First Glimpse: The Puma Bike by Josh Rubin
Puma, Vexed and Biomega teamed up to create this highly functional, yet totally minimal bike. I had the chance to try it out last week and was pleasantly surprised. I was expecting the looks would exceed the comfort and function. As it turns out, they're evenly matched. This team has managed to create an urban apartment friendly, folding bike that rides like it has a regular single piece frame. With one gear, oversized tires and upright handlebars, it's perfect for conquering city streets.
The Puma Bike will be produced in limited quantities, is available in black or silver and should be available in May 2005. It will only be available at Puma stores and will retail for $775.

Puma x Vexed, Season Three
The latest item from the ongoing Puma and Vexed Generation collaboration is this urban cycler hoodie. More functional than the Anticon Hoodie, but aesthetically similar, this one has a built in face mask with removable filters. The jacket also features reflective piping and special flaps to keep your backside dry while riding in the rain. Related Posts: Puma + Vexed: Urban Mobility, First Glimpse:...

Shift Bicycle
Shift Bicycle was designed by Scott Shim, Ryan Lightbody and Matt Grossman, and it won them top honors in a bicycle design competition held by the Taiwanese Government. The technology is simple, the back paired wheels come together by an articulated hub when the bike is in motion--but when it's still they spread apart for stability. via Engadget...

Paco Cube Prefab Vacation House

Strida MAS Special Folding Bike
Before I settled on my track bike, I gave serious consideration to a Strida folding bike. I was living in a tiny one bedroom and the Strida met the stowage criteria handily. Now a decade into production, Strida continues to impress with generational improvements, most notably an innovative new drive system. At this year's Interbike Expo in Las Vegas, which runs 24-26 September, Areaware...

Five Better Bike Racks
The bike rack is one of those urban features woefully in need of a redesign. Thanks to NYC DOT and Cooper-Hewitt, who joined forces in creating the City Racks Design Competition, New York just might continue to lead the way in making cities more bike-friendly. As many people have noticed, the city has been making great advances on behalf of the cyclist, adding miles...
