Project developed at Concordia University to design and develop a bicycle that would overcome a list of constraints and customer needs. Designed as a hinged recumbent bike that used a gas spring (as that found in your everyday office chair) to make it shift from one position to another. The higher position for when one is in the city, thus giving them a shorter wheelbase, better visibility and maneuverability. The lower position, for when the rider wants to utilize the advantages of a traditional recumbent bike.
