5. Ville Hela-Aro / Jarno Lindberg / Rochale Yates4 08.10.2012 ”Simplicity” CONCEPT Our aim was to create an everyday product that would simply and seamlessly transition into the lives of cyclists with young children. Whereby, it could eliminate the need for the user to purchase a stroller in addition to a child transportation system for their bike. The intent for the final design was that it would be able to be utilized as a fully functioning bicycle buggy, comfortable stroller, and when no child is present, a small flat bed trailer for minor shopping tasks. The simple, yet dynamic, all-in- one system would also remove the need for additional kits to be purchased later on, should the user wish to transform their buggy into a stroller, or vice versa. An essential feature of the product is the mechanism which allows the buggy to be easily removed from the bike and then becomes the handle of the stroller, and yet is simple and intuitive to operate.
