World's Fastest Pedal-Powered Bicycle

[h2]World's Fastest Pedal-Powered Bicycle[/h2]



Here is the world's fastest pedal-powered bicycle build by a bike owner, Jason Rourke. He spent 10 days and £5,000 building a specialized mountain bike that straight goes into record book, as Rourke rode his bike at an astonishing speed of 112.94 mph.



The previous record for a pedal-powered bicycle was 83.13 mph, set by Dutch cyclist Sebastiaan Bowier in September 2013. The record shattering attempt took place at Pendine Sands in South Wales. Rourke was towed to a speed of 50 mph and then released, going on to a speed of over 112 mph on his own.
