The ease that folding bikes present to the owner have started a race among industrial designers as to who can develop a bike that is the simplest and the fastest to fold and that too, in the smallest possible package. Recently a bicycle designer came up with a bike that folds down into its own wheel, Industrial designer Victor Aleman is out there with a new concept dubbed Eco // 07 which has folding wheels.
The bike carries a reinvented wheel system that is composed of six modules, each of which has a double pivot in the joints. These pivots allow the user to fold each wheel into six different parts to become smaller. The frame on the other hand is a double triangle structure that is composed of expandable modules, each of which collapses into a smaller dimension.
