Yes, I guess I am on a folding bike kick this week. I believe this got posted on Twitter, but is worth posting again. A Royal College of Art student has created what may be the most fold-able bicycle on the planet. Dubbed "The Contortionist", this model can fold to fit entirely into the circumference of its 26-inch (i.e. full-sized) wheels. And, when folded, it can be rolled around like a piece of rolling luggage. If we ever wanted a bicycle that would be practical to take everywhere, this is likely it. The cost for a mass-produced model would allegedly about 400 British Pounds, which is equivalent to about $700 in the USA.
