The CIB city bike concept is a folding bicycle that uses a 'jack-knife' type of folding technique for quick and easy storage.
Designed by Yong Min Seo, the CIB folding bike allows riders to simply press down on the seat and pull the bicycle frame upwards to make it highly portable and incredibly compact.
