sketching

the idea

 

this is the system that holds the lock cable, it works like a measuring tape, you just have to pull ot the cable and when you let it loose it just spirngs back inside

first lock prototype

ergonomy of the bike was very important, I have been into biking almost 10 years and took all that experience to know what things we should change in our design to make the geometry more user friendly

laser cuting and bending of the chainstay, made from aluminum

assembled chainstays

we welded the chainstays to the front part of a bike I had hanging around.

the structure for the body, made with 3d printing, this part holds the battery for the lights

structure of the frame

we covered the 3d printed structure with ptg to achive the look we wanted

first painting attempt, the conditions were really bad so we didn´t got a good finish; we ended up painting it again.

we reused a broken fork, using epoxy putty

finished 100% working model

anti-theft bolts

you can only unscrew the bolt using this special tool.
