# Bisected Motorbikes Eco-Friendly Halbo is Half the Size & Twice the Excitement By Andrew Robichaud | Published 2009-07-02 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/halbo References: [yankodesign](http://www.yankodesign.com/2009/07/02/super-green-super-dangerous-super-bike/) & [coroflot](http://www.coroflot.com/public/individual_details.asp?individual_id=126959) As gas digits become smaller, apparently so too do the size of the vehicles. The Halbo [motorcycle concept](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cfmoto-papioss-mini) designed by Pierre Yohanes Lubis for [BMW](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/concept-ce-02) is actually the size of half of a real motorcycle. The 2-wheeled tinker toy has a stationary front wheel and a left-to-right [swiveling back wheel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/motoroid-bike). The target audience for the vehicle is supposed to be “vibrant eco-minded young individuals.” It looks awesome but also very dangerous. I don’t know if it makes you look like more of a man or more of a wuss. It still manages to move pretty well for what it is. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.8/10 - Popularity: 86% | Activity: 80% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Eco-friendly Transportation:** Developing smaller, eco-friendly vehicles like the Halbo motorcycle concept presents an opportunity for disruptive innovation in the transportation industry. - **Compact Vehicles:** The trend towards smaller, bisected vehicles like the Halbo motorcycle creates an opportunity for further innovation in the production of compact vehicles. - **Alternative Commuting:** Concepts like the Halbo motorcycle can inspire the trend towards alternative commuting methods, presenting opportunities for innovation in the urban transportation industry. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Automotive:** The development of eco-friendly and compact vehicles presents opportunities for innovation within the automotive industry. - **Motorcycles:** The Halbo motorcycle concept highlights the trend towards smaller, bisected motorcycles and presents opportunities for innovation in the motorcycle industry. - **Urban Transportation:** Concepts like the Halbo motorcycle present opportunities for innovation in the urban transportation industry, particularly in the development of alternative commuting methods. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Four-Wheeled Hybrid Bike Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/karver-cyle-concept-k1.md) - [Research-Centric Hydrogen Motorcycles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hydrogen-motorcycle.md) - [Shapeshifting Superbike Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hypercycle.md) - [Dapper Dual-Tone Superbike Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bmw-motorrad-ch4-superbike.md) - [Hydrogen-Powered Concept Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hydra-bike.md) - [Electric Cafe Racer Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hyundai-ioniq-q.md) - [Compact Hybrid Engine Motorcycles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/benda-p51.md) - [Motor-Powered Diwheels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/diy-diwheel.md) - [Ultra-Modern Moped Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moppe-apparatus-tdmp1.md)
