How did innovation in bicycle technology lead to the creation of “the new woman”?

Bicycle was a huge part of suffragette movement in the 1890s. These soon became a tool for personal and political power. The previous bicycle designs were hard to steer, and it also needed a great deal of muscle training to master. However the new design used made bicycle accessible to anyone. Women then learned how to bike, and gained mobility and connection with other women and neighborhoods that were not the norm in those times. Victorian style soon got out of fashion, replaced by more "freeing" designs for cycling. This dress reform soon sweep through the western world and slowly more reforms are being implemented and then developing for the call for political rights to vote and be elected.
