I saw this bike folded up today while at the market. It is made of a prototype transparent aluminum and extremely light. The wheels at not 20" but then again, its a prototype bike. Check it out:

Well it doesn't need to fold, does it...? You just leave it where you stop riding and collect it afterwards. If you remember where you put it.

As for flights, no need to pack it either. Just leave it in the aircraft aisle.

People might trip over it though. Its a lawsuit magnet...I don't want it.

I've got a whole bike made of that, brakes, wheels, tyres and all. I'm selling it. It's yours for $200. Email me for the paypal address. It is pictured below up against a white sheet. Postage won't cost much because it's ultra-light too.

I believe the Emperor has some new cycling-specific clothes to wear with that!

That's a pretty tight rear cluster.

Hope you ride the flats.
