Draft:Montreal Bicycle Specification

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Introduction

[edit]

The Montreal Bicycle Specification was first proposed in 2024 in Montreal During Go Velo Montreal [1]. It was intended to help standardized consumer bicycles with the intention of simplifying the consumer experience.
