Cycling and sailing combined

Energy is what moves the universe. And we need energy to move. Whike proposes us to use pure natural resources to move around. And the wind helps us to save the physical energy it costs to move around pedalling on a bicycle.

The highly efficient and reliable technology of cycling is a miracle in itself, combined with a good wind in the sail, the speed and distance one can cycle becomes legendary.

Many have tried, Whike was lucky to end up in a salutary storm.

The Whike was invented by Fredjan Twigt. Fredjan was already land-sailing on the beach as a boy. He was educated as an architect and broadened his passion for design. He started designing recumbent bicycles, many of them have been in production for years. In 2007, he decided to combine his two passions and started a long list of different Whike prototypes. They all came together in one unique design: the Whike was launched in 2009.

All the further improvements that have been made are compatible with the original model.
