Hurtu Cycles by Lovatelli 99 x 137.5 cm (France) A bicycle is a human-powered, pedal-driven, single track vehicle, having two wheels attached to a frame, one behind the other. A bicycle rider is called a cyclist, or bicyclist. Bicycles were introduced in the 19th century in Europe, and by the early 21st century, more than 1 billion were in existence at a given time. These numbers far exceed the number of cars, both in total and ranked by the number of individual models produced. They are the principal means of transportation in many regions. They also provide a popular form of recreation, and have been adapted for use as children’s toys, general fitness, military and police applications, courier services, bicycle racing, and bicycle stunts. The basic shape and configuration of a typical upright “Safety bicycle” has changed little since the first chain-driven model was developed around 1885. However, many details have been improved, especially with the advent of modern materials and computer-aided design. These have allowed for a proliferation of specialised designs for many types of cycling. The bicycle's invention has had an enormous effect on society, both in terms of culture and of advancing modern industrial methods. Several components that eventually played a key role in the development of the automobile were initially invented for use in the bicycle, including ball bearings, pneumatic tyres, chain-driven sprockets and tension-spoked wheels. In the early days of the bicycle craze, cycling was largely considered to be a male activity — it was only acceptable for a woman to ride a tandem or tricycle with the husband guiding the way. Still, there was another impediment to female cycling: their long skirts, which were “de rigueur” in the late 19th century, could easily become tangled in the spokes—and should a lady’s legs be exposed while hiking up her dress, she was considered indecent. The safety bicycle was developed in 1894, and this allowed women the momentous occasion to finally cycle on their own. Advertisers were quick to realise that if women began riding bicycles, then their marketing tactics would have to adapt to increase sales. This proved to be a key moment of transformation: female consumers needed to see themselves in advertising, and the poster art obliged them. For the first time ever, women were given a key element to attaining independence—the bicycle, and all the roving possibilities that entailed—and posters emboldened this new assertion of power. Female cyclists were depicted as goddesses, warriors, angels, enchantresses, and arbiters of their own desires. In posters, the women were in charge. Posters continued their work of appealing to both female and male consumers. Their depictions of powerful goddesses could inspire female audiences, but they could also be made attractive to men. In this way, advertisers could sell the idea of machines to women and also sell the idea of women using machines to male audiences—a double marketing whammy.

Diligeon bought out his partners in 1895 and renamed the company Diligeon et Cie.
