Brooks Islington Rucksack

Clay — Mon, 30 May 2011 15:25:52 +0000

There are a few companies out there that in my opinion can pretty much do no wrong. Brooks England is one of those companies for me. Just this morning I was taking a look at the Cool Hunting blog and stumbled on the Islington Rucksack. For me this is something that fits so many areas for me. It just looks sexy, and it is fairly large at 33l. Past that just the fact that it is a backpack really excites me. On top of that they add a system were you can cross the shoulder straps across your chest for even better stability. At around $260 I will agree it is very pricey, but as a Brooks product you know it will last a whole lot longer than you will.

Gyro Bike

So a friend of mine just sent me this video. The Gyro Bike is a cool idea. Instead of using training wheels, they place a gyro in the front wheel to provide balance. Having two little girls that both started riding at the age of 2 I can really see how this would be nice, and the fact that it is going to sell for around $100 makes it pretty reasonable. If it can lasts long enough to get passed from one kid to the next.

My only real concern is how it effects the bike. GryoBike is saying that it doesn't effect the handling and they have a good group of testers that are agreeing. Now this might not be a concern for most people, but helping my 3 year old roll around the skate park, and the local pump track, it is hard for me to think that it wouldn't change the handling in some way. Still I have to give them credit for thinking up a pretty useful idea.

Here is a video on basics of how it works.
