Image:Concertgen2.jpg|24v, 800rpm permanent magnet generators were bolted to the side of a trailer used to tow the system to events. Each bike and generator was isolated from the others using a one way blocking diode. This allowed each person to pedal at their own pace and prevented the generators from drawing electricity from the battery bank, causing them to function as motors.
