Bicycle lift

They are used where the steepness of a slope or other situations like subway crowds make riding uphill difficult.

[4] The cyclist remains astride their bicycle and puts one foot on the conveyance's pedal, which is attached to a cable within the track.

[3] A trampe lift in Trondheim, Norway,[6] formerly coin-operated, is now free (it starts on a button-press[7]) and has become a major tourist attraction.

[2][4][11] The front brake must be released as the bike leaves the travelator, especially if it immediately has to turn a corner.

[12] They may be made to adapt their speed to the walking pace of the cyclist and take all diameters and widths of bicycle wheels.

If not in use, they hang well above head height (except at the ends of the overhead towline, where they are low enough to reach, pull down, and attach to the bike).
