Features:

  • Intricate Design: Embodying the steampunk aesthetics of UGears, the Automaton Cyclist features a detailed cyclist atop an elegant trophy with a vine wreath. The working flywheel mechanism inside the trophy base propels the cyclist to pedal the bicycle and rotate its wheels.
  • Kinetic Flywheel Mechanism: Pull the lever on the side of the model to set the flywheel in motion. The cyclist moves using kinetic energy accumulated in the flywheel. Adjust the momentum by adding or removing weight. A special slot allows you to insert a coin or metal item to alter the weight, influencing the cyclist's pedaling duration.
