Ugliest bike design ever.

#1 Unread post by Grey Thumper »

With some bike designs, you can't wait for it to be put in production. With others, you hope they never do.

Nonobject is purely speculative design fiction.

Nothing like this exists, even as a mockup or prototype. There is zero intention of ever producing it or anything similar to it.

It's just design student masturbation.

And it doesn't look like you could lean it a lot either. At least it looks like a giant sail.

I wonder if the kids who designed this monstrosity have ever actually ridden a motorcycle?

As a thing, it looks great, IMO. As a motorbike, well, perhaps not...
