Evolution Bike

To the source of a bicycle can, apparently, include permutation wheel carts with two-track position in the single track. At the end of XVII century in many countries, there were wooden single-track two-wheeled carriages, which were set in motion by the rider - he took it down the ground, and thus moved to the top of the carriage. These were the first prototypes of the modern bicycle. A typical example of such crews can serve as a "toy horse" Charles Dries, based on single-beam scheme. The self-name of the crew talks about entertainment vehicles, do not pretend to convenient means of transportation, the steering wheel is not yet available.
