The packaging material of the bicycle can be recycled as a backpack. In fact the designer came up with this bicycle as he was disappointed with the current folding bicycles, where in order to reduce the weight, the dimensions were also reduced. This resulted in smaller bicycle designs and lack of stability. Due to their small frame and wheel sizes they are very uncomfortable to ride in the rough terrains. Hence, after designing dozens of new prototypes, he came up with his new design that uses a full sized frames as well as full sized wheels. Still, it can be miniaturized to the size of an Umbrella.
