A bike wheel that could save your commute (and the planet).
Instead of arriving to work breathless and drenched in sweat, what if you could glide up to the bike rack with ease, knowing you've just saved time by not walking, as well as dollars and pollution by not driving? The FlyKly Smart Wheel aims to help promote biking as a transportation alternative by making the whole ordeal easier. Simply switch out your rear bike wheel with a new, minimalist electric one, and download the app for your smartphone. The wheel communicates with your phone via bluetooth, tracking distance, time and speed -- the wheel can go up to 25MPH for about 50 miles without needing a charge.
Smart Wheel's Kickstarter campaign was funded above and beyond its goal back in November, and pre-orders are starting now.
