Insight subject to change monthly : Update posted: 9 May 2025

PROUDLY MADE IN MELBOURNE  AUSTRALIA 


ZEHEDBIKE 2025


The Philosophy behind the Zero Emission Human Energy Device (ZEHED) at the production stage  is that; it must be able to be made from sustainable materials such as wood, steel, hides, or glass, where the use of rubber and plastics are avoided as much as possible and later totally eliminated including eliminating  the rubber tyre, which we have heavily reduced in quantity,  with the incepting ZBike, where bumps and road grip is taken care via  an unique active independent suspension system. Yep! A bike with independent suspension.


Old school skill sets pertaining to carpentry, fabrications, fitting and turning; and even the lost art of sewing will be revived. The ZBike must be  made wholly from the country of origin. The ZB manufacturing process must also have support the use of alternative forms or energy and will need to have its own test track. The Zehedbike (ZB) must produce a device which is analogue by design; no computer of computer processes/components is allowed this makes the ZB a very reliable device as products bearing analogue components that are not affected  by issues found in the digital world.


The ZB plant will also formally introduce a 35 hour working week ensuring  high end work ethics will be  apparent  at the floor level. The final device must very affordable for the masses to buy, and easy and inexpensive to repair; allowing the auspices to do with the power hungry ‘recycling’ industry to fade away as a none issue, when it comes to Zehedbike and associated devices. Above all else’s the ZB must be inexpensive to run, easy to use, and creates no emissions. In this analogue  light, if the world came to a grinding halt tomorrow, the ZB would still  allow a large number of people to move around - freely and safely. To be able walk into a retail  hardware  store to buy parts to repair the ZB, that is able to be repaired by any handy person,  is the unseen effect. The ZB will not readily  become obsolete.


Each  approved export  to another country  will involve the principal of agency to set up a ZB dealership in their country ( with their money) where the first delivery is served as a consignment. The principal sets up the agency, we’ll fill up the store with ZB where payment of each sale ( at wholesale )  is remitted  to ZB HQ monthly. This is he initial franchise-able aspect.


FTN Exporting CEO Davide Giovanni Papa as the inventor, is developing the ZB personally to prove that a person with little resources including cash; bearing great ideas, is able to create an investment project. FTNX has no engineering experience. Whether success of failure eventuates is yet to be determined, nevertheless where success is evident, our next publication  (ISPI)  will shows  the steps taken  to incept such a project; as advised to global  entrepreneurs willing to do the same. FTNX does not release any concepts without fully testing such first.  Matters offered in the FTNX doctrine of trade (ITSI) will also be used to guide the developer aspect in where the first rule prevails. (ITSI states: ensure supply is secured first) Ensure you have a rudimentary working model of your idea before seeking financial support. Ideas are worth 2 cents each as are patents; having a working  model on hand offers a greater chance of success. FTNX is making a complex device, albeit simpler inventions  will still need the insights used to develop and launch the ZB as a commercial investment project. In the increasingly  intolerable digital /internet driven world, the ZB place in the world is assured. 

 

We started with the first prototype  in 2015. The second prototype to test the drive train was completed in 2020. This third prototype and final model  to date has taken 2 years  to arrive at the current stage; and to date has cost under $50,000 dollars to develop (in material alone; without including any labour costs) With 80% compete, the ZB will be heading for road  testing next year (2026). The test will be short; mainly made to test the concept as the prototype  as a whole offering, as this third prototype  has been altered, welded and cut so many times, that we are surprised that it has survived the development stage. Many people all over the world are taking many short trips daily alone, in the comfort of a car designed to carry 4 or more adults and a trunk load of products. The ZB has all the attributes of a car, including air con, heater, wipers, doors, iPhone charger, reverse, lights, indicators, pedals, etc.etc.Taking short trips daily now means leaving the car at home for long trips while short trips are taken by the ZB. What is a short trip? 10 mile round trip (16 Kilometres). Longer trips can be planned for. It will also have ZB to ZB  relay communications where ZB will be able to notify other  ZB user within 100 metres of each other, about current roads traffic conditions at any given time. Car drivers can listen into such conversations via their car radio.The ZB currently weights 250 Kg making it a very  strong and easily repairable mode of transport- ideally suited for one person. The explorer model will also have the ability to connect a tent onto the side of the ZB.


The ZB will be sold with variable size  electric motors; depending on the country such is exported to. Currently the standard ZB is going to be sold for EUR$3000.00 including delivery world wide (FTN Exporting as experts will take care of exports which is already in place, as are supported agents.)  The initial  incepting prototype  will have a  heavy duty industry type 250 watt, 12 Volt 26 amp electric DC motor made to run on solar power and capacitors. “We have developed a capacitor motor.” We had worked out a way to use the much wanted  attributes of using large can aluminium capacitors. No batteries are needed to run the ZB. It never needs to be recharged from an outlet. The capacitors  are able to fully recharge in 6 seconds once depleted. When the ZB is peddled backwards, while the vehicles if coasting, two generators fill up the capacitors with reserve energy, well suited for night driving or  driving on cloudy days. The ZB is ideally suited for use as Police patrol in shopping centres, hot food delivery (heated compartment)  and general population road use day or night. Top speed has been limited to 50 KPH. 


When using a bike our legs steady  the bike  when moving slow and stopping. Getting a fully covered heavy  ‘bike’ to stand on two wheels at take off  was a very difficult aspect to conceive; taking 9 months alone to do so. (2 wheels allow for greater manoeuvrability) as such we are unable to fully show/disclose  the whole concept in detail to protect aspects of the invention.The mechanical non electric pilot wheels  keeps  the bike steady at low speeds and simply disconnects from the road as the speed increases. 


The standard low budget ZB is what is going to be incepted. The human energy aspect is apparent, as the driver  will need to peddle the Zbike  up to 5 KPH before it can activate the motor; this one aspect allows human energy to be used, when the most energy is needed - eliminating the use of batteries. This now infers that a driver of a ZB will benefit greatly from doing a mild work out while travelling. The ZB is able to skip over flood waters as well, another unseen feature. The ZB doe not need a battery to run. For colder climates  however a ‘locally made shunt battery,” will also be made from pure silver plates; the battery will become a valuable highly sought after product once  its life span is up. A shunt  battery lasts up to ten year and has no chemical other that plates and carbon and can accept any voltage incoming but only  outputs 12 volts that can be turned on for emergency use. The main idea of the battery is only to collect energy when the ZB is parked in the sun but not in use. The unique ability  of the ZB  is its massive back wheel, which covers a distance of 3.2 metre on one single turn. The driver sit just like they would using a bike therefore the ability for the drivers especially SUV’s to easily see the ZB users is apparent.The drive sits as high as most SUV’s.As for parking, two  ZB takes up the space of one car.It has reverse and therefore can be parked nose in.


The initial plant will make 200 ZB per day and employ 210 people at inception, which will gradually increase to 500 bikes per day or more. Assembled and pre-packed  ZB’s   will be offered when a handy person will be able to assemble the ZB under  two days. It’s not possible operate one plant to satisfy world ZB needs even if full production over a 50 year period eventuates; as such other states /countries will need to also develop a ZB manufacturing  plant under license - once the first concept is  fully proven and officially launched. Everything is based on the first plant being  successfully launched in Bacchus Marsh ,Victoria, Australia .


Investors will be sought once the concept is  proven with a 75% share to  be released to  public-world wide. 25% share is reserved  for to FTNX for its own efforts. To work out the best legal method of investment that does not involve high cost of initiating a prospectus , IPO  or money  secured via capital venture programs, is also being planned for, ensuring ‘mum and dad’ investors reap the most benefits.  The total financial outlay is AUD$ 42 million dollars of which includes financial assistance served by the Australian  Government (which we have already approached ) in the first instance (or any other Government/country in the second instance). 


The novel approach being  studies at the moment  is broadly  described as follows.  The investor is  buying  ZB parts not shares. Different parts have different values.  An investor buying let us say  5000 bolts at $1.00 each from ZB; means ZB is offering to lease the bolts from the ‘new owner’ of these bolts (investor) at a specific rate of return etc..etc. The money raised using this method funds the ZB operation aspect. Not paying bank lending rates  and mitigating high cost of inception, a high percentage of expected profits will be returned back to the investors per the rated offered on the lease agreement and supporting promissory note (Certificate).  Leasing limits will be in place to ensure a fair distribution of expected profits. The investor also obtains a generous  discount on the purchase of a ZB. The investor may also sell its  ‘inventory’ to ZB at the cash buy price value listed at any given time; as listed on its website ( yet to create). First profits to investors will be effected within 18 months of the plant formally opening (or sooner)  include initial three month employee training period before the first model is formally released. The ZB is able to travel on the road and in bike lanes. FTNX has made the effort to prove concept first. It has the ability to export ZB to qualifying countries. The business aspect is  grand by design, as is the need to curb  car emissions, at street level which currently in my opinion is causing deadly health issues to people partaking in street level social events and outside dining scenarios. We start at the street level; head to suburbs, then into the cities and eventually countries. This is how we can each, personally contribute  in reducing emissions - at street level. The ZB gives everyone ‘a free ride’ without emissions or added costs.


Shares in  the entity FTN Exporting is not part of the offer made. FTNX will incept the invention, secure land, or building that will house the first ZB factory,  and meet all statutory  legal requirements locally and for exportation.  The funds raised by leasing ‘’ZB” parts  prior to inception will fund ZB ongoing operations thereafter. Should the the ZB factory later becomes a public company listed by shares, all investors holding ‘parts’ will be offered a ‘buy out’ price as advised  on our website at such a time or have their parts held converted to actual shares.


Next update with added clarity will be served late 2025. No legally binding aspect is apparent with this insight. No investment considered until ZB testing has been successfully completed.
