  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% m  |; V$ o5 K2 J

  由于骑车者围坐一圈就像开会一样,所以这种新型自行车也被戏称作是“会议自行车”。不过发明者斯泰勒更愿意将这种自行车称作是“微笑机器”,他认为这是最具有社交性的交通工具。

  斯泰勒称,由于骑这种车需要齐心协力,所以异性朋友们骑着它外出兜风时,甚至可能会彼此产生感情,坠入爱河。斯泰勒说:“这是一个将人们团结到一起的革命性方法,人们需要这种自行车,我认为好朋友们应该走出他们的汽车,离开他们的沙发,一起骑着这种自行车外出郊游!即使陌生人骑上这种车,不要几分钟也能成为朋友,异性朋友甚至能在骑车时坠入爱河,此外,你只需靠自己的能量———可重复更新的能量就能让它运转起来!”  人在德国 社区4 p% B/ D$ k! G( U5 H, s; L4 i

- [; G: E4 T+ A- P# j1 A"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.
