This bike has been designed to fit our urban environment and public transportation systems. Riding ordinary bike, it’s impossible for you to carry it into the bus or the train. One of the rules to bring your bike in the train or bus is that no sharp details and no visible chain. “Urban Collapsible Bicycle” integrates chain, light, gears, and many details into a slip-in bag that is developed to cover the bike and minimize the risk of someone near us getting hurt from it.

The saddle is ergonomically designed to allow you easily adjust its position. The beautiful asymmetrical frame makes this bike more appealing to the eyes. One of the main objectives in this project was to create easy and fast folding procedures. “Urban Collapsible Bicycle” has been designed to address this issue, only 3 steps required to fold the bike: one mechanism for the saddle, one for the fork and handlebar, and the last one, turn the handles and pedals in.

An innovative Fusion Model has been unveiled by the Christchurch Company that already developed the electric folding YikeBike. This new model is slightly heavy than the innate carbon fibre bike, however it is slightly lighter on the pocket. While the archetype is made out of carbon fibre, the Fusion frame as well as the structural parts are made out of alloy and strengthened polymer composite, which clearly marks the differentiation between the two. Weight approximately 14kg in comparison to the 10.8kg carbon fibre bike, the Fusion bile costs just US$2000, much cheaper than the carbon fiber bike which sells for US$3000. People always wanted to buy a bike via a distributor so that they could test the same. This was the main reason for why the company unveiled the Fusion model at a much lower price point. Nevertheless, the fusion model would certainly meet the demands of the people. The YikeBike was groundbreaking at aconcept and at execution level, with sound programs to drive mass market adoption, said the judges.

The name of VEU stands for Vehiculo Electrico Unipersonal or in English Individual Electric Vehicle. As you probably can guess, the main objective of this bike is to design a collapsible bike where you can carryalmost anywhere. A bike can carry you from one point to another, like from your house to a bus stop, however, most of the time, you have to leave/park your bike somewhere if you’re going to get on the bus. Using VEU – individual electric vehicle, all you need to do is fold the bike and carry it with you.

Turn VEU into a trolley in seconds to carry your stuff. Once you get to your destination, flip open the bike easily. It’s pretty much the answer to short distance travel.
