If you think that [regular bicycles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bicycle-store) are too boring and bland, then you need to check out Sungkuk Park's 'Bone Bicycle'. This two-wheeler was designed entirely with the [skeletal system](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/buffalo-skeleton-hard-disk) in mind.

The thing that impresses me most about Sungkuk Park's 'Bone Bicycle' is that it remains utilitarian without going over the top. Sungkuk Park's design looks like a normal bike until you get closer and realize that the [frame](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/draken-bicycle-stand) looks like it was built from human bones. It may appear a little macabre, but I'd definitely still take the 'Bone Bicycle' for a ride around the block.
