John Boyd Dunlop / 约翰·博伊德·邓禄普

John Boyd Dunlop enters the wiki through No.199 自行车 200年 as the pneumatic-tire improver whose work made bicycles more comfortable and commercially attractive. The source says his 1880s tire work began from improving a child’s tricycle and became a major part of the bicycle boom.

Dunlop’s page connects product comfort to market formation. The Rover Bicycle / 罗福自行车 made the bicycle safer, while Dunlop’s tire made the ride less punishing; together they helped turn Bicycle Product Evolution into a mass-market product before the Bicycle Capital Bubble.
