Etta urban commuter bike allows car-like riding position

By Naresh KumarChauhan /Jul 15 2010

Developed by Brooklyn designer Nicholas Heinrich Foley, the “etta” is an urban commuter bike that allows car-like riding position, making it more safe and convenient. Featuring a semi-recumbent design, the bicycle also integrates front and back lighting that generates power by pedaling, while a cargo compartment underneath the seat provides adequate space for baggage or groceries. The adjustable seat is ideal for riders with different height that presents an upright and more relaxed riding posture. Finished in aluminum, the bicycle weighing around 20-25 pounds is easy to control or ride.
