The two-bike pedal power system shown above uses powerful hub generators rated at higher wattages than a human can generate. This means that we’re using them in a range where they run cool, calm, and collected. They feel very smooth because there’s no friction involved. Just magnets and ball bearings.

The other key component of our Pedal Powered Stage is the Biker Bar, Rock The Bike’s newest pedal power system. It’s a 3-person Pedal Power Generator that doubles as a cargo trailer and LiveOnBike stage. One of the cool things about the Biker Bar is that it uses normal bikes, not special bikes. So a band’s fans can ride up to the Bar and save the concert!

For the past three years, Bicycle Music Festival has been an awesome goal and deadline for us to bring out the best possible Pedal Powered Stage. And each year it gets leaps and bounds better. This year we’re using 15″ JBL PRX 535 mains, a Soundcraft 12-channel mixer, 2 digitally powered monitors, and a sound guy out in the audience, where he can see the bands and hear what the audience hears. You’re in for a treat. Come ready to pedal!
