You can probably think of several applications for the T-Bike Tripod Bike, but anyone eager to try it out had better be a skilled cyclist. This peculiar hybrid of a pushbike and a camera mount can put your precious SLR in a precarious position at speed.
An imaginative concept by Reza Rachmat Sumirat, this unique bicycle doesn't just have a tripod incorporated into the handlebars, but its very frame was inspired by the adaptability of the piece of photography equipment. The top tube, the down tube and the head tube can all be adjusted to form elongated segments by the same means that a camera stand's legs extend and retract. The T-Bike Tripod Bike thus offers its rider a fully customizable form -- plus the ability to snap stills or videos of him in action or the road ahead.
