Called the Raht Racer, this pedal-powered cycle amplifies pedal power to enable cyclists to travel at car speeds of up to 100mph, and it has a roof to keep you dry in wet weather to boot. This three-wheeled vehicle features an ultra lightweight composite body with room for everything a mobile warrior needs, such as a laptop, messenger bag and even lunch. To keep things safe, its designers have employed a roll cage, air bags and seat belts. “Safer than a motorcycle, or bicycle on a busy street, the Raht has an integrated roll cage, reinforced carbon fiber body and automotive safety features like headlights, tail lights, seat belts & air bag.
