If you think that regular bicycles are too boring and bland, then you need to check out Sungkuk Park's 'Bone Bicycle'. This two-wheeler was designed entirely with the skeletal system in mind.
The thing that impresses me most about Sungkuk Park's 'Bone Bicycle' is that it remains utilitarian without going over the top. Sungkuk Park's design looks like a normal bike until you get closer and realize that the frame looks like it was built from human bones. It may appear a little macabre, but I'd definitely still take the 'Bone Bicycle' for a ride around the block.
