history of the bicycle

Year 1839

The Duke of Marlborough donated a unique hobby horse to the science museum, which was used by his ancestors to transport gardens. It is a rare women’s design and weighs 66 pounds. In 1821, Louis Gompertz, an English inventor, enhanced the Draisienne by adding gears and bolts to the front wheels, while still relying on foot power. This modification allowed riders with strong legs to achieve speeds of 16 to 22 kilometers per hour.

Year 1860

Between 1825 and 1870, the “velocipede” gained popularity as a ground-propelled transportation device. Pierre Lallement, who immigrated to America after separating from the Michaux family, built the Velocipede and earned the nickname “Boneshaker.” The Michaux family, skilled in industry and marketing, greatly contributed to the production of Velocipedes. They sponsored races and demonstrations, leading to increased bicycle production.
