Kind Code:

A1

Abstract:

Provided are electricity generating bicycle wheel assemblies configured to generate electrical power. In certain embodiments, an electricity generating bicycle wheel assembly includes a hub, and an axle protruding through and rotatably attached to the hub, such that the axle is configured to rigidly attach to a bicycle frame on each side of the hub.
