Copenhagen Wheel for bicycle

NYC is a city without almost any acclivity and with lots of bike paths. Even though, people ride bicycles much less than they could. Why? Besides all the economic and environmental incentives and health benefits that come with the activity, it is also true that you will get sweaty even in the winter, doesn't matter your strategy.

What if you could keep all the good parts and cut down the sweat?

This is the promise of the Copenhagen Wheel. A device developed by researchers at MIT that can be snap onto your bike to store the energy produced with your pedaling. And the best thing, you can use that energy to help you when you need it most: going uphill. Finally you can start thinking about buying a bike.
