  据悉,这辆自行车拥有保时捷的方向盘、多个由踏板控制的水压刹车、一个停车刹以及车灯,这种7座自行车能够安全承载635公斤的重量,并以最高每小时24公里的速度行驶,所有7名骑车者都有脚踏板可以踩动,即使其中一两个乘客想偷懒休息一下,另外几人也能让这辆车继续前进。不过,7人中只能有一个人可以掌控方向盘。  rs238848.rs.hosteurope.de  R4 B2 p( v7 m! T# ^' E7 B5 ]

All seven riders can pedal, although the bike, which uses three motorbike wheels, can still move if one or more riders fancy a breather. But one of the riders always has to man the steering wheel.

Though the bike costs a whopping 5500 pounds plus shipping, Eric Staller, its inventor from Amsterdam believes it will be a success as it is the world's most sociable mode of transport.

"People need this bike. I think people are ready to get out of their cars and off their sofas and get silly. It lowers inhibitions and after a few minutes even complete strangers begin talking to each other. People have even fallen in love on these bikes. And you move along on your own energy - renewable energy," the Daily Mail quoted Staller as saying.人在德国 社区0 z& |  G, @7 _* I
