ZEHEDBIKE
We thank you for all enquires made regarding the ZBIKE. The following information should satisfy such enquiries. No other information will be released until road testing period begins. Please note as the project advances , prior aspect may change or may become more accurately defined.Please note ; do not distribute this webpage, as we are not yet ready to formally advise further , aspect herein , which is designed serve FTNX USCT members and invited others. The official ZEHEDBIKE website will come online when the project has passed the road testing stage fully.
A two wheel covered ‘bicycle’ ( as defined by law, its a bike) made for one person, allows us all to enjoy urban driving once more, with all the comforts of a car, without ever needing to buy emission laden fuel, batteries or use charging stations. The very affordable all ‘peoples’ bike is the first unique standard model of its kind in this series.The ‘Aqua’ model will also float in places where flooded roadways are often evident. The second device is defined as ZEHEDAIR, which is another first, defined as a ZEHED-BIKE (pronounced: ZED-BIKE)without wheels, as we eliminate another high carbon emitting product - synthetic rubbers. Other ZEHED devices are currently being investigated as we expand the ZEHED Manufacturing aspect world wide.
PREAMBLE
With the continuing success of “International Trade and the Successful Intermediary” (ITSI) FTN exporting has scaled down commodity trading to only consider large revolving contracts of NBC shipments, as we introduce ISPI. The publication ISPI will be our second formal publications describing intently once again, using actual experience, on how an informed intermediary could create an investment project and use the FTNX Beta Doctrine of Trade or ITSI to create markets for the final product created via the final proposal initiated under an investment project. The PCT looking towards other entrepreneurial aspect of large international investment projects, can draw a wide inferences from ISPI, which will describe FTNX ZEHED-BIKE Investment Project in depth; to include aspects about creating the product and securing investment funds thereafter. It’s a huge technically challenging project, as such, smaller projects should also follow the same routine as applied in creating the Zehed-bike. “Just like the doctrine dogma states- always secure the product first; applies in matters of ISPI as well.”
ABOUT ZEHED-BIKE
The ZEHED-BIKE will be ready for full production in 2026. The invention was fully created and prototype subsequently to be built by FTN Exporting CEO and inventor Davide Giovanni Papa. Australian suppliers of Australian made or assembled raw products used in the construction of the ZB may submit what they have to offer by the way of raw materials, to FTN exporting for filing and later reference, when the time comes to formally introduce the Z-Bike to the world. Products we are unable to secure from within Australia will be manufactured in our factory where possible. Imported metals /products converted to parts within Australia are not accepted, as the criteria of the project requires that raw material used in the construction of the initial ZBIKE must be sourced in Australia (Shell and Frame and running gear without electronic components). Difficult to manufacture parts in particular electronic components which simply cannot be made in Australia due to viability factors or lack of manufacturing experience or expertise will be purchased from USA, England, Japan, Italy, New Zealand or Germany. The ZBike electrical components are the parts that we will be mostly importing. ZBIKE is a hand made product carrying long lasting high quality very reliable ‘solid state’ components, to serve the transport industry with full consideration of curbing climate change issues. “Sure, many who have followed my postings over the decades know, I don’t believe in climate change and the nonsense associated with such; but many do. This product will test the conviction of such people. In any case I do believe in the virtues of living on a planet with cleaner air.”
Initial project will call for 377 workers ( and 39 apprentices) harbouring various skill sets pertaining to carpentry as well as fitting and turning and metal fabrication, leather work, is being resurrected. The flow on effect into the supply chain and export strings as a well as local retail sales will generate thousand of added jobs by default. Finished product to be sold internationally at first in conjunction with selected FTNX USCT agents (FTNX will consign supply to selected and capable territorial agents) as FTN Exporting is already a leader is this aspect. Factory production line will be established in Bacchus Marsh, Victoria, Australia. Workers will be paid for a full 5 day 40 hour week while only working a 4 day 35 hour shift on the condition no public holiday rates are paid ( yet to be raised with relevant unions). This aspect will allow the factory to remain open 365 days per week.Well paid less stressed workers , will often increase productivity and besides all benefits paid, workers have 5.0% bonus of sales initiated once yearly. Worker employed by ZB must feel a personal connection to the product they are helping to build. ZBIKE prototype is nearing completion with final certified road testing to take place in early 2025. A new website will be incepted at this time dedicated to matters of the ZEHED-BIKE. No products from China or India will be considered as the aim is to produce a high quality product locally and revive past manufacturing aspects which were once common in Australia; without relying on the use of products from China or India. FTNX has been promoting such aspect for decades, when it first conceived the ZBIKE.
ABOUT THE ‘ZEHEDBIKE’
A fully covered self charging 2 wheeled ‘bike’ ( built sturdy like a car) except it has foot peddles that requires 50% human energy and 50% solar energy to produce 100 percent efficiency without any emissions being produced. No batteries are used to feed the 12 Volt 250 Watt 30 AMP electric motor. One full crank of the ZBIKE peddle delivers a unique travel distance of 3.12 metres. Solar energy is collected and ‘stored’ to power its 250 watt electric motor. Large can capacitors will hold the required 30 seconds worth of useable current until used, with a recharge time of 5 seconds once capacitor are depleted. “It’s like carrying pure electricity in a suitcase without the heavy costly aspects of storing large dirty batteries.” The Zbike is not a ‘Pedelec’ type of bike. Standard features include, ZBike to ZBike line of sight communication, radio, UV filtrations (to kill viruses entering the Pod) side windows, full dash and instrumentation, using a combination of buttons, switches as well as LED components, reverse, 2 doors/widows, disc brakes, air con, heater, indicator lights, phone charger, seat belt, and even a coffee cup holder.etc.etc. There is ‘no excuse’ to take the car for short trips. When no Sun is available, peddling backwards while coasting forward will charge the capacitor in under 7 seconds takes care of night time or cloudy day driving. Two pilot wheels are lowered to steady the ZBike when not moving, when the ZBike attains a speed of under 5 KPH.
ELIMINATE TAKING CAR FOR SHORT TRIPS
ZBike trunk can carry an added 12 kilos (ideal for shopping). No gears are required as a special feature of its drive allows for torque to match the speed of the unique oversized ‘Chariot’ style back wheel. The purpose of the ZBIKE is designed to eliminate the use of the petrol car for short trips, where at peak times often ‘one person’ is seen driving such petrol /battery /hydrogen fuelled cars, suited to carry 4 people at short distances is not conducive to matters of curbing carbon emissions.This is the issue. Many people driving short distances in a vehicle designed to do a lot more other than polluting the air. The ZBike will make driving fun once more.’ A ZBIKE is designed for lifetime use, where spare parts and ease of replacing parts plays its ‘part’ in reducing carbon emission as the cost of ‘recycling’ products often cost more and produces more emission than when the product was made.
ALL PEOPLE’S VEHICLE
Planned obsolescence is now a thing of the past. Long lasting reliable products are now the focus of future manufacturing basis world wide. ZBike will be able to reach high speeds but will be restricted to not go beyond 45 KPH when under power. The ZBIKE is made for everyone to use for local suburban driving situations (including, Paramedic, heated food delivery, amphibian and police supercharged 600/750 Watt models are envisaged) Currently the ZBike will be offered at the affordable WORLD WIDE delivered price of around AUD$ 5000.00/5500.00 (2022/23 basis) for the basic standard model and AUD$ 6600.00 for the executive model. A uniform standard world wide retail export price will establish the ZEHEDBIKE as a valuable re-sellable commodity is again another FTN Exporting initiative. Licence to manufacture ZBikes in other states and countries will be offered once the incepting factory proves viability, as the need and demand for this kind of transport system will be great for many decades as climate change rhetoric escalates. Even Nordic countries where yearly availability of sunlight is diminished, a complimentary 1 2 Volt battery connection sockets will be included to ensure longer period of clean sustained driving in colder climates, may be utilised as needed. An input also included to fit a common over the counter 18 to 24 volt / 5.0Ah power tool battery to assist with lights and heating in very cold countries. The ZBIKE is built using the principle of “over compensation” in where each part used greatly exceeds international minimum standards. This aspect will ensure the longevity status of the ZBike. The weight of the ZBike is an important factor as a ‘heavier’ and stronger ‘bike’ adds to the overall claims made. Without the burden of batteries, weight is added to the frame to make it very strong. Parts when needed, will be inexpensive and repairs, can easily be done is also an added unseen feature. The ZBike will have anti theft devices fitted as well. “ Nobody with throw a ZBike away-ever. ” Very low emissions to produce, no emissions when driving, and recycling matters will not be an issue. Blank unpainted models are also available for budding artist to add their own artwork to the parts of the body not covered by solar panels.
INVESTMENT POTENTIAL
FTNX will initiate the final prototype and secure infrastructure locally for the first factory before call to invest become available. At this time, no IPO issuance will be considered. Private funds will be secured locally and internationally where 80% of net profits are returned to investor directly yearly as a dividend. FTNX as founder and inventor will retain 20% stake for its financial contributions and long personal efforts made to incept the project.5.0% bonus share to worker come from this personal gain. The investment value (80% stake ) is now currently set at under US$33,000,000.00. Local and federal government will also be approached to serve part of this investment. ZBIKE will become profitable within 16 months of operations commencing, after 4 month training period is over. Entering the export market is already assured via FTN exporting. 20,000 up to 40,000 ZBikes to be built per year is planned, where maximum production capabilities to be arrived at by the end of the initial 16 months of commencing operations. Other ZEHED devices are also planned. Should ZBike factory need to rapidly expand after 2 years, current investors will have their capital (stake) paid out; or as an option may be converted to the share value supporting an issuance of a prospectus or IPO, once the value of the operations become a proven aspect.
USING THE ZBIKE
Your parked Zbike is already lapping up the morning sun. The excess energy will automatically either cool the cabin down or heat it up depending on the outside temperature. The Zbike is sitting on two retractable pilot wheels.You enter the cabin by opening the door. Their seat is taken, seat lap belt is applied (option). Steering arm is gripped firmly in hand.The driver must peddle first to get the Zbike travelling at 5 KPH or more. This is very important as the need for large batteries is mitigated by the fact that human energy is used when the most power is needed- at takeoff. The Zbike is designed to drive at this speed effortlessly. At 5 KPH press the throttle on the steering arm half way and the Zbike will take off. If the sun is partly covered by clouds, peddling backwards will also charge the bike in seconds while the Zbike is coasting. As the Zbike picks up speed, let go of the throttle to coast the ZBIKE, within seconds the Zbike is again fully charged able to supply 30 seconds of direct power as needed. The ZBike has a massive rear wheel and rear bearing made for coasting. Once a clear path is apparent, press the throttle all the way down; at maximum power for 30 seconds the Zbike will pick up to reach speeds of in access of 40 KPH quickly. If the road is long, let go of the throttle so that the Zbike coasts e.g at 40 Kph; it will then take 5 seconds to recharge the Zbike with another 30 seconds worth of stored energy. With this process especially on full Sunny days the Zbike could cover vast distances and reach high speeds. At night time the same process applies except now there is no sunlight, therefore by peddling backwards for 3 or 4 seconds , the bike becomes charged for 30 seconds. If it’s raining wipers are fitted. If it’s cold, a heater is available. If it’s very hot, the unique ZBike air conditioner may be switched on. If on the road, with other ZBike commuters, the ZBIKE communicator allows a Zbike driver up to 50 metres aways to advise by speaking in the cabin, drivers behind , of any adverse driving situations encountered and visa versa, creating an informed ZBike community. E.g: ZBike 007 mains street blocked ahead… take alternative route..etc..etc. The Zbike Com can be turned off or on at will. Breaking is applied by moving the steering arm forward. The more forward it is pushed, the more breaking is applied. Zbike uses solid rubber tyres for now; which means no flat tyres. We are working on future wheel designs to eliminate using rubber on the wheel. Parking is done nose out is best practice. If you do get stuck ‘nose in’ where reverse is needed, a switch allows the ZBike to pulsate reverse current to the back wheels– to allow slow reversing applications. Steering is road direct. The driver ‘feels’ the road intently all times especially when hugging corners. Air into the cabin must pass UVC light. It must also pass UVC light on the way out; making the cabin a 99.0% virus free environment. Series II ‘Aqua’ model, will also be able to cross flood waters. Steep hills are tackled by traveling up such hills in a zig zag manner, by using corresponding side streets. Series I will come with very strong 6 mm acrylic windows. Series II will come with harden glass screens as we eliminate further carbon emitting products and footprints therein. Interior will use mostly wool, cotton, calf and rabbit skins.Where allowed, larger motor and even things like a Defibrillator (medical services) or hot food delivery compartment can be added as the Zbike can carry an access of between 10 and 20 kilograms.Police mall/laneway patrols can also be conducted with Zbike as provisions such as handcuff railing can be incorporated. While powering and coasting the Zbike initial test have easily reached 60 kph, as such the Zbike will have speed limiter applied when exported to some countries. The ZBike has electronic locking and anti theft devices which cannot be ‘hot-wired’ as well as a micro spotted frame with details to identify the Zbike a with its owner. Iphone charger and a cup holder are included. A large led light dash showing power consumption and speedometer.etc.etc is also fitted as are night lights and turning indicators. Input for e.g: hairdryer, shavers, suit case/coat / bag holder etc.. also included. Should the motorised aspect unlikely break down; a “get you home” peddle mode is available as is a front towing bar. All the comforts of a car, now serves reason to leave the car at home to favour the Zbike when taking short trips. For long trips and ‘adventures’ electrical output on the outside is also available. Countries where helmets must be worn when riding a bike, ( hopefully such laws will not be applied to the Zbike) the ZBike has a head rail so that the Zbike helmet can remain attached to such after the drivers exits. The pilot wheels remain down and are mechanically lifted once the throttle is activated. A loss of power means the pilot wheels remain down.
Next Update Planned: Feb 2024
