Patchelicious Posted June 20, 2018 Share I'm holding my money until the motor powered penny farthing gets the green light. Monster truck of note on the trails. Hmmmmm... just last week, coincidence? I think not! Mark Beaumont beats 127-year-old Penny Farthing record Scots cyclist Mark Beaumont rode 21.92 miles (35.3km) in an hour on the vintage-style bike to beat the 127-year-old British record at Herne Hill Velodrome.But the Scottish cyclist was 290 yards short of the world record of 22 miles and 150 yards.Mark holds the record for cycling around the world, which he did in 2017 in 79 days, 44 fewer than the previous record Yo-Yo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hairy Posted June 20, 2018 Share On the subject of e-bikes, Specialized had this motorcross wannabe concept bike out front of their booth. The bike is a concept that Robert Egger created and he really wanted to utilize the Levo technology in a bike that resembled a motorbike (Egger is a big moto fan). It's safe to say he succeeded, even going as far as adjusting wheel and tire size to represent the differences seen on an MX bike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
