Dreamfit for Bikers

Dreamfit for Bikers

Bikers will tell you that news of them never being able to ride again, feeling the thrill of being on your own bike with wind blowing against your face is definitely heartbreaking. Thankfully, the Dreamfit bike (a highly modified Honda CBR250RR) was created by Darren Lomman (necessity is the mother of all invention, after all), allowing bikers who are paralyzed from chest down to continue riding without a problem. The gears are shifted via thumb-operated rams, while custom-moulded ergonomic cups enable the rider to stay in place without allowing any pressure on the lower body. Best of all is the landing gear that adds a whole lot of stability to the rider. I wonder whether Darren will commercialize his idea or not.
