Новые инвесторы возрождают Skully.

По совершенно непонятным причинам нашлись инвесторы, которые решили восстановить проект многострадального шлема «Skully AR 1».
Новые инвесторы Иван и Рафаэль Контрерас разослали письма всем участникам «Skully Nation» и объявили о планах восстановить мертвый проект. Сложно найти причины, зачем кому-то продолжать неудачный бизнес, который, как многие считают, был обречен на провал, а также предал доверие многочисленной аудитории.

Новая компания «Skully Technologies» родилась на руинах «Skully, Inc.» Новое руководство хочет всё же добиться конечной цели и выпустить шлем Skully AR-1 на рынок. В заявлении также говорится, что «Skully Technologies» улучшат дополнительную реальность, виртуальную реальность и технологии искусственного интеллекта.

Всё очень туманно. В данный момент не ясно, что «Skully Technologies» собираются делать с армией покупателей, оплативших предзаказ и не получили ничего…

Компания «Skully Technologies» базируется теперь в Атланте, Джорджия. Джона Лотена назначили исполнительным директором, отвечающим за глобальное продвижение бренда. У Лотена отличное резюме (к примеру, его опыт работы в FOX Racing Shox). Иван Контрерас возглавляет испанскую фирму Torrot и не так давно восстановил испанский бренд Gas Gas. В целом, интересные люди взялись за возрождения Skully.

Best New BMW Motorcycles 2020

BMW has been enjoying great success as a motorcycle maker for up to 80 years. The German producer first sparkled in the niche as a creator of a motorcycle boxer engine. Now the company keeps up their high pace constantly implementing cutting-edge solutions.

Developed respectively in 1932 and 1942, the models R 12 and R 17 turned out to be the first bikes in the world featuring a telescopic fork with hydraulic shock absorbers instead of a leaf spring. This element is still retained in modern motorcycles.

In 1952, the company opened a new era of a boxer engine with their motorcycle R68 reached 160 km/h.

In 1978, instead of classical boxer powerplants, the models R100RS and R90S (https://bike.net/BMW/…_90_S_1973) acquired fresh single-row four-cylinder liquid-cooled motors.

In 1998, the German developer tried their hand at the creation of luxury tourist motorbikes releasing the K 1200 LT (https://bike.net/BMW/…00_LT_1999). Here aerodynamically precise elements of the motorcycle are combined with elegant controls.
