Cyclists who are interested in seeing the future of bicycles need to check out this Azor Bicycle. The Azor Bicycle was designed by Konstantin Datz as an ultra-stylish and [portable bike](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bromptons-g-line) for the future.

[Folding bicycle concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/threefold-bicycles) are a dime a dozen these days, but luckily for the Azor Bicycle, it has a [razor-thin frame](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rcyl-bike) and sexy styling that help it stand out amongst all the other concept bikes out there.

**Implications** - This is the kind of product that if/when seen through fruition, will become incredibly popular with cyclists and eco-conscious consumers. It's convenient, environmentally friendly, and razor thin portable, what more could you want from a bicycle? I can't think of anything.
