A New Way to Park Bicycles.. Hang them in a Bike Tree!

great machine for suicide

這停車塔還瞞酷的~~結構不複雜又能防小偷

很有創意的停車傘，整齊美觀方便，
台北(Taipei)應該引進這種 !

bikes grow on trees? lol i did not know

Upcycle, this is such a neat idea! But it's probably going to be steep for the $75 bike club. Here in Los Angeles there are lots of riders who do have the bikes that need that kind of security. Are there plans for a manual unit? A mall or school or a transit station would get lots of usage, but also lots of wear. It's a much neater footprint than bike lockers, there's lighting, and I can definitely see it going into theme parks. Good Idea! Please try to get into Universal Studios.

- thanks but how come it's solar?
- even solar doesn't meant to be wasted.
- biking saves the planet, not supposed to be another format eating power.
- before wow/civilizing the city by building mushrooms and hanging bikes midair all around, why don't they think about how to make this city thiefless?

it probably would be built with a certain weight fail safe that would not all it to go up when it reachs that weight limit. And would just allow the arm to drop back down to bottom with no harm to the unit.. kind of like built in safety with elevator doors.

Cards may be one of several options. Another option may be use of biometrics and/or and a password. Or perhaps a username/password . This may be created online with all builtin safe guards like setting up user profile like DOB secret questin/answer retrieval system 4 those that forget thier codes. And perhaps it could even be set up 2 send text message reminder? ability to change the passcode on fly (for added security capabilities). may also be able to register bike(desc/serial#) 2 user acct?

Then it would be damn expensive to hae a card to make it rendable for the company who makes these things.
