A Rather Peculiar Folding Bicycle by Mikuláš Novotný

Look, I’m not a huge fan of overly-designed “concept bikes” or folding bikes either, but after spending some time on a Brompton, I’m at least being swayed in the direction of a latter. Maybe that’s why this folding bike by artist / architect Mikuláš Novotný caught my eye. It utilizes 26″ wheels, which effectively breaks it down to about the size of an S&S couplered bike for locking up, shipping or storage inside your apartment. While it’d take a lot to convince me this is the way to go for “urban cycling”, at least it’s a step in the right direction. Or is it?
