This bicycle machine pumps water at 5-10 gallons per minute
from wells and boreholes up to 30 in meters depth, (com-
pared to an electric pump that only pumps up to 12 meters
deep). Provides irrigation and drinking water where electricity
is not available.
Components include a bicycle, wheels removed, attached to
strong angled uprights, set in a concrete base. The flywheel is
made from a bicycle wheel with side walls from a car tire at-
tached with wire. Concrete gives the flywheel weight. The fly-
wheel stand is also set in a concrete base.
