Bike owners around the world, the Graham Hill 'ThinBike' has been conceived just for you. As a fellow cyclist, I love my ratty ol' bike so much that I keep it safe and sound in the sanctuary that is my humble home. Yet it takes up a lot of unnecessary space.
The Graham Hill 'ThinBike' solves this jutting predicament. The handlebar and pedals cleverly fold flat to rest neatly against a wall. However, convenience doesn't come cheap, as the full-sized, single-speed bike costs $1,800.
