According to the developers, a diver can successfully and efficiently use the SEABIKE instead of an electric scooter. The estimated endurance distance at a 12-15-meter depth, covered by a diver equipped with a 12 liter compressed air cylinder amounts to two and a half kilometers in 45 minutes. The device can be assembled and taken apart without tools in a matter of a minute.The SEABIKE has been created in order to establish new, more equal relations between man and sea — and the required energy does not exceed the amounts, consumed when walking on land; the man on the SEABIKE and can travel in water the same distance, at the same speed, at the same level of power consumption as on land. There is nothing unusual about walking a few miles at a leisurely pace; the same concerns the SEABIKE, which enables you to cover similar distances. To understand the functional concept of this sports equipment, imaging a swimmer, who pushes off the swimming pool walls and flies like an arrow; in our case the swimmer is pushing off the pedals instead of the wall. The sports option of the SEABIKE is fitted with clip-in pedals, to which special sandals are
mounted; when one leg is pushing the pedal down, the other leg pulls the other pedal thus doubling the capacity the way bicycle racers do. According to the developers, a diver can successfully and efficiently use the SEABIKE instead of an electric scooter, avoiding the problems of charging and transporting the batteries. It is worth remembering that the estimated endurance distance at a 12-15-meter depth, covered by a diver equipped with a 12 liter compressed air cylinder amounts to two and
a half kilometers in 45 minutes.
It can be used for pure fun as well as for exploring the underwater world at anchor; and its ability to cover a few dozen kilometers in unexpected emergencies will certainly come in handy. When folded and packed, the SEABIKE is not more than 70 cm long and weighs 3.5 kg: this package will be conveniently stored aboard any motor or sailing yacht. The SEABIKE has already found its admirers on beaches and at holiday resorts: the device is being offered for rent at water sports equipment centers. The purchased option of the SEABIKE can be easily upgrade and retrofitted. The suitable accessories have already been manufactured, namely: vest, raft, streamlined mini horizontal rudder. The device can be assembled and taken apart without tools in a matter of a minute. The modular design of the SEABIKE allows one to replace any damaged or lost parts quickly and effortlessly. It is easy to upgrade the device, mounting the details of the sports option, as well as to dismantle the auxiliary components and parts in the course of gaining your experience — for example, the steering wheel plus the compensator of the propeller reactive torque, extra buoyancy elements. The minimum configuration weighs 2 kg and can be packed in a 40- sm bag.
