Moosshiqk, a creation of the Indian designer Shantosh, is the world’s smallest electric bike. Its name is derived from the Sanskrit word Mooshiqk, which means 'mouse,' and it's a fitting one--this electric bike is just 12” in height and 18” in length. The Moosshiqk bike is powered by a battery and has a top speed of 15 kilometers per hour.

The Moosshiqk bike is flexible and can be [assembled and disassembled](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tq-hpr40) in less than one minute. Another fun feature of Moosshiqk is that it can be ridden backwards!
