This model is dubbed the 'Chivicker' and is primarily designed for kids to have fun on.

 

Powered by a 49cc four-stroke single and only 105cm high overall this little machine would definitely be welcome under any Christmas Tree.

 

Understand bike less than 65cc need / cannot be registered as motorcycle, hehehe, meaning that no inspection, insurance and road tax requires. hehehe.

Bring back any memory?

 

"Kuwahara BMX!" It was kids' answer to the question from the director Spielberg "Which bicycle do you want to ride?" Then, Mr Kuwahara got a ring from Universal Studio to send 40 BMXs even though he did not know which film his bikes would appear in. The director Spielberg requested to use a white gradation in red and it was a unique design at that time. This is how the bicycle, which was an essential item in the film, was born. Twenty years has passed and now, 300 of the limited bicycle will be produced. Of course, BMX pro-riders' favourite steel, Clomoribden, is used as the original model was also made with it. Moreover, head part, fork end and bridge are all dead stock now. ET's basket is available as an option.

 

A strong policy of creators did not allow producing the past work again because those creators are seeking the new bicycle at all times. In other words, it can be said that each bicycle is special one. "I just want to continue to create bicycles that remain in people's hearts", said Mr Kuwahara. Making carefully a bicycle in order to suite each rider's character and all of them would understand how fun to ride a real bicycle if they rode ones from Kuwahara. That is an attractive point of bicycles from "Kuwahara."

 

Only 300 bicycles will be on sale from the middle of September in 49,800 yen. The optional basket is 4,500 yen.

power~~

Was abit curious if this bike still around, did a check on the net to discover 1, the owner may hv modified a bit, colour should be light metalic blue (matching with the silver water bottle), seat is sky blue, the seat pole is also oval (aero) in shape, don't understand why it is LOTUS, mine was AERO ARAYA, think only 1 in Spore, sadly it was stolen within a year of ownership.

 

The speciality of the bike was oval shape frame, brakes calipers, rims, spokes, forks, handlebar and almost anything you can find on the bike. a collector's item especially such innovation design/idea was from Japanese.

 

http://www.bicycletrader.com/collection/images/102102_22.JPG

 

Japanese built Lotus Aero bike. Built in 1983 using the rare Shimano Dura Ace AX aero groupo, Araya Aero rims, Tear drop Aero tubing, Aero Water bottle, Kashimax saddle, Toshi toe straps, Soyo tubular tires, all Japanese parts. Bike is in beautiful rideable condition. Although the Shimano AX parts were not a big hit, this bike represented a significant change in road bicycle design. This was Shimano's first attempt at Aero Levers, cassette hubs and index shifting--all standards today.

 

$2,450

The last Raleigh bike rolls off the Nottingham production line on Thursday ending a 100-year bike-making tradition in the city.

 

Raleigh, renowned for the cult classic Chopper with its Harley Davison style handlebars and high-back seat, was a stalwart in the city for decades.

 

But competition from the Far East has forced the company to move most of its production out of the country.

 

Most of its bikes will be made in Vietnam, Thailand and Sri Lanka, but it will still distribute bicycles from a large warehouse in Eastwood, just outside Nottingham.

 

Family tradition

 

"The decision to close the factory doesn't reflect on the workers - it is a question of global economics and economy of scale and other factors," said Allan Spencer, operations director for Raleigh.

 

For years, the bikes have been assembled at the plant in Nottingham using parts sent from overseas.

 

Raleigh chopper

The chopper was a cult hit for Raleigh

About 400 people work at the Nottingham factory, but only 120 will have jobs after it closes.

 

In 1952, thousands of people were employed on the Triumph Road site that stretched for acres.

 

One Raleigh worker said: "Over the years at Raleigh I don't think there has been a family in Nottingham that hasn't had someone connected to the company - at one time or another."

 

Redundant workers, who have known about the closure for months, remained proud of their product: "We built everything from frames for the Tour de France to mountain bikes for British teams."

 

'Badge of pride'

 

Nottingham-born novelist Alan Sillitoe based his story of working class life, Saturday Night and Sunday Morning, on his experiences in the factory.

 

Frank Bowden started the Raleigh Cycle Company in 1888 on Raleigh Street, and it grew dramatically, making bicycles, tricycles and even toys.

 

Worker at the Raleigh factory in Nottingham

The current Nottingham factory opened 50 years ago

 

During the two world wars, the firm turned its hand to munitions.

 

Philip Darnton, chairman of Raleigh UK, said until recently a new factory in the Bulwell area of Nottingham was a serious option.

 

"We thought we would be able to justify the initial investment of £11m and continue making bikes here.

 

"But in the past few years the quality of bikes made in the Far East has improved significantly, until then we had not been convinced the quality was there."

 

In 1999, financial pressures forced the company's previous owners to sell the Triumph Road site to the University of Nottingham.

 

At that point the firm was selling 500,000 bikes a year - a far cry from the apex of the company's success when it employed 8,000 people making 2 million bikes a year.

 

MP Graham Allen said: "I go all around the world, I talk to people and once you've got over Robin Hood, the thing they know about Nottingham is the Raleigh cycle.

 

"It's the thing that every kid wanted for Christmas. It was the thing that was really a badge of pride for the whole of Nottingham."

this is Harley, hahaha
