R-Bike moto transformer

R-Bike

Erik Brinkman, inventor y diseñador ha creado esta R-Bike con chasis de geometría variable para que los mas enganchados a las motos podamos tener una cruiser y una RR sin tener que cambiar de moto, solo con ajustar el chasis de nuevo diseño en forma de tijera.

R-Bike

La moto además cuenta con suspensiones multi link, tanto delante como detrás y está diseñada alrededor de un motor monocilindrico. El asiento, los estribos y el manillar pueden cambiar de posición para ajustarse a la talla de cualquier piloto y de cualquier configuración de moto. Ni que decir tiene que también permite mezclas como la de tener una Trail con el asiento a la altura de una custom.

R-Bike

La moto de momento solo es un diseño por ordenador, pero ya está buscando inversores, porque sus planes son producir las primeras motos en marzo de 2008. Todo un reto hasta para el mas emprendedor.

El diseño no lo veo muy acertado, una lastima porque la idea es buena…

salu2!!!

Es como el MECANO de toda la vida pero a escala real.
Le van a pedir royalties.

Lea el folleto de MARCO en el INFORME
Mirada un poco más profunda.
Pienso que usted verá por qué esto debe ser el modo que es
a fin de moverse en equilibrio apropiado.

The most common question I am asked is ….
"Why ShapeShft?"

I respond ….

1. DOWN a Steep Hill
As you start a steep slow descend, you stretch your bike out a bit
with feet stretched on pointing downhill
and the seat much lower and you tuck your body rearward.

2. UP a Steep Hill
As you ascend the hill,
you start fairly stretchy and slowly scrunch as you go up
to let the ShapeShift pull-it up
and you need more tight control as you do those last few feet of climb.

3. Tight Squeeze
When the trail goes tight between trees you need squeeze it in a bit,
then stretch it back on the other side.

4. Sharp Curves
You approach a sharp curve and need a little more belly clearance
and you need a shorter more nimble wheelbase,
so you scrunch into the curve and stretch back out of the curve
pulling itself out of the curve..

5. Creek Crossing
You approach the creek and so you scrunch high
to keep the nostrils tucked high and dry behind the side-pods
that also keep splashes of water deflected from the intake and the rider,
and the tailpipe tilts down to keep water from backing up into it.
Then you stretch to let the ShapeShifting help pull up onto the other bank.

6. High Speed Cruising
You are riding in your most comfortable position
and you want or need to go smoother faster.
You are only a 10-inch wide frame, so if you stretch it out,
you have a longer faster more stable arrow in the wind.

7. High Speed Braking
You are stretched out and cruising the open road
and suddenly a deer pops up onto the road and just stands there.
So you clamp the binders full-on
and the bike frame slowly shortens as the bike slows,
because a shorter wheelbase stops quicker with better control.
Stopping benefits from a wheelbase best suited
for hard braking at that momenary speed,

8. Lock-n-Stretch over a Log
You kiss up to a log and plant the rear brake and then stretch
and in so doing "crawl" the bike.
The bike comes with a 21 inch front wheel to help in this option.

9. Pulling out of a Hole
There you are stuck in the mudhole. Seen it a thousand times.
Now you don't worry about pulling the bike out.
You can stretch to both spread out the weight
and use the stretch-crawl method of "inch-worming" your way out
using the frame's ShapeShifting.

10. In a SideSlide
The bike might want to scrunch a bit more
to help make the SideSlide easier to control.

11. If the Road gets Rough
The bike might want to raise up a bit
and shorten its wheelbase for better control.

12. When life Leaves you Short
The bike allows anyone to easily mount with the seat in the lowest position
and yet still have the flexibility to ride a high seat off-road.

Parece que tendremos que hacer otro post sobre el tema para que el autor pueda explicar todas sus ideas.
It seems that I must write another post to let explain the author all his ideas.
