What are the technical products of bicycle that are innovative but disappeared?

Bicycle innovation evolves every year at a great speed.

Hydraulic disc brakes, short nozzle saddles, gravel bikes, etc. are accepted by users.

These are facts, but on the other hand, many products did not become popular without seeing the sun.These are completely abolished, and some are likely to be revived.

Let's see what kind of product is available.

Hydraulic rim brake for road bike

Magura was successful with the hydraulic rim brake on the H33 line until the disc brake was widespread on the 90s Mountain Bike for the hydraulic rim brake.

In 2012, Cervele adopted Magura's RT8 TT hydraulic rim brake on a P5 Time Trial Bike.Team Garmin rider used the same brake on many road bikes.

SRAM also released both hydraulic disks and rim brakes in 2013.RED22 and Force22.

However, it is now an era where hydraulic disc brakes are the mainstream, and the rim braking itself is about to lose.

In particular, it can be said that hydraulic rim brakes have declined without any popularity.It may be one of the many products that do not know.

Spinergy Wheel PHOTO Amazon

Carbon spokes without nipples have been tested many times, from the iconic SPINERGY wheels of the 90's to the SPENGLE trial, developed in the mid -2010s.However, it is not yet widely used except for trucks.

There are several reasons for this.In the case of SpinergyRev-X, it is a particularly sharp edge of carbon blade.It is easy to imagine that if your hand is touched by a car, it will be difficult.

However, in the case of SPENGLE, there was no need to adjust the tension of the spoke, and the idea of simplifying tubeless installation without worrying about the rim tape above the hole in the spoke was wonderful.

However, the difficulty was that the weight was quite high and the price was high.

SPENGLE OHOTO SPENGLE

Although it is not very popular on the road, the former world champion Nino Shooter has won many victories in the Mountain Bike.

In this year's Tour de France, there was also a Blackincs 5 -spoke wheel.FFWD also sells two baton wheels.

It will not be completely gone, but there are many parts that need to be considered a little in terms of price and weight.

Instead of fixing shoes and pedals to the predetermined position using a mechanical spring and clip, Magped and J-Pedals have developed clip-lespedals using the power of magnets.。

If it is a magnet, there is no need to put on it.But the concern is whether it will come off when a pedal is rowed violently.

J-PEDALS PHOTO J-PEDALS

The reason why this new type of clip -lespedal is not actually spread is that the price of the pedal, which is just starting cycling, has a very high pedal price.

Magped Road costs 189,00 € (about 24,000 yen).For beginners, this price is too high.

Speaking of bicycle indicators, there was a flash -type indicator behind a bicycle where children were riding.

You've never seen young people.

This site also introduces products with direction indicators on indicators and helmets.

However, it is true that bicycle products are narrow, so it is difficult to understand even if they are instructed.It's easy to understand if the left and right distance is like a car.

After all, when a signal to the back car is signal, using a hand signal and looking at the opponent's driver can be safely linked.

In 2020, indik8a has released an indicator on the back of his hand.This would be easy to see even at night.If you shake with a large swing, it will be easy to see from the driver.

For indicators, you will need to make more progress.

Tannus announced its first solid bike tires in 2004.I can't punk because it doesn't put air.

It will be perfect for commuting because it will wear only about 1mm in a 6,000km run.

However, installation cannot be done unless it is a specialty store.It takes time to catch up with the comfort and speed of clinchers and tube.

However, there are some people who have achieved around Japan with these tires, so if you never want to puncture it may be good.It's not suitable for road bikes.

However, the development of solid tires is progressing, and Smart Tire Company has announced a new aluminum alloy tire technology based on the same research and design as the tires created for Mars.

It is curious because it will be sold practically in 2022.

Recently, the cut of a hole -blown saddle has become the mainstream, but on the contrary, there is also a Shark saddle with fins.

The idea was to improve power, reduce rotation, and promote the right posture when riding.

Finn protrudes 40mm from the saddle, and if you are not sitting correctly, it will be painful ....。

Well, no one is accepted.

If the price is a little more suppressed, will it become widespread?

There was such a product.If the downhill or the wind is tight, the rider's voice may not be heard.

Catears's Airstreamz product reduces noise by attaching something like a cat's ear to a helmet strap.

AirStreamz functions like a cat's ear fur, protects the ears, and weakens the wind.

According to CAT EARS, wind noise depends on the speed, riding position, head shape, and turbulence, so the level of wind noise decreases by 14 to 16 DBA at 20 to 20k Hz.It is said that the sound pressure level decreases by 75%.

There are more than 75,000 customers in more than 50 countries and are sold on Amazon.

Somehow, it seems to be itchy if you put it on, but the sound will certainly decrease, so the official website will tell you the sound you compared.

Although it is a product I have never seen, the company's best -selling product is Amazon sales.Well, there are various products.
