Bog beskrivelse

Few inventions rival the bicycle''s global reach. Even fewer have maintained their fundamental design for more than 130 years, a feat achieved by the true safety bicycle after 1890. With two equal-sized wheels, a diamond frame, rear-wheel chain drive, and pneumatic tires, its design is globally recognizable. Despite its cultural significance, the bicycle remains inadequately represented in our built and cultural environments.

This book explores the history of the early American bicycle industry. It examines factory complexes, worker housing, and urban plans that go back to America''s seminal period of bicycle manufacturing, which began in 1878 with the production of elegant high-wheel models. By studying the architecture, engineering, and inventions of bicycle design and manufacture, this research sheds light on various aspects of the industry during its early years and contributes to the preservation of cycling''s nineteenth century heritage within our built environment.
