Details

This molded plastic bicycle wheel gyroscope is durably constructed and more resistant to distortion than a spoked wheel. Convincing demonstrations of the gyroscopic forces can be made using a rotating platform and the grooved hub and starting cord make accelerating the gyroscope to a sufficient speed easy. Features free-running bicycle bearings for long-duration runs. *Only includes bicycle wheel and string with handle.

..I contacted Geyer via email. I had an email back within minutes!.. A back and forth via email sometimes takes days with other companies and customer service doesn’t happen like this very often. When it does, it’s much appreciated. Brett at Geyer was very polite and accommodating!

John C.

The customer service rep went as far as to reach out to the manufacturer of a product to answer my question, and then provided pictures. She really went above and beyond and answered the question thoroughly and gave me exactly the information I was looking for. This entire process was also extremely fast.

I called to ask how to submit a Tax Exempt Certificate for my library and spoke to a real person, no automation or asking me to press a number. He was friendly, helpful and got our Tax Exempt status established immediately.

...I don't think I've ever experienced that level of customer service before, and taking it into consideration along with the quality of their products, I would absolutely recommend Geyer to fellow teachers.
