The Pininfarina Fuoriserie is custom-made, limited-edition bicycle made by the same company that designs exotic Ferraris.
The Italian design company introduced the sleek, tailor-made bike at the Seoul Living Design Fair. The bike features a retro design inspired by the brand's other vintage styles; for example, the Carrozzeria Pinin Farina. In the Fuoriserie, the vintage aesthetic is referenced in the leather handlebars and seat, as well as the chrome frame clad in walnut briarroot.
The bike boasts contemporary features, such as a Bike+ booster system that helps the cyclist conserve their energy throughout their ride. The small-scale engine promotes endurance, allowing the user to complete longer distances with ease. The high performance bike also includes an LED lighting system and plug to recharge your mobile.
