The Oregon Manifest Challenge Re-imagines The Urban Bicycle

The Oregon Manifest Challenge Re-imagines The Urban BicycleThe Ideo x Rock Lobster "Faraday," Ziba x Signal "Freemont," and FuseProject x SyCip's 3 wheeled drifter

This month the Oregon Manifest Constructor's Design Challenge introduced three collaborations: IDEO x Rock Lobster, FuseProject x SyCip, and Ziba Design x Signal Cycles. Each was presented with the same challenge: to produce an urban bicycle that would serve a need that regular bikes do not fulfill, a "utility bike." What they've put together is three unique bikes, each serving some purpose that brings the bicycle closer to replacing the automobile in our daily lives. Just don't expect to actually be riding any of these soon, as they're just concept rides for the time being.
