The striking Tong City Bike design by Niklas Galler and nr21 is simply beautiful. The motivation behind the design was the increasing traffic problem in modern Chinese cities, as an individual transportation device would have to compete with cars and scooters.
The unique and stylish Tong Lightframe ensures the driver's visiblity during the night traffic. Convenience is also reflected in the low maintenance all-in-one housing for the brake system, drivetrain, shock absorbers and gears which require low maintenance.
The integrated light tubes can be customized to any color you like, transforming the bike into a fashion accessory you that can coordinate with your outfit.
