The bicycle has transformed the world since its invention in 1818 by Carl von Drais von, who created the first two-wheeled riding machine called the draisine. Key developments included Pierre Lallament's improvements, James Starley's high wheel bicycle featuring modern features, and John Kemp Starley's 1885 bicycle similar to modern bikes with brakes and lower frame. The bicycle also empowered women and its manufacturing techniques influenced early cars.
