Obree has created some radical innovations in bicycle design and cycling position but has had problems with the cycling authorities banning the riding positions his designs required. Obree has been very open about living with bipolar disorder and depression, and the fact that he has attempted suicide three times, using his experiences as a means of encouraging other sportspeople to talk about their own mental health.
His life and exploits have been dramatised in the 2006 film ''The Flying Scotsman'' and more recently in the documentary film ''Battle Mountain: Graeme Obree's Story'', which follows his journey to Battle Mountain, Nevada to compete in the 2013 World Human Powered Speed Championships.
In March 2010, he was inducted into the Scottish Sports Hall of Fame. Provided by Wikipedia
