During the Victorian era, cycling became safer primarily due to advancements in bicycle design and road infrastructure. The introduction of the "safety bicycle" in the 1880s, which featured a chain drive and equal-sized wheels, made cycling more stable and accessible. Additionally, the establishment of dedicated cycling clubs and advocacy for better road conditions contributed to increased awareness of cyclist safety. By the late 19th century, these developments led to a growing popularity of cycling, accompanied by improved safety measures for riders.

The first bicycle in Victorian times was the "penny-farthing," invented by British inventor James Starley in the 1870s. Although the concept of two wheels connected by a frame dates back earlier, Starley's design featured a large front wheel and a smaller rear wheel, which became popular during the Victorian era. His innovations significantly influenced bicycle design and laid the groundwork for modern cycling.
