Any engineers interested in working on a non-profit idea in developing a new type of bicycle for 3rd world countries? While working on a bike sharing program for my campus this past year I had a few ideas and created contacts who are willing to put money into green transportation - it could be interesting to see where it leads.

- mdolon 17y agoYour bikes are very cool but they're very expensive! This kind of defies the logic of providing transportation to 3rd world countries - they need a cheap and easy solution. You do seem to know your way around bikes though, if you're interested in the project drop me a line at mdolon[at]gmail.
- dan_the_welder 17y agoYes, they are expensive because I have to make them and a living in the First world. If you really want to help the third world, they need tools. Get them old machine tools and welding equipment and they can make what they need. Also, my bikes are expensive but take a look at some of the other players in this market, some are twice as much!
