The Rotation Bicycle By Yirong Yang Blows People Away At International Bicycle Design Challenge

Anyone who reads my posts will know my fascination with conceptual designs and here is another that has blown my mind away. The “Rotation” bike designed by Yirong Yang is a revolutionary design we hope makes it to reality.

The “Rotation” was designed for the International Bicycle Design Challenge and Yirong Yang’s entry was definitely worth the research.

This concept “rotation” bike is a city bike that rotates and folds as it was designed to do. Due to its collapsibility and unique folding design, you can ensure the bike is the shape you want it to be in when you choose to ride. Folding it along its axis will allow you to change it from unicycle to bicycle; depending on your adrenalin requirements for the day that is. I don’t think I’d necessarily be ‘unicycling’ around the block anytime soon!

I think what I admire the most about this concept design is the fact that you can simply fold this bike up and carry it around (I’m thinking driving downhill and carrying it uphill. Not that I’m lazy but sitting in front of a pc has left me somewhat unfit).

All in all, this entry into the International Bicycle Design Challenge cleverly combines 2 designs into one, while still making it user friendly as well as functionally straightforward to fit into our busy lives. I’ll be carrying my bike to my office rather than chaining it against a pole in future!
