Bike That Grows (Jun, 1946)
Bike That Grows up with the child is this new model, recently exhibited in New York City. By a few seconds adjustment of the horizontal seat post of the bicycle, it can be adapted to the requirements of either child or adult rider.
Do you think that when she rings the bell, she says “one ringy-dingy…”
Looks to me like an excuse to “accidentally” look up a lady’s skirt. Seriously…extending the pedal above the seat instead of…I don’t know…placing lifters on the seat and handle-bars. And that much exposed chain…I guess that’s to make sure she wears those short skirts…
I wonder why they don’t make these anymore…
They do. That bike would be classified as an OSS-SWB Recumbent (Over Seat Steering, Short Wheel Base). You can put a Teflon plastic tube over the chain (actually feed the chain through it.)
