James Dyson Award winner Christine Outram was at World Maker Faire showing off her winning Copenhagen Wheel design. The self-contained power-wheel captures and stores energy released when braking and cycling and stores it for when a rider could use a little assist. The wheel is controlled via a mobile phone.

Spell check: “stores energy released when breaking and cycling”. It’s Brake, not break. Literacy counts.
So, this BIKE has something that needs to be controlled via a PHONE?
How about a button near the hand grip? Really, whats the point?
