Bicymple has come up with a design that looks like the simplest bike design ever. One look at Bicymple makes you feel that it's just popped out of a 2D design but it's still a real bike and we've a video as a proof. The bike design, we believe has stagnated for a long time as other vehicle technologies got popular. The Bicymple takes a different, simplistic approach towards it while keeping the style, functionality and excitement.

Bicymple has removed most of the complicate moving parts out of the bike. The rear wheel is powered by a direct drive and a freewheeling hub joins the front and rear wheel axis. The approach shortens the wheelbase and minimizes the overall design. The designers of the project are now considering large scale production of the bike. As promised, here's a video of bicymple in action -
