Zigo

Zigo

Zigo is a brand of carrier bike designed by US company SOMA Cycle, Inc., located in South Orange, NJ. The fact that the company's product is convertible into a stroller as well is significant, as reported on in a full page article in the industry trade magazine Bicycle Retailer & Industry News. ["Inventor Designs Convertible Design For Child Carrier Bike", Bicycle Retailer & Industry News, March 1, 2008, pg 50.] The product has also generated interest in alternative transportation circles as reported on by Trans Scan. ["How Aching Feet Helped Rethink Child Transport", Trans Scan, Vol 8, No 4, January 2008, pg. 3] The forward-located position of the child carrier is novel in the US market, though analogous products exist in Europe.

History

The design of the Zigo Leader carrier bike was conceived of by Michael Ehrenreich in 2004, and implemented by Joel Hoag and Brian Rhee.
