Interfaces on bicycles
Posted by Dr. Yan Lyansky on Sep 11th 2021
Bicycles are used for transportation. Adding interfaces adds functionality so the bicycle can do more for the user. Let's examine some of these:
1. kickstand interface- allowing a kickstand for commuting
2. water bottle interfaces - allows for water bottles so you can go on longer rides ( and possibly tour )
3. fender interfaces - allows protection from the elements
4. rack interface - allows users to carry stuff on the back of the bike ( and possibly tour )
5. head tube interface - allows you to carry stuff on the front of the bike
6. Front derailleur interface- allows one to add many more gears
Overall, these simple interfaces add to the functionality of a bicycle. We try to add as much as possible to our bikes.
