The best part? About the same time the safety bicycle came along, Mr. Firestone discovered how to vulcanize rubber and invented the pneumatic tire; two inventions that were meant for each other.
I wonder what people who invented these bicycles back in the 1800's would think if they were told that someday a bicycle will become propelled by electricity as they are today.
Don’t think they would be too surprised, people were already experimenting with electric bicycles at the end of the 19th century, and electric car production started at the same time.
Back when every new thing was trying to be creative. Now Every bike is the same but why not go around in entirely different designs like these? 2 wheels 3 wheels 4 wheels, big wheels small wheels. Just make it safe and with a brake and I'd ride any of them.
I love how the narration is super jazzed and excited then goes right into an unenthusiastic 'eight miles an hour.'
8 mph is how much my bicycle speed.
Love the Narrator's sarcasm
"These daredevils off at... 8 mph"
All jazzed and enthusiastic and then... INSTANT deflation. You could hear the 'are you shitting me?' in the tone.
0:17 Imagine being chased by a dude with that bike today. Pure horror
Those bikes look interesting and fun to ride.
Yes my boy
Frankly I wanna see a modern spin on that velociped.
“Daredevils flung themselves headlong into the saddle and dash along at almost….. 8 miles an hour” 😂
How wonderful this is to watch. 😆 I love how it's Victorian, antique and so fascinating. Cheerio you rascal! 🚲
It's not Victorian.
Imagine how little the modern Dutch daily commuter has changed!
0:45 it weighs "only" 65lb classic!
😂
my bicycle weight too much than that
My bike probably weighs 20 pounds but it’s a speed bike
But it said 63 pounds not 65
How did we figure out trains before push bikes
Rower(bike) jest najlepszym przyjacielem człowieka w odkrywaniu Świata..
Those were the days. :D
The gentleman wearing the hat looks like he is doing a monty python sketch.
Cool video and gave you a thumbs up.

I think you will find that Robert William Thomson invented the pneumatic tyre.
haha "old fruits".

My mountain bicycle looks like a hypersonic vehicle compared to those bikes.
Изящные,я бы хотел прокатиться на всех!
fascinating

Great videotape
I'm still looking for a Royal Enfield bicycle 5 speed internal gears on a Sturmey Archer hub, produced in 1946 by Royal Enfield ❓❓❓
❤very nice👍😎🌐🇵🇭
0:16 the moonwalk bike
Daredevils lmao! Way too cool

Basically Safety Bikes are the grandmothers of City Bikes
some of the bikes looked more like early designs of mechanical cars.
очень познавательно
Super
The rascal 🤣🤣

"ROLLICKING"
dicycles are future with roof
