How about a ride?

How about a ride?

If you just want to take some time away from your gadgets, go for a nice ride in the park, or just need a small and interesting mean of transportation, then maybe you should take a look at this bike from the designer Thomas Owen. You might find other interesting concepts on his site, so feel free to check it out if you want.

This bicycle is called “One“.It makes me think of the Tolkien Lord of the Rings trilogy and the “one ring”, cause if I’d want a bike, that would definitely be it. the One looks incredible and has great functionality also, cause when you don’t need it you can just pack it into a nice suitcase and put it under the desk or in the closet. So this bike is easy to store and you won’t have to deal with the dirty chains of the ordinary bikes anymore.

The One bike: design and functionality

While opened, the “One” brings up all the benefits of cycling (physical exercise, cheap way to travel, fun) and the producers claim it has an unique power assist system, that would make cruises more pleasant.

The producers of the One bike must have really liked the Transformers cartoon series, no?

I may say that I’m impressed. With the current pollution in the big cities (including the one i live in), not to mention the so often met road blockages, a quick and ergonomic mean of getting from a point to another, like this bike, would certainly be a benefit. I just wonder how many people understand the need for ecological transportation methods and would accept to give up their fancy leather seated Mercedes for a the “One” bike… I would, but, hey, i’m not one of those people…
