BI UP

About this project

A strap that connects to several hubs on the bike. The strap distributes the weight of the bicycle between the shoulder and the working hand and fixes the handlebar so that its movement does not injure the user while lifting the bicycle.

The challenge

The project was designed to help Manor carry his electric bike four stories up to his apartment in the building at the end of every working day.

Who it helps

Manor, 28, lives in Ramat Gan in a building with his partner. Manor has cerebral palsy from birth which mainly affects his right hand. Manor's hand has limited mobility in the wrist area and with finger deformities.He's an independent and high-functioning.

How it works

Our solution will allow the user to lift the bike without using the limited hand and will make it easier to lift the bike.
