For the absolute Apple enthusiast, this bike concept is a heavenly playground. Jake Foley presents a state-of-the-art bicycle design that integrates cutting-edge technology with Apple-oriented solutions.
The innovative concept features magnetic wheels that make use of kinetic energy to easily propel the bike and create electric charge; the bicycle thus requires no chains, but rather hydraulic fluids to produce the driving force.
Incorporated into this high-tech design is a stand to secure and possibly charge your beloved Apple media players, an iPod Click Wheel that scrolls through your favorite music and a retractable laptop case for your precious MacBook.
In sync with the playful yet stylish Apple design, the concept is built on a white sporty frame, which also includes a visible futuristic blue light around the laptop case, adding to the safety of its user.
Eco-minded and ultra-modern, the Apple Bicycle offers a glimpse into how young urban commuters are visualizing their daily transits, with a flavor of brand loyalty.
