High Efficiency Bicycle Pedal

A product opportunity exists which relates to a bicycle pedal designed to improve their efficiency by reducing the effort required by the cyclist to propel the bicycle. This will allow the cyclist to travel further distances with less effort. Tests have shown efficiciency gains of between 30 and 40% over a standard bike pedal which would appear transformational to cycling. There is a pipeline of innovative cycling related product opportunities from this idea generator.
