Scope and content
The "pedajet" that is fixed to the back of this bicycle is powered by battery and creates a pressure enough to ride this bicycle for 19 kph. This formula has been used as a foundation for the development of more advanced units that use fuel for operation. The battery is encased in a plastic cover and is durable, and it is fixed at a low gravitational point by the wheel for ease of maneuvering. This does not use gears or transmission but is still capable of travelling on steep or flat lands with a constant pressure of 7 pounds. After hitting the break after operating this unit, the pressure that is created through the resistance makes the bicycle move forward in an even speed. This method is more efficient than the traditional motor operated bicycles as the battery is not severely affected by the heavy weight, increased speed or traveling a mountain road.
