Providing further evidence that the future will be pedal-powered, Dutch brand Taga has launched an eco-stroller-bike much like the Zigo Leader and trioBike models we’ve written about before. A recent winner of the Red Dot Design Award, the Taga bike uses simple click-to fit technology that allows it to be switched from stroller mode to bicycle mode in just 20 seconds. Child seating can be reclined for a sleeping little one, and there’s both a hood and rain guard for protection against the elements. Future options will include seating for two children, a car seat adapter, a cart mode, a wooden double seat and extra front-end protection. The Taga is available in stores throughout Europe and the UK, where pricing is GBP 1,695. Looking for a future-proof investment? Then look no further than the world of bicycle-based innovation and brainstorm ways to replace four wheels with two. With all the many reasons to kick the gasoline habit, one might say it’s the pedal-powered—not the meek—who shall inherit the earth! 😉 (Related: Lightweight electric bike targets urban commutersWaitrose using bicycles & carts for greener deliveries.)
