It's a common sight to see several bicycles piled up on a single post given the limited number of spaces to park a bike in urban areas, so the Onnee Minibike pod has been developed to help change this and encourage even more riders to cycle in their city.
The pod works by taking up a single parking spot on a city street, but provides 10 parking spots for bikes to maximize the efficiency of as much area as possible on tight streets. This would do double-duty by providing existing cyclists with a place to put their bike between rides, but also working to encourage more people to cycle by ensuring they have a spot to store their ride.
The Onnee Minibike pod is being brought to New York City, which will see two of the units positioned in the streets thanks to a VOI sponsorship.
