Bicycles for cheap at velondo.ie Bicycle Shop

The history of the bicycle goes back many centuries. In the 19th century, the Karlsruhe forester Drais developed the predecessor of today's bicycle, the draisine. It was the first steerable means of transport powered by muscle power with two wheels running in tandem. Drais himself called his "bicycle" a running machine. The front wheel was steerable and the driver of the running machine sat between the two wheels and had to push himself off with his feet on the ground. Nowadays, these running bikes are often seen again among children who cannot yet ride a bicycle and can use the running bike to train their balance in a playful way.

Historical development: from the running wheel to the bicycle

With the development of the pedal crank on the front wheel, the running wheel mutated into a bicycle. To increase the speed of the bicycle, the penny-farthing was first developed in 1870. The front wheel of the penny-farthing was significantly larger than the rear wheel. However, the penny-farthing did not catch on because of the high risk of injury when getting on and off the bicycle and when riding over bumps. The chain drive invented by the Frenchman Sergent in 1887 heralded the demise of the penny-farthing. The chain drive on the rear wheel of the bicycle meant a decoupling of drive and steering. This made the bicycle easier to steer, it became more stable and the bicycle's handling was much safer due to the changed seating position between the front and rear wheel. With the development of the first bicycle hub by Ernst Sachs, the bicycle literally gained momentum. Until then, the pedals of the bicycle always had to be pedalled because there was no freewheel, but the "Torpedo" freewheel hub gear with integrated coaster brake developed by Ernst Sachs in 1903 provided a remedy. Four years later, Fichtel und Sachs introduced the first 2-speed hub gears for bicycles. In addition to the hub gears, there are also derailleur gears. The Frenchman Paul de Vivie is considered to be its inventor. Frustrated by the rigid gear ratio of his bicycle, which could not be reduced for uphill rides, he constructed a second chainring at the front of his bicycle. He also tinkered with a front derailleur that allowed him to change the gear ratio while riding. Gone were the days when other cyclists would overtake him on a hill. Later, he added more sprockets to the front chainring of his bicycle. The derailleur was further developed by the Italian Campagnolo. Like Paul de Vivie, he was also a passionate cyclist. Frustrated by the outcome of a bicycle race, he tinkered with derailleur gears until he was able to change several gears using derailleur gears. Campagnolo is the founder of the bicycle company of the same name, which still enjoys world renown among cycling enthusiasts today. Another milestone in the history of the bicycle is the invention of the rubber tube. If the stories are to be believed, the Scotsman John Loyd Dunlop was so annoyed by the noise his son's tricycle was making that he developed a kind of pneumatic tyre, which he filled with air and placed around the rims. Actually, this tells the story of the bicycle's origin in broad strokes. Of course, much has happened in the course of the last century in terms of further development.

The triumph of the bicycle continues

Bicycles became lighter and lighter without losing stability. Gearsticks, brakes, lighting and other accessories have been revised and refined. But the general design of all bicycles has remained roughly the same. As a means of transport, the bicycle still enjoys great popularity today. It is probably the cheapest means of transport. However, it is not only easy on the owner's wallet, but also on the environment. In view of rising petrol prices and increased environmental awareness, more and more working people are switching from cars to bicycles or public transport. This switch from car to bike is supported not least by the health insurance companies, which hope that the switch to cycling will result in healthier and more cost-effective members.

Whoever has the choice is spoilt for choice: various types of bicycles for a wide range of uses on offer at fahrrad24.co.uk

The types of bicycles available on the market are as diverse as the areas in which they are used. There are city bikes, racing bikes, mountain bikes, BMX bikes, trekking bikes, cross bikes, hybrid bikes, e-bikes, special bikes for women and children, tricycles for older people and people with disabilities, recumbent bikes with 2 or 3 and not to forget unicycles. The variety of types and brands is overwhelming. Finding the right bike for your personal needs is not that easy. What do I want to do with the bike? Do I ride a lot or a little? Do I ride only on paved roads or mainly off-road? Once I have answered these questions for myself, I have roughly decided on the type of bike I want. If I only ride off-road, I need a mountain bike. If I am looking for a bike for my daily commute to work, I should look at a city bike. If I want to ride my new bike not only on paved roads but also off-road, trekking or cross bikes come into question. Racing bikes are more for sporty, ambitious riders who are looking for speed.

Electric bikes are on the rise among young and old

.

Electric bikes not only appeal to older people, but more and more younger people can get excited about electric bikes (also called pedelecs or e-bikes). Electric bike or electric bicycle are generic terms for bicycles with motor assistance. On a pedelec, an electric motor assists the cyclist with a maximum of 250 watts or a maximum speed of 25 km/h. If you want to go faster, you have to go faster. If you want to go faster, you have to pedal faster. From a legal point of view, pedelecs have the same status as bicycles. This means that helmets are not compulsory for these motor-assisted bicycles and a driving licence is not required. In addition to the normal pedelecs, there is also the so-called S-class - the fast pedelecs. Their motor assistance is only switched off at a maximum speed of 45 km/h. For this type, you need an operating licence. For this type, you need an operating licence, a moped driving licence or another valid driving licence. E-bikes in the narrower sense can also be ridden without muscle power. An electric drive that can be started via a twist grip or shift knob then provides the necessary speed. However, if you want to ride faster than 20 km/h, it is once again a case of "it's up to the man or woman".

Wide selection of suitable bicycle accessories in the velondo.co.uk shop

Once you have finally decided on a type of bike, the agony of choice continues, because not all racing bikes are the same, not all trekking bikes are the same and so on. For maximum riding pleasure, the first thing that is important is the right frame height. Important for determining the optimal frame height is not only the height of the cyclist, but also his or her stride length. You can easily determine the frame height HIER. Once you have determined the right frame height, the fine-tuning begins: gears, brakes, lights, saddle, cup holder, anti-theft device, luggage rack, mudguard, bell, etc. In order for a bicycle to be roadworthy, it must be equipped with the following components: a bell with a bright sound, two brake systems that work independently of each other, bicycle lighting (front and rear reflectors) and bicycle pedals that are reflective to the front and rear Other accessories are not obligatory but are usually very useful.
