HISTORY bicycle

Definition

Bicycles are simple transportation of objects, without the motor so that in Indonesia known as the train winds

History, ancestors are thought to originate from the French bicycle. According to the newspaper's history, the country has been since the beginning of the 18th century two-wheel transportation to know who called velocipede. Years, velocipede be the only term that refers to the results of two-wheeled vehicle design that is certain, yet familiar iron construction. The model is also still "primitive". Some say without cranks, pedals steering stick (handlebars). They say cranks and handlebars are familiar, but the construction of the timber.

Is a German named the Baron von Drais Karls Sauerbronnt noteworthy as one falsifies velocipede. In 1818, von Sauerbronn create two-wheeled transportation to support the work efficiency. As the head gamekeeper Baden, he does need high mobility transportation. However, the model seems still ambiguous, between bicycles and horse-drawn carriage. So that people nicknamed the Baron's creation as a dandy horse.

New in 1839, Kirkpatrick MacMillan, Scottish-born blacksmith, made the "engine" for the bike. Certainly not a machine like that of a motorcycle, but more like a driver that enabled crank, passing up and down movement of the foot pedals. MacMillan also had "dared" to connect the crank had to stick steering (simple handlebars).

While noting efforts to improve the encyclopedia Britannica.com French inventor, Ernest Michaux in 1855, by making ballast crank, until the bike is more stable rate. The more perfect after the Frenchman, Pierre Lallement (1865) reinforce the wheel by adding iron circle around it (now known as the rim or wheel). Lallement also introduce bike with front wheel is larger than the rear wheel.

But the most significant advances occur when perforated steel-making technology is found, following a good growing iron grafting techniques, as well as the discovery of tire rubber as raw material. However, the factor of safety and comfort remain unsolved. Due to suspension technology (per and so on) has not been found, wobble and shake frequently make a buck lumbago. Half joking, community bike dub Lallement as boneshaker (bone shaker).

So do not be surprised if in the era of the 1880s, three wheel bikes that are considered safer for women and men whose feet are too short for conventional pedaling become so popular. Trend bicycles back worldwide after founding the first bicycle factory in Coventry, England in 1885. The factory was established James Starley is increasingly finding momentum after 1888 John Dunlop find wind tire technology. The pace of the bike was no longer shaking.

Other findings, such as brakes, gear ratio can be changed, chain, handlebars that can be moved, and many more add to the appeal of the bike. Since then, millions of people began to make the bike as a means of transportation, with America and Europe as a pioneer. Although slowly, his role began to be removed Cars and Motorcycles, bicycles still have observer. Even the notoriously rabid fans.

Types

Now the bike has a variety of names and models. Grouping is usually based on the function and size.

-Used mountain bike for off-road with a strong frame, has a suspension, and a combination of speeds up to 27.

-Used road bike for road racing, the overall light weight, smooth tires to reduce friction with the road, the combination of speed up to 27

Mountain Bike History

Mountain bike is actually a modification of the bike is used on the highway. Road bike made only to be used as a means of transportation on the road. If used in a mountainous area (on a steep road) bike will easily damaged. This makes some people strive to create a strong bike for all types of terrain.

Mountain bike, or better known as MTB (Mountain Bike) or ATB (All Terrain Bike), is a bike designed specifically to be able to survive in the past the mountain areas have a bumpy road and a lot of rocks. This bike has a design that is wider than the tire road bike, which aims to get better traction.

There is much debate about the origin of the first mountain bike use. According to some accounts, the first mountain bike tested by the Buffalo Soldiers, one part of the US Army. This bike was prepared for through the streets of the mountains by the US military. This bike trials conducted by a soldier who carries an officer of Missoulla passing through Montana heading to Yellowstone on the way home and away. The trial was conducted in August 1896.

In the range of 1930 to 1950, Joe breeeze develop versatile bike concept. Joe Breeze, who lived in the area of Marin County, California, is developing a bar-tire bikes with high quality. This bike tires 'balloon' with a degree of speed. Joe artificial bike had become a trend in the future.

In the span of 1951 to 1956, a community in France named Velo Cross Club parison (VCCP), which consists of 20 young people who love cycling, holding a sporting event which became the basis of the sport mountain bike at the moment. In the sports activities, all members of VCCP using a specially modified bikes for the event, which was given the name of the French 650-B.

In 1953, John Finley Scott of the United States to develop a bike that is the forerunner of the modern mountain bike manufacture. The bikes were developed by John Finley Scott was named 'Woodsie Bike'. This bike uses a frame with diamond shape design developed by Schwin World. In addition, this bike tires using tire in the wind. To improve security, the bike is also equipped with flat handle bars which serves as a safety and bicycle amplifier while exploring the mountains.

To adjust the speed and acceleration of this bike, there derailleur gears that allows the rider to set it. This can reduce the burden on the driver so it is not too heavy to run. As for security and maximize results braking, then the bike is equipped with cantilever brakes.

Around the 1970s, there is a bicycle community in California, United States that participate in the development of mountain bikes. The community was named The Cupertino Riders aka the Morrow Dirt Club. This community developed a mountain bike equipped with thumbshift operation. In addition, a community located in Cupertino, California is applying the brakes are used on motorcycles. The disc-shaped brake is mounted on a mountain bike makes. This bike capable of winning the championship that was held at that time. But this only lasted until 1994.

In 1977 Joe Breeze back 'playing' with the concepts of a mountain bike. This time Joe developed a mountain bike that uses a lightweight metal material for artificial body parts bike. In addition to using the lightweight metal, artificial bike Joe is also equipped with a tire size is quite big. Ban the use of measuring 26 inches x 2â ...> inches. Type of tires used by Joe is kind Knobby tires Uniroyal.

While the rim used on this bike is Schwin S2 rim. It is also equipped with Phil Wood hubs. This bike is quite attractive. Joe Breeze eventually make 10 pieces of this type bike in June 1978.

In the span of the late 1970s until the early 1980s, many bicycle industry began to develop a production bike with the use of high-tech lightweight materials. If Joe Breeze did it in 1978, another case with Tom Ritchey. Together with Gary Fisher and Charlie Kelley, Tom Ritchey form a firm that mempruduksi bike with the latest technology. Company by the name of this mountainbikes took part in the trade industry exhibition in 1983. The design of the bike produced by this company taking on the basis of road bike. Only on this mountain bike used a wider frame and fork brace tire well adapted to withstand a wider tire.

To the handlebar is also different. On this mountain bike handlebar used straight, without any curved like the bike to the highway. In addition, there are some parts of this bike that takes the design of the existing BMX bike.

In 1983 for the first time mass produced mountain bikes. Mass production mountain bike was first carried out in the country of Japan by the company Specialized bicycle industry. The model used in this bike took the design of the bike the creation of Tom Ritchey. The difference in this bike has been used 15 pieces of gear. This further enhances the performance of the mountain bike, also make the rider more easily use it.

Batavus Bike History

Adapted and abbreviated from Book de oude fiets: Batavus Special Edition, written by Jos Rietveld et al, I translate the ability for what it is ... hopefully pleasing

Dedicated to brand Batavus bikes Belanda.Perusahaan based in Friesland Heerenveen, which in 2004 celebrated one hundred years old.

The reason for writing Batavus is, because none of which have never been written specifically about Batavus, whereas this brand still survives and has over a hundred years old.

Did not know it was love: Batavus

The explanation for this article covers from two circumstances, ie when the first World War in which production is relatively small and a little Batavus (at that time dominated by brands such as Germany and locomotive class).

More importantly, it marks this time there is no particular style or model that even develop your own design, unlike other brands. Only since the early fifties Batavus has a specific characteristic, namely issuing edition sports bike, which proved very successful.

Although for many years Batavus bikes good quality, but less preferred brand Batavus the eyes of many fans of the old Dutch bike with the reasons for lack of distinctive design lines and Batavus Old Dutch bikes are always in a state of dull. However, it should be for reviews because Developments Batavus has interesting aspects.

Company History

Batavus, the company was founded by Andries Gaastra, who started his business as a trader watches and sewing machines for war and also shoes, and continue trying to sell Batavus bikes.

1904 - Andries Gaastra (born 1880) started his business with his wife Dientje on 15 September 1904 a company watches and sewing machines. Gaastra trained as a clock repairman and previously worked for a company in the area.

Entrepreneurial spirit led him and his wife formed a private company, which is located in a new building in downtown Heerenveen. Initially they started with one store here, but this building will soon be home to a kind of trade in goods.

Import and resale (often for wholesale) evolved into a core business, combined with bicycle assembly. Shortly after the start of the company, Gaastra began importing bicycles from Germany. In the fast-growing market for bicycles (about a hundred years ago, which is full of competition) there is a big offer from Germany, France and the UK, which was then ignore the patriotic side of the Dutch.

Gaastra meet regularly at the Leipziger Messe bike and doing business with the German brand "Presto" from Chemnitz. Import is running well, and in 1913 he became an importer of this brand.

1909 - It is not clear where and in what year the first branded Batavus bikes and named Batafus first assembled. In 1909, the brand name Batafus legally registered.

1911 - The new brand name is familiar and known in 1911 but, under this trademark, Gaastra still selling sewing machine and bicycle parts (eg carbide lamps). In our study, all cases involving an article that comes from another place, name or Batafus Batavus has been widely applied.

It remains unclear reason the simultaneous use of the name Batavus and Batafus. Both names are used side by side since 1910. Platmerk or emblem familiar with Batafus name.

1916 - Enterprises in the field of trade and assembling the bike goes well in 1916, then the company raised Gaastra. It was decided to focus on the production of bicycles in 1917, and began to assemble and buy a bike from nickel from Phoenix in Heerenveen, which has existed since 1895. The facility nickel sold as brand name Phoenix. which then Mr. Strasberg of Leeuwarden buy this name and began the same year the Phoenix factory established in Leeuwarden.

1921 - In 1921 Gaastra has about 20 staff are employed, including some representatives who traveled around the country. In comparison, when it Fongers and Simplex has more than three hundred employees. Although domestic production increased significantly, it is estimated at no more than a few thousand bikes per year.

1924 - Since 1924, the then brand Batavus bikes are used, although the rights to the brand in 1929 Batafus extended. It is remarkable that we find on old bikes belong gorredijk, in the front hub, Batafus brands listed, but the emblem / her merkplat named Batavus. Gaastra may deliberately seek memversifikasi and second adjacent names.

1928 - In 1928, Gerrit Gaastra lead production department directly. This period is a further development of the bike Phoenix, and then produce their own all devices with the name Batavus. there are also sub-brand Batavus when the twenties and thirties, namely: Galvano, Arie Scheffer and Fleet.

1930 - Around 1930 started production of machine bicycles (mopeds) first stage (125 cc). Machine is small-scale production and will continue until about the year 1950. And the future (very difficult) Batavus even try to produce ice skating equipment. These products achieve sales of 50,000 units per year. In 1954 however, do not produce anymore.

Also thanks to product differentiation, Batavus in the thirties continue to grow and develop, so the company in 1940 has 120 number of staff. During the war years, many employees were transferred to Germany. Production in Heerenveen slowly stopped.

1945 - In 1945 there were only 30 employees in the factory. Then the founder of the company, Gaastra died in the same year and leadership turning to his son Hans. In the years after the war, production gradually resumed, with the scarcity of materials is a serious limiting factor.

This brand also maintains and sportfietsen models which makes it very popular. Batavus is one of the first brands that focus on the sports segment. While riding with a smaller wheel size and kinetic systems Period late fifties start with Batavus bicycle exports to the United States and Indonesia.

Production continues to grow, but in the early sixties many manufacturers umengalami masalh about salary. in 1963 Gazelle and Batavus decided to join the grounds of efficiency. However, disagreements between the executive between them make this merger was dissolved again in July 1965, the expansion era finally arrived and in the sixties map changes Dutch bicycle industry changed dramatically.

Batavus favoriet Classic - The 2009 favoriet is Essentially the 2008 Old Dutch 3speed in a classed-up livery. Like the 2009 Old Dutch, the favoriet is a classic Dutch bike with coaster brakes, only the favoriet features the 3speed internal gear hub. A best seller!

History Onthel

Old bicycle history began in Europe. Around 1790, a first bikes were built in the UK. Embryo of this bike is named Hobby Horses and Celeriferes.
Both mechanisms have not got the bike today, the steering shaft and pedal system. That there are only two wheels on a wooden frame. We can imagine how awkward and both bikes had a great view.
Hobby Horses and also Celeriferes, have not got a bike mechanism today, the steering shaft and pedal system. That there are only two wheels on a wooden frame.
Even so, they help enough people - at that time - to walk. Phenomenal discovery in the past story of a bike created thanks to Baron Karl von Drais.
Von Drais listed as a student of mathematics and mechanics in Heidelberg, Germany managed to make important breakthroughs, which turned out to be the foundation stone of the development of the next cycle.
By Von Drais, Hobby Horse modified to have a steering mechanism on the front wheels.
By taking the kinetic energy of the legs, Von Drais able to glide faster time around the garden. He himself calls this vehicle with the name, Draisienne. The story itself was published in local newspapers Germany in 1817.

The creation process is then performed Kirkpatrick Macmillan. In 1839, he added a drive shaft which connects the rear wheel with the front tire Draisienne.
To run it, just pedal there. Hobby Horses and also Celeriferes, have not got a bike mechanism today, the steering shaft and pedal system. That there are only two wheels on a wooden frame.
James Starley made the bike a very large front wheel (high wheel bicycle) are very small rear wheel and managed to make a breakthrough by creating the wheel radius and cross-tangent method.
James Starley began building bicycles in the UK in 1870. He produced a bike with a very large front wheel (high wheel bicycle) are very small rear wheel.
This type of bike is very popular throughout Europe. For Starley managed to make a breakthrough by creating the wheel radius and cross-tangent method.
Until now, the technology was still being used. Tail, the bike becomes lighter for paddled.
Unfortunately, the bike with large wheels it has many shortcomings. This is a dilemma for those who boned and petite women. Because of the position of the pedals and the seat is high enough, they complained about the difficulty to drive it.
John Kemp Starley make the bike safer to drive, it has a chain to drive the rear wheels and two wheels the same size.
Until finally, nephew James Starley, John Kemp Starley find a solution. It creates a safer bike to be ridden by anyone in 1886.
This bike has had a chain to drive the rear wheels and two wheels the same size.
But no less important discovery made in 1888 John Boyd Dunlop.
Dunlop managed to find a bicycle tire technology that can be filled with air (pneumatic tire).
From here, the initial rapid progress bike. Various forms of bicycles successfully created. As is known then, bicycle into a vehicle that's fun.
John Boyd Dunlop, managed to find a bicycle tire technology that can be filled with air (pneumatic tire).
In Indonesia, the development of the bike is heavily influenced by the colonizers, especially the Netherlands.
They bring the production bike to be used around the country to enjoy the fresh nature of Indonesia.
The habit is transmitted to the blue-blooded aborigines. Finally, the bike so prestigious transport tool.
In the next period, while the role of bicycles increasingly pressured by a variety of technologies that carried engined vehicles (cars and motorcycles), some people began wanting to preserve history through a collection of antique bicycles.
On average, their old bicycle manufacturing output Europe. Figures year between 1940 to 1950. And they are very careful in care.
Pasa present, aka old fashioned bike more and more in demand. Aside from being a hobby, sometimes also as an asset because of the more old-fashioned will be more scarce and expensive.
Now also many clubs and community ancient bicycle from various regions in Indonesia, from Sabang to Merauke, numbering hundreds of communities, even that which was observed and registered, not to mention there are still many who are not registered or participating organization under the auspices of Kosti or stands Indonesian Old Bicycle Community.
However, usually owned by the club's bike is very different from the old bike much used motorcycles. If the motorcycle-motorcycle that most bike model year output 80-90s Chinese or Japanese.
While the owner of the bicycle club members mostly have a bike that is much more ancient and artificial dominated by Europe, particularly the Netherlands and the UK.
In our society, old bicycle was known by several names, such as ontel, jeans, beetles, sundung, sapeda-fashioned and many other nicknames words throughout Indonesia.

HISTORY of bicycle and STORIES IN MODERN TIMES

Onterl been abandoned ever heckled also ostracized by society in development especially in the 19-20 backward. The existence of a motorcycle makes ontel be wacan retarded. Whereas before there is early onset of motor Pit.

Now bicycle comes back to save the global warming conditions. Quiet socialization because human form ogo is also a strong reason ngontel loss of civilization. Sekrang comes back with the same style but flaming charisma.

Bengini history

Bicycles were first made in the country of France in 1791. In 1817 Baron von Drais de Sauerbrun make wooden bike without pedals first. This bike is called Hobby Horse (bike piggyback). And in 1839 wearing a pedal bike was first used, but the shape is also very funny, because a large front wheel while the rear wheel is small. So how to use it even necessary acrobatic skills.

Indonesia entered a new bike at the beginning of the 20th century or around 1910. At that time used by the colonial bike was taken from his home country. Only after the bike started to use the nobles, the missionaries and wealthy merchant. Fiets, so the colonial call (call) bike. However, because Java is not fluent tongue, people then called the "pit". While onthel intended pedaling, so this means bicycle bike in pedal.
Bicycle or also known as the designation of a camel bicycle, bike kebo, or pit bike pancal is standard with 28-inch tire size used by the urban society until the 1970s. Various kinds of brand bicycle from various countries circulated in the Indonesian market. In the premium segment are brand Fongers example, Gazelle and Sunbeam. Later in the segment below it filled by some well-known brands, among others, such as Simplex, Burgers, Raleigh, Humber, Rudge, Batavus, Phillips and NSU.

Then in 1970 the existence of the bicycle began to be shifted by bike more compact sized jeans better than high size and length and not differentiated design for male or female rider. At that time the bike jeans are also popular brand of Chinese Phoenix. Furthermore, Bicycle jeans in the 1980s also began shifting by MTB until now.
Bicycle later in the 1970s gradually more widely used by rural communities than in urban. But in the end because of the age and scarcity, the bicycle has been turned into antiques and unique. Begin the situation reverses, the bicycle that was once wasted, now in the 2000s is now hunted by all circles back from the students, the students until officials. Javanese people say this is "Wolak-waliking era".

Avid community towards the bicycle is right along with the growing threat of global warming. It could be when, more expensive fuel and air pollution is not controlled, the bicycle community will be one of the front line to promote the importance of riding a bike. Enjoy.
