Pedersen bicycle
The Pedersen bicycle, also called the Dursley Pedersen bicycle is a bicycle that was developed by Danish inventor Mikael Pedersen and produced in the English town of Dursley.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 author = Mads Rasmussen )〕 Though never hugely popular, they enjoy a devoted following and are still produced today.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://www.dursleyglos.org.uk/html/dursley/industry/pedersen/pedersen.htm )〕 Their unusual frame is described as ''pure cross'',〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://www.rijwiel.net/kruisfre.htm )〕 was marketed as cantilever,〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Pedersen Bicycle: Static Theory )〕 and features a distinctive hammock-style seat. Variations include lightweight racing, tandem, and folding designs.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://www.pedersenbicycle.dk/ )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://www.pedersenbicycles.com/history.htm )〕 Other Pedersen innovations include two and three-speed internally geared rear hubs.〔
== History ==
Pedersen received a patent in the United Kingdom for his bicycle in the early 1890s and constructed the first model out of wood. He formed the Pedersen Cycle Frame Co. Ltd and when that fell into financial difficulties, production was continued by the Dursley Pedersen Cycle Co.〔 The design was also licensed to other manufacturers,〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://www.localhistory.scit.wlv.ac.uk/Museum/Transport/bicycles/Star.htm )〕 and approximately 30,000 units were produced by the early 1920s, but the design never really caught on.
In 1978, Jesper Sølling resumed production in Copenhagen and has been followed by others.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 The Pedersen )〕
