept description we made a value ladder to see if every aspect of the concept made sense, if we could trace the functional specifications back to certain values.

  • Design and Fabrication of Hybrid Half Bike
    ISSN: 2350-0328 International Journal of Advanced Research in Science, Engineering and Technology Vol. 4, Issue 12 , December 2017 Design and Fabrication of Hybrid Half Bike K.Kandavel, S.Munees Babu, R.R.Jai Kishan Kumar, *N.Rajkumar U.G. Student, Department of Automobile Engineering, K.L.N College of Engineering, Pottapalayam, Tamilnadu, India *Associate Professor, Department of Automobile Engineering, K.L.N College of Engineering, Pottapalayam, Tamilnadu, India ABSTRACT: In technological world the vehicle plays an important role but it’s also has its own faults such as creating pollution and emission. In order to overcome these problems we have to use alternate vehicles. There are several available sources and one of the solutions is Hybrid half bike. The word Hybrid means two or more amount of energy sources. In this project mechanical and electrical energy is used and also it is a hybrid of segway and half bike. In this type of bikes, frames are fabricated by complicated design and it is user friendly. The important specification of the bike is that by folding the bike it can be easily carried to any place and it is affordable for common man. Less number of linkages is used to fold the bike. This paper aims at evaluating the entire existing foldable half bike and proposing a compact foldable hybrid half bike by using three bar mechanism. It is fabricated with MS Plate to reduce the total weight of the bike. The fabricated bike can be considered as the hand luggage and proposed hybrid half bike is designed in such a way that it is foldable by providing fasteners at the joints.

  • Solitary Perfection One Rider’S Pursuit of Artisanal Purity
    SOLITARY PERFECTION One rider’s PURSUIT OF ARTISANAL PURITY BY GARY J. BOULANGER PHOTOGRAPHY BY BRIAN VERNOR N AN UNSEASONABLY WARM AND SUN- ny Sunday afternoon last March, several of the world’s best bicycle-frame builders gathered in a crowded pizzeria in San Francisco’s SoMa district. Among the ranks were a veritable ‘who’s who’ of bicycle craftsmanship: Steve Potts, Bruce Gordon, Paul Sadoff (Rock Lobster), Brent Steelman, Jeremy Sycip and Steve Rex, lining the walls with some of the best two-wheeled eye candy under one roof. San Diego surf-jazz twins The Mattson 2 lit up the place with their unique sound as patrons milled around the piz- zeria with the esteemed builders, all enjoying wood-fired Neapolitan pizza made by New Jersey native Anthony Mangieri. This wiry, heavily tattooed proprietor of Una Piz- za Napoletana conceived this gathering—billed as ‘Ruota Libera 2011’—along with Soulcraft’s owner, Sean Walling. Mangieri, who speaks in whispering tones reminiscent of Alec Baldwin and has the hard-edged veneer of a skate- boarding, punk-rock bassist, opened this pizzeria at 11th and Howard, catty-corner to California Chopper and walk- ing distance from the DNA Lounge—a popular music venue that’s hosted the likes of Metallica, Prince and Green Day. Prick Mangieri’s finger on Monday and he’ll bleed chain lube. Prick his finger on Wednesday and he’ll bleed buffalo mozzarella cheese. For such a colorful character, his world is purely black and white. The 40-year-old moved his pizzeria from New York City’s East Village to San Francisco in September 2010.
