Ideo's prize-winning utility bike debuts via Kickstarter

document Crowdfunding
Summary The Faraday Porteur won a design competition last fall that CNET followed. Now its designer hopes to bring the bike to the masses by crowdsourcing the funding.
Description Vollmer has set an ambitious goal of raising $100,000 on Kickstarter in 25 days. Backers who want to buy a bike, made by a contract manufacturer in the United States, need to pony up $3,500. If they spend $10,000, they can get a "collector's edition" bike that is an authentic replica of the design that won the Oregon Manifest competition, hand-built by Rock Lobster's Paul Sadoff. Lesser contributions receive everything from a T-shirt to a set of the steam-bent wood fenders.
