The source for the "hailed as the first major development in bicycle design for 150 years" is unsourced. Yes, it is on the BBC site, but it is in the
Magazine section which takes a look at quirky issues. The claim is not attributed to anybody and the only person quoted in the article is the bike's
227:
inventor which means that the claim is likely to have come from the inventor himself. An invention is just that - an invention. There is no evidence in the article or anywhere else that the inventor has managed to sell the bike to any manufacturer. It remains, therefore, not notable.
259:
I find the article interesting and clearly notable, as (very obviously) do the BBC. The sideways bike is relevant to bicycle dynamics & control theory, which are where I found this article from. The aggressive approach to deletion & B1atv's grumpy attitude, are unnecessary and
302:
Neither do I see the POV issue. This article already reasonably approximates an NPOV. I do not believe anyone will be confused into buying a 'sideways bicycle' when they intended an ordinary, by this article.. Does nobody have anything better to do than making snippy complaints.
198:
The article should not be deleted for three reasons. Firstly, it is not about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or about web content. Furthermore, the sideways bike has been hailed as the "the first major development in bicycle design for 150 years"
201:]). Finally, the article is a stub. I was going about finding more information about the bike to write a longer article, and then suddenly its up for speedy deletion. I know it's meant to be speedy, but comeon, give me a chance to actually write an article!
