In 2014, the police in Slovenia recorded as many as 2,682 missing bicycles, and the actual number of stolen bicycles is much higher, as not everyone reports the theft. The possibility of a thief working and a bad and cheap lock (for example, a thin knitting needle) is almost the same for a thief today as leaving a bicycle unlocked. Thus, you have a high probability of becoming part of the black statistics. But not with the fixed Linka smart lock, which "recruits" money on Kickstarter. Also equipped with a siren, it attaches to the bicycle frame and is connected to your smartphone via Bluetooth technology.

Many cities around the world are becoming more and more bike-friendly, and a clear increase in cyclists is a reflection of this. This phenomenon has also been recorded in our country for the last decade. But despite the fact that cyclists are well taken care of in many places, we still find ourselves in situations where we are an extremely weak link in traffic. This is especially evident at night. But with the Brakepack Bluetooth backpack, you will no longer have to fear driving at night or driving in poor visibility, as it has built-in turn signals and brake lights.

Bicycles as such are not the most beautiful thing in this world. You can only do so much with a frame and two wheels.

All their bikes are handmade from wood and carbon fiber and are a fine example of applied art.

After a good year, we got the second half of the Halfbike, Halfbike II. Well, it's not really about missing parts, it's about a completely new and improved version of Kolelinio's predecessor from 2014, an extremely innovative bike that is ridden with the whole body, since it is ridden in a standing position. There is no ghost or hearing about the headquarters. So it recreates the feeling of riding while standing, but it is much more than a classic bike. No wonder it's burning up on Kickstarter.
