Line Bicycles allow linesmen to safely travel along transmission-line conductors and earth wires. The advantage of a Line Bicycle is that they are muscle-powered. Without any motorization, the operator can conveniently pedal along the line for inspection and installation of spacers, vibration dampers or aircraft warning spheres. Models for the single conductor, twin, triple, and quad-bundled conductors are available.

Characteristics:

• high-tensile ball-bearing mounted neoprene sheaves with fall protection

• static braking device with jaws locking on conductors, controlled by lever

• dynamic disc braking device at the drive shaft, controlled by lever

• adjustment to conductor spacing between 400 and 510 mm

• comfortable sitting position

• fall protection

• meter counter device
