Buckle up ladies and gentlemen because this [bike design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/electric-bicycle-designs) will blow you away. Marten Wallgreen’s bicycle design (unnamed) has three major features that contribute to its high standing (in my eyes).

First off, it’s a bike. You can ride it wherever you go. Due to the pedaling that you’re engaged it, the bike is charged to later work as an [electrical scooter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/scooter-platform) (you know, incase you get tired.) Also, the bicycle design does not release harmful emission, so you’re helping preserve the environment. Lastly, there is a second idea of a bus made to store the bikes as another travel method.

The bus will act as a charging dock so when the time comes (to get off the bus), you have more options.
