For the hardcore party animal, designer Yuhan Zhang created the Marshall Dicycle. The futuristic party bike lets you bring the action around with you wherever you go. Supported by wheels double the size of the motorcycle's body, the sleek bike is both powerful and convenient.
Two giant tech-packed wheels carry you around while serving another purpose. The Dicycle's wheels double as Marshall amps so that you can blast your music. In addition, the Dicycle also has built-in lights to provide amazing ambiance. With floor-shaking speakers and a light show, everything you need for a party can be driven around in style.
The Marshall Dicycle is a concept design created by Zhang for the Umeå Institute of Design
