The Delightful Metaphys Movos Bicycle is Refreshing on the Eyes

— June 28, 2011 — Art & Design
Japanese designer Chiaki Murata has come up with a creamy bike dubbed the Metaphys Movos Bicycle.

On top of that, the seats are fabricated with a soft material and the tires are designed for pavements with excellent grip performance for a more enjoyable riding experience. It's also fairly compact and you can fold in the handles so storage becomes truly convenient.

The Metaphys Movos Bicycle hits all the essentials of an ideal bike and would be perfect for the avid cyclist.
