Article Summary

Boston-based Parlee Cycles is working on a concept bicycle which will reportedly feature thought-controlled gear shifting. Under development as part of the Toyota Prius Projects, the PXP as it's officially known, sits somewhere between a time trial bicycle and a road bike in terms of geometry and would use neurotransmitters in the helmet to operate an electronic gear shift.
