It would be interesting to show how many estimated bicycles there are in comparison to the population. I'm thinking of a "The lighter the shade of blue, the lower the percentage in the bike owner/population ratio".

"Since a moving bicycle makes little noise, some countries insist that bicycles have a warning bell for use when approaching pedestrians, equestrians, and other cyclists, though sometimes a car horn can be used when a 12 volt battery is available.[citation needed]"

mc2 bike

I was thinking of putting it in penny farthing article, as a new approach to that type and essentially a foldable penny farthing but then I saw it has 8 modes and one is recumbent mode. It's World's first "Multi-Configuration Cycle" or Transforming bike. It seems that it can be bought, not a prototype. So what to do with that. It seems that it's too little content for it's own article. 95.178.222.9 (talk) 01:06, 23 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Can I have more information on this please? I think that from this information, it should be conjoined with the Types of bikes. Sportsfangnome (talk) 14:56, 6 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hydrofoil bikes

like Manta5. Maybe an introductory segment could be put in this article ? It's just a question of whether or not similarities outweight differences. 95.178.143.119 (talk) 09:18, 6 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

your definition of bicycle is incorrect. every definition thet i found on a reputable dictionary says a bicycle is propelled by using pedals. if it has a motor, then it is a motorcycle, not a bicycle Scottossington (talk) 19:36, 9 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Injuries on Bike

I think that there should be a new heading on injuries of a bicycle, for example, it can have a picture, a subheading of minor and major injuries, minor being cuts while major being accidents with a car, if someone agrees or disagrees with me, let me know!

Bicycle ownership per country

I'm surprised I can't find either a table, or a map anywhere on Wikipedia about this.

It would be interesting to show how many estimated bicycles there are in comparison to the population. I'm thinking of a "The lighter the shade of blue, the lower the percentage in the bike owner/population ratio". 31.3.11.254 (talk) 06:30, 23 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
