Trocyclette – the first modern footbike?

Posted on November 16, 2011 by Hobo Chang Ba

Inventor Louis-Georges BograndFede Torti of AVIS Monopattino alerted me to his article and others on the stunning discovery of the Trocyclette – a scooter with two 28″ wheels, invented by his friend’s grandfather – in 1944!

I’ve translated Fede’s article into English with the help of Yahoo! et alia and gave it its own History page on Scooter-Sport. A tip of the helmet (and a Scooter-Sport t-shirt) to Fede!
