Storing your bike can be a real pain in the neck primarily because the handlebar takes up so much space although the rest of the bike is rather slim and takes up minimal space when stacked against a wall. Over the years, many solutions to this dilemma have evolved such as the folding bike. But buying another bike is certainly not the best solution. Relieve yourself of bike storage problems with the FlipCrown.
The FlipCrown is designed by Patrick Jacquet and Rob de Schutter who are avid bikers themselves. A must have accessory for every biking enthusiast, it allows you to flip the handlebars 90-degrees to get it out of the way for easy storage. Now, storing your bike will no longer be a hassle. Its an elegant and discreet design and most importantly it fits most types of bikes.
Rob de Schutter explains that one of their reasons for developing FlipCrown was because he wanted to keep his vintage bike rather than invest in a new and expensive bike. Using this accessory is relatively easy. Simply loosen the stembolt, push the Flipcrown button, and flip the handlebars. This neat accessory comes with its own hex key so you can lock your bike in a flipped position making it a great deterrent for thieves.
It looks like besides Patrick and Rob, many other cyclists think that it is a great idea as well. The project quickly reached its funding goal on Indiegogo. The FlipCrown is available in two sizes so it will fit most bikes. Indeed, the FlipCrown makes storing bikes a less stressful endeavor.
