Folding Bikes

Eco designer and co-founder of Red or Dead, Wayne Hemingway shares some of this thoughts on sustainable design and right towards the end of the film, mentions their new range of fold-able bikes; designed especially for property developers.

Is it possible that next year we could be saying good bye to the craze on fixed wheel and European heritage bikes and hello to the more practical foldy? The latest front cover story of Bike Biz seems to think so, listing over a dozen of the market must haves.

I see a possible trend developing in this area and certainly Hemingway (with his finger on the pules) may have preempted it. If you’re living in a city like London or Paris and you haven’t quite got the space to swing a cat or a bike, a good solid folding bike may provide solutions.
