The bike is an integral part of the life of many people - both adults and children. For someone, this transport is just entertainment and the opportunity to keep yourself in good physical form, and for others it is a sport and meaning of life. To date, there are many models from various manufacturers. There are bicycles specially made for walking, and there are those that are intended for professional driving.
But few people know that There are also such bikes that can easily compete in high-speed capabilities with modern racing cars. It is about such bicycles that will be discussed in this article.
Bicycle recordsman
In the entire history of the existence and manufacture of two-wheeled transport, many different copies were created, each of which at one time surprised the capabilities and design. But today none of the previously developed and created models compares with the current record holder - Exotic Thermo Engineering. It is this bike today is considered the fastest among "fellow" in the world. Before discussing its features, let's talk a little about the history of creation.
Who invented?
The idea of creating the fastest bike in the world that works without a motor belongs French biker-extremal Francois Zhisxi. It was this man who broke the most crazy and incredible records on the planet, which are connected with this vehicle. He independently engaged in the development and design of the super bike and its components.
It is also worth noting that Francois itself performed an assembly of a framework frame, but with the manufacture of a "highlight" bike, thanks to which he became the fastest on the planet, a special company was engaged in. The bicycle rocket plant has developed and designed the Swiss company Exotic Thermo Engineering, of course, on the idea of Zhissi. So, in 2002 a new record holder appeared on the light thanks to the fruitful work of Swiss engineers and a crazy rider.
Record
In the year of birth of a high-speed bike, his "Father" is decided to take a risk that, ultimately, turned out to be very justified. In France, on the car named after Poly Ricar, it would seem in an unequal battle, two "iron horse" came together: one of them bike Exotic Thermo Engineering, the other - a racing car, which is considered one of the fastest - Ferrari F430 Scuderia. Whatever it sounded amazing, but just A two-wheeled miracle for some 4.8 seconds Francois Zhisxi dispersed to 242.6 km / h and left far behind the racing car.
Then the record was recorded, and the bike was recognized as the fastest in the world. But his creator does not seek to get into the Guinness Book of Records, so officially recorded is not fixed. Despite this, to this day there is no bike faster than Exotic Thermo Engineering. After that, Zhisxi, on his "iron horse", participated in the arrival, competing with a no less high-speed TESLA car. During the race, it was recorded that the bike accelerates faster than the car.
Features Exotic Thermo Engineering
Of course, this is not a completely ordinary bike, he has its own distinctive qualities, thanks to which he is unique. It is characterized by the presence:
- elongated frame;
- gender corner of the steering axis;
- jet engine, which is welded to frame frame.
An extended design and a gentle corner are responsible for the safety of the rider.
Features of these structural elements prevent the possibility that the cyclist when braking at high speed can be removed through the steering wheel. But the presence of a reactive engine provides the maximum speed.
Principle of operation
The bike is equipped with the same pedals as the usual bike, but turn them optionally. Of course, if driving on such transport implies just a walk, then the pedals will be by the way, but they are not needed for quick ride. Even the creator of the record holder sometimes resorts to the rotation of the pedals. Most likely, the pedals would be set so that this "rocket" could be attributed to the class of transport "Bike".
So, the principle of operation of a supreme bicycle is as follows:
- Rocket installation "refills" 90% hydrogen peroxide (this substance is fuel for the bike);
- Next, a silver catalyst begins to the peroxide;
- after the decay of hydrogen peroxide on 2 components - water and oxygen;
- The decay process is accompanied by the appearance of high pressure inside the rocket installation;
- At the last stage, high pressure pushes outwards to break the decay of hydrogen peroxide, thanks to which the bike comes into operation and goes very quickly, with each second gaining speed.
From this we can conclude that Francois Zhissi is not only an incredible inventor and cyclist, but also an excellent physicist and chemist if he could think before creating such a design. I also want to say that the inventor does not strive to earn money on his brainchild. Buy or order this type of vehicle is not possible.
Exotic Thermo Engineering is the only one in its copy. As you may need to know, we will soon hear that it was still fixed and entered into the Guinness Book of Records a new magnificent achievement, which belongs to Francois Zhisxi and his "Iron Kony".
Other high-speed bikes
In addition to the bike Exotic Thermo Engineering, there are other bikes, which also became famous for the whole world due to the fact that they can develop a rather significant speed.
Among such bikes:
- FFR Trikes 422 Alpha - Bike develops speed 50 km / h;
- Optibike 1100r. - the maximum possible speed of 65 km / h;
- Trefecta DRT. - 75 km / h;
- Audi Ebike. - 80 km / h;
- Black Trail from PG - 100 km / h;
- Eta Bike. - 140 km / h.
Each of the above models is original in its design, technical parameters and capabilities. Some of them can even be purchased, of course, exclusively at the manufacturer and at a very high price. In the store none of the listed bikes is impossible. The most original and unique has long been the property of private collections.
