concept explanations
operation, power supply, transformation

this urban transportation device can be used without learning. Just stand on it, increase speed by kicking and lower speed by using the hand brakes. if there is no acceleration, speed is held constant by the engine in the back wheel.

the engine of the "stadtpferd" is integrated in the back wheel. power cells are placed right between the wheel in the back and the storage area in the front. they are easily accessible and can be replaced and reloaded.
energy which can be produced while slowing down is stored in capacitors close to the engine.
the "stadtpferd" can be transformed with minimal effort.

first the front wheels are turned into the back position to ensure stability.

then the standing platforms are flipped up and the back wheel is brought close to the shafts in a spiral movement.
