This future Bike will pay you back for all of that pedalling…

This amazing bike concept will even help to pay your fare while providing a seat for the bus ride home. It is part exercise machine, part electric scooter. Designed by Marten Wallgren, David Seesing, Il Choi and Miika Hekkinen, it’s the centerpiece of a car free concept for central London called London Garden, and winner of the Seymour Powell award in a contest called Future City Mobility.

Inside the hubless wheels, the bike has solar panels which along with your pedaling power charge a battery that can drive the bike as an electric scooter. The really cool part, is that the designers also envision electric buses with docks for the folded bikes, that will tap your charged battery to help run the bus in exchange for bus fare.

With tree like bus shelters where the bikes can be stored up in the air, the concept goes further, and where the blowing breeze moving the stored bikes around will also generate electricity. This all sounds a bit utopian, and doesn’t really take into account people who aren’t able to ride bikes, but ‘m sure some parts of the design have real world potential.
