easy on the Planet Gocycle uses an environmentally-friendly process called Thixomolding® to create its high-tech, durable, ultra-lightweight magnesium frame and wheels. The Thixomolding® process does not produce any ozone depleting SF6 emissions, but will still give the rider the similar weight and structural benefits as carbon fibre. Magnesium is widely available and much easier to re-cycle than other materials like carbon fibre. Both the monocoque chassis and the Pitstop-Wheel® are made using a special magnesium moulding process called Thixomolding®. This is a first for any two

fastest wheel in the world On September 2013 in Battle Mountain, Nevada, Gocycle’s Pitstopwheel® became the fastest bicycle wheel in the world when the VeloX reached a top speed of 133.78 km/h (83.6 mph) setting a new world speed record for human-powered vehicles.
