B.Read the text and underline the sentences describing The Onda Cycle.

Tyler Hadzicki decided to reinvent the bicycle when he was fourteen. He developed an idea to make it better. He designed two prototypes. In 2013, 17-yearold Tyler finalized his invention. He named it “The Onda Cycle”. “Onda” means wave in Spanish and the bike moves somewhat like a wave. The Onda Cycle is a combination of three wheels. Rider is closer to the ground. The front wheel is like a regular bike, but the rear wheels are smaller. The Onda also has a wheel lock. Tyler first presented his idea in his school’s science fair. He took two patents for his invention, and he decided to bring his bike to the market. The product had over 140 sponsors. In less than a month, he raised $46,000. The Onda Cycle is safer than a regular bike because three wheels are more stable than two. This makes it harder to fall. Even you fall, the impact is very small because the biker is only 12 centimeters off the ground. You can also adjust The Onda Cycle for different rider heights. Tyler tested his bike for over a thousand hours on the road. As for speed, the bike reaches 35 kilometers per hour.
