Mibo

Student Project with Transition Bicycles // Fall 2012 // Design

A water storage solution for cyclists that resolves current issues and improves the riding experience.

Current Problems

Current bottles force riders to tip their head when water gets low, dangerously taking their eyes off the road.

Rigid bottles are uncomfortable in jersey pockets.

Bottle cages clutter sleek frames and can be difficult to reach while riding.

Research & Inspiration

Popular cycling bottles
Angled heads
Flexible materials

Findings

Tip the bottle instead of the head,

use a soft material,

and eliminate the need for a bottle cage.
