References: pedal-power & kickstarter
Cycling has always been a mode of transportation for fun or for fitness, and now New York based entrepreneurs Andy and Steve have combined cycling with function with the new pedal-powered machine called Pedal Power.
Pedal Power aims to combine bicycles and function through building pedal-powered machines that allow you to charge your gadgets while you work. The ‘dynapods’ (stationary pedal-powered machines) have two core products currently in production. The Big Rig, a machine with a built-in seat with a work desk and the ‘Pedal Genny,’ the portable, single function counterpart.
The dynapods are fully-functioning human powered platforms that leave your hands free for any task and are extremely ergonomic; providing the maximum level of comfort for its users.
