They would allow a lot more people to discover the enjoyment of cycling off-road; I would no longer be nearly always riding on my own. I imagined that a significant number of these people would find my design more appropriate for typical UK conditions. As is often human nature, people who are clearly a bit screwy, the.

Cleland L A N D S E E R. The TRUE cross-country bicycle. Tiller effect… →. December 20, 2014. Over the years I would think about the benefits of a longer crank during the power phase, with a shorter crank during the rest of the pedal’s rotation. I’d have wild fantasies about cranks that could somehow change length; longer on the down-stroke, shorter on the up-stroke. I wondered what may happen if I positioned the platform forward of the axis, and came up with this:. On the Landseer I have combined offset...
