Clug是一款3D打印的自行车停靠架，由温哥华设计师Jon Winebrenner设计。Jon Winebrenner提到温哥华有许多人在使用自行车，自行车也是设计师本人生命中不可或缺的物件。因此自行车在大城市这种高密度的地方储存十分值得重视。这款自行车停靠架非常适合大城市中的小空间，更有利于人们倾向使用自行车。固定的方式主要是通过塑料固定件固定车轮进行固定，自行车可被横立或者竖立。安装简单，效果牢固，色彩多选。目前正在众筹网站kickstarter上寻求资金，支持自行车或者对这个产品感兴趣的小伙伴们不妨参与他们的计划吧~在kickstarter上可以看到具体的安装方法和构造示意。

任意停靠~~~~不是梦！！

The challenge, designer Jon Winebrenner explains, “was to create something new to perfprm the storage task efficiently, while offering surprise and delight.As with so many others who live in Vancouver, cycling is an essential part of my life, and storage is crucial when it comes to maximizing the use of space in a small apartment or house. Our team has used many different storage solutions but we felt some things could be improved. We think that giving more people access to usable bike storage is a small but important step in reducing hurdles preventing people from ditching their cars in favour of bikes”.

The Hurdler team has been using Clug for several months to ensure that the clips are robust enough to keep your bike secure even after incorporating some extra weight hanging from the handle bars (e.g. a helmet).

Hurdler is pursuing online sales channels as well as embracing a new digital sales model where one can purchase Clug’s 3D printer-ready digital files that can be used to print on a 3D printer similar to the Makerbot Replicator 2 (the 3D printer Hurdler used to design Clug).

The Clug system encases two screws concealed within a very robust push-fitcover that mounts to a wall or other surface at the correct height, holding the bike upright and secure without damaging the bike frame or rims.

The plastic body comes in a variety of colours and can be easily installed in minutes out of the box and onto any surface. Clug integrates style and technology, while offering urban bikers a new storage solution. The project is currently seeking funding through kickstarter.
