however, pedalling was hard since velocipedes wheel for the fırst time
were very heavy. Therefore, no one thought about
using them for transportation. Around 1 870, E) roads of the nineteenth century were bumpy,
American manufacturers began building making it difficult to control the bicycle
velocipedes, too, but with one difference. They
made the frameworks from hollow steel tubes,
making velocipedes much lighter, but riders still
had to work hard to pedal just a short distance.
Soon, the British inventors found the method which
can make pedalling more efficient to turn pedals
one by one. They designed a bicycle with a giant
front wheel . However, as the rider had to sit high
above the giant front wheel it was too diffıcult to
keep the balance. American manufacturers once
again tried to design a safer bicycle. They
substituted a small wheel for the giant front wheel
and put the driving mechan ism in a larger rear
wheel . At last, the British changed the design one
last time and added two wheels equal in size and
the mechan ism that induce a chain to turn the rear
wheel. With this final change, the modern bicycle
was born.
