The Hummingbird Bicycle

The Hummingbird Bike has made its statement in the world of design as the lightest foldable bicycle in the world. Weighing in at 6.4 kg (more or less the weight of one watermelon), the bicycle’s frame is made of carbon fibre – the main reason for its light weight, and smooth ride (the material absorbs vibrations too!). Designed and built in London by Peter Craciun, the Hummingbird is perfect for on-the-go urban commuters. The bike is easy to fold and stow too – with one swift motion, the rider can quickly tuck away the back tire beneath the bicycle frame and bend the handlebars inwards. Its collapsibility makes for convenient transportation, from automobiles to airplanes. It’s sleek shape and intricate components are obtained using the latest technologies in 3D printing and CAM (Computer Aided Manufacturing) machinery. It’s available in yellow, red, black, and plain carbon fibre, with two different wheel sizes to choose from. Check out the Hummingbird Bike on Kickstarter here!
