Yike Bike

I think the Yike Bike is cool. It looks small - when folded - enough to fit into the back of a Smart car.

The price for the first YikeBikes will be £2,995 pounds in the UK and €3,495 Euros in Europe. This price includes shipping, duties, tax and a one year warranty.

I agree this is really neat. a little pricey and not in the USA yet

The rider limit is 100 kg; 220 pounds. It leaves me off it; at least for quite a while.

Hmm.... $4,000 for a Yike Bike..... or far less for a bike rack and a more comfortable bike to ride..... tough call. :P

That's the ONLY thing about the bike that's NOT small.
