Folding bicycle wheel February 4, 2008

Posted by Al in : clever,design , trackback

Another clever invention that will allow collapsible bikes to fold up to a reasonable size, and still manage to be comfortable when ridden. What most impressed me is the way the designer has looked at the one component that nobody else has managed to do anything with, yet is the sticking point for how small a bike can fold, and has then managed to come up with a very simple solution to the problem. I’d expect to see bikes featuring these wheels in the next year.
