Presenting one-of-a-kind road bike concept designed for one of my favorite bicycle company, Kona.
Founded in 1988, Kona Bicycle Company design and manufacture complete range of road, commuter, cyclo-cross in addition to a complete range of mountain bikes. Using a range of materials including carbon fiber, titanium, aluminum and steel, Kona's bikes are sold in over 60 countries worldwide.
This radical concept is meant for one purpose only - Ride Faster. The design is also inspired by MotoGP motorcycle and it features Clip-on style handlebars in wider format instead of traditional road bike handlebars. This will be a new riding position, but is aimed for riding style change + better riding dynamics.
The tail section also supports the aerodynamics and make the rider glide faster on time-trail sections or bomb any road race.
The B-52 is a full carbon-fiber frame that should be possible to manufacture with the assistance of R-n-D team with their technical expertise.
Critiques are welcome too!
