Too broke to drive to work, but no place to park your bike? No problem! The new Zoomla is a folding bicycle that comes with a built-in backpack.
The ingenious single-pivot design folds up in just two seconds and can be stored in a locker. The Zoomla is propelled by levers called a Pedaldeck, which uses a compact, internal drive system instead of the conventional crank and pedals. That means no more greasy chains to deal with.
A cleverly integrated handle on the handlebar allows the Zoomla to be rolled like a dollie when it?s time to go inside or pack it away. The Zoomla weights in at 11 pounds, making ti easy to take it on short trips around town.
The Zoomla is not available for sale yet, but you can check out more designs at Eric Stoddard’s Speed Studio Design.

Now that I look at it again, it reminds me of the A-Bike. Cool bike!
