SINCLAIR ZETA I, II AND III
Zeta, a name that originated from Zero-Emission Transport Accessory, is basically an engine for bicycles. The first model, visible on the window, was launched in 1994 and cost close to £145, in England.
It sold around 15,000 units, until it was swapped for the smaller Zeta II, in 1997. The Zeta II e also show on the window.
In August 2000, model III was released, which is the bike exposed in demonstration.
The working principle was always the same. A belt that lays on the bike’s wheel, triggered by an engine that is controlled through a pressure button on the steering wheel and that helps the wheel gain speed without the driver having to put in any effort.
WARNING:
- The handle on the Zeta III is easily foldable and can break.
- The engines being showcased are very fragile and cannot be turned on for extended periods of time, so we ask our visitors to be extremely careful with them.
