Designed by
Velomobiel.nl the Quest is, quite simply, a human powered rocket that seems
to defy the laws of physics.
Taking advantage
of wind tunnel testing, the Quest's aerodynamic body maximizes the speed that
can be achieved under pedal power, far exceeding what is possible on an upright
road, or even time trial bike. At the same time its full suspension provides a
remarkably smooth ride and drum brakes coupled with a drive train that is
isolated from the elements ensures minimal maintenance requirements. Its
fairing and kayak-style foam skirt shields the rider from the elements and
allows you to ride in comfort through the rain and the cold.
This is
the evolution of the bicycle.
Will you be one of
the lucky few to call a Quest your own?
