Multi-person Pedal-powered Generator from Rock the Bike

The good folks at Rock the Bike, who sell a slick bicycle blender, have come up with another great pedal-powered invention from their shop in Berkeley, CA. The Biker Bar is a pedal-powered electrical generator that allows for up to 4 pedalers to combine their output. Not only that, but the whole setup can be torn down, packed up, and transported by bike.

According to Rock the Bike, “Four regular people on a Biker Bar can deliver a steady 300 watts of clean AC power, and up to 1000 Watts at peak moments.” It was used this weekend to power concerts at the Maker Faire in San Francisco.
