Compact and light Halfbike

The foldable Halfbike II is both compact and light, can be ridden like a traditional bicycle using pedals.

Halfbike II is a vehicle that trains your balance and reflexes in a completely new way, allows you to focus solely on your body and the ride itself.

You can take it practically everywhere with you and since it’s foldable, you’d be allowed to take it on board most public transit systems.

When folded, it fits easily in the trunk of even a small car, under your desk at work or in an overcrowded closet. You can put it inside a lift and even easily carry it when you need to take the stairs, for it is under 18 pounds and quite small. Basically a Halfbike would fit into most spaces too small for a regular bike.

Riding a Halfbike gives you a different perspective to the city. You can use it for commuting, exercise or recreation. Regardless of how or where you’re going to ride it, the experience is what really counts. The Halfbike will not simply transport you from A to B. It will distract you for a moment from all your day to day worries allowing you to focus solely on your body and the ride itself. A kind of an urban teleport, if you like, that disconnects you for an instant from whatever is on your mind.
