When Cyclists Are Forced to Fly, There's This Bicycle Luggage
I'm the caliber of cyclist who's able to ride to wherever, whenever, including on water to Europe, but for those of you cut from lesser cloth (i.e. not miraculous cyclists) there's this bit of cleverly shaped luggage called AeroTech Evolution. More » -

Wii Exercise Bike Would Be Perfect For Paperboy
As one Kotaku commenter correctly pointed out, an exercise bike peripheral for the Wii is nothing without a remake of Paperboy. More » -

Cycling PSA Gets the Point Across With a Little Lego Ultraviolence
As a cyclist, I can appreciate the message being put forth in this Biking Rules PSA. As a Lego lover, I can't help but smile at the cuteness inherent in the violent auto accident portrayed at the end. More » -

ARider Turns The iPhone Into a Heads-Up GPS Display For Cyclists
Japan's Ubiquitous Entertainment have developed a prototype device called ARider that allows cyclists to navigate via their iPhone 3GS using a heads up display. Of course, the whole setup seems a bit precarious for you and your precious phone. More » -

Taga Stroller/Bike Combo Might Launch Your Tots Into the Stratosphere
Bike, stroller or wheeled trebuchet? Whatever it is, the Taga takes kid-carrying in a new direction. I just can't help thinking those two smiling kids are one wheelie away from joining the ISS. More » -

Bike Handlebars WIth Built-In Basket
It's no plastic wicker with a plastic daisy on the front, but it's a great idea: structurally combine handlebars and a basket into one piece. Sadly, I think it's a design concept, not a product. More » -

Retroreflective Bright Bike Looks Black, Glows White in Headlights
Want to not get run over by motorized carriages while cycling, but afraid to look like a nerd with all the reflectors? Enter Scotchlite 680, a vinyl that reflects white only in the light. -

The Down Low Glow is Not What You Think
These Down Low Glow light bars for your bike are one wheel hydraulics system away from true low rider status, but that's not actually their true purpose. While at first glance they may appear to be the epitome of bicycle tchotchke, the manufacturer lays out a somewhat convincing case as to why riders should invest $110 to trick out their Trek.

Nulla Minimalist Bike Concept Dispenses With Spokes, Most of Frame
Designer Bradford Waugh came up with Nulla (meaning "nothing") as a way of making bikes more stylish and lightweight. And visually stunning of course. Lacking spokes, it uses a direct-gear-chain drive system, which leaves the bike looking like a simple set of open curves. Whether or not it would ride well would be immaterial, methinks: rock up to a cycling meet on this thing and you'd have an instant bunch of admirers. Just a concept... but who knows, it looks exactly sort of thing we're riding in twenty years time. [Tuvie] -

Signal Jacket for Cyclists
Ph.D student Leah Buechley has designed several items of electronic clothing, but her signal jacket for cyclists is, I reckon, something that should be picked up by clothing manufacturers at soon as possible. LEDs embedded in an arrow formation flash to indicate the cyclist is about to turn left or right, warning motorists, and so, hopefully, preventing any unnecessary squishing. The LEDs are powered by that cute flower-like thing in the center of the jacket. It's the LilyPad Arduino, a small, sewable computer chip that was designed by Leah herself.
