Designed by Jun-Tae Park and Sanghyun Jeong, the 'Full Circle' cycle is like no two-wheeler you've ever pedaled. As an entry for the Seoul Cycle Design Competition, this bug-eyed bike is difficult to decipher, given its absence of what are usually standard bicycle parts.
The 'Full Circle' cycle has pedals that pop right out of the wheels, equipped with a free gear-changer within. Simple in form and even simpler in storage, this iconic-looking bicycle will streamline your commute.
