Folding Bike - Participating in the International Bicycle Design Competition 2005
Concept for an innovative folding bike. The frame consists of 4 identical parts manufactured by rotation transfer molding (RTM) with flax fibers, hence the name Flaxible. By pulling up the saddle the bicycle folds in.
This concept was further developed for HEMA. Unfortunately the development showed that it was not possible to create a folding mechanism that would be simple enough.
