Most folding bikes are not as compact as this bike when folded, the Contortionist folds completely into the space of the wheels 26in circumference, and leaves a nice little pull handle for you to drag the bike around. The bike didn´t go into production, but, elements of innovation within the design are now being developed into production bikes with an undisclosed manufacturer. Watch the video
