Hopefully the Denny and Yerka projects would find success easier to come by. We have no idea why, sounds like a pretty cool idea, if you asked us. However for some reason, that project didn’t resonate with the masses and it didn’t take off. As another post mentions, Ritte is plain expensive for a Russ Denny. The Yerka’s seat can be removed to fit into the bike’s down tube, creating its own locking mechanism.īack in 2010, a guy named Kevin Scott designed the Collapsible Bike, a bendable bicycle that can literally wrap around a pole. This isnt the first time Russ has built bikes for a business whose sole purpose is marketing expensive bicycles. The result? A bike that looks as if it was built around the railing/tree/pole (insert whatever object you lock your bike round). Other than the focus on safety, design and comfort, the idea behind the Yerka’s security is its removable seat, which is able to fit into the down tube of the bike frame, hence acting as its own locking mechanism. That’s a pretty big statement to make, but it’s pretty easy to see why they think that way after seeing the bike in action. The guys from the Yerka Project claim their bike design renders it “unstealable”.

The Denny features a removable handlebar lock system. The Denny recently beat out four other designs to win The Bike Design Project competition held by Oregon Manifest, so expect the offering to be made available to the mainstream market next year after b ike manufacturer Fuji Bikes committed to producing the bikes. After winning the Oregon Manifest Bike Design competition, the battery-assisted bicycle was due to be built in small numbers by Fuji. The team behind the Denny a radical new interpretation of the urban bicycle are appealing for a new manufacturer to resurrect the project. The Denny bike looks stylish and chic, with some fancy high tech features complementing a great practical overall design.Īmong its swanky features are electric power assist, turn signals, automatic headlights, automatic gear shifting and a rectangular handlebar that can open up to act as its own bike lock. End of the road for bicycle that was too advanced for production. With all of its attributes, its no wonder the Denny won The Bike Design Project, a contest by Levis Commuter that had five teams from five cities compete to design the ultimate urban utility bike.

Check out the video below for a look at all of these awesomely convenient features. Bike security is something that every cyclist out there values highly, and why not? So in the latest tech advancement to help fend off bike thieves, come two separate projects – Denny and Yerka – from Seattle and Chile respectively. The Denny also has safety lights that flood light onto the road around the bike.
