Interesting modern take on the Dutch city bike design.

No word on whether this will ever be a product for sale.

The Drive Side is Within
I agree w/the reviewer-- I dig the design, but would rather see a more classic geometry.

Oh great... the next random computer sketch to be dubbed "big news" across every cycling messageboard and list.
Come back when it's rideable.

very strange drivetrain design- the chain looks to have a front jockey built into the housing to get the return to run down such a narrow track. Seems overly complicated to me, but hopefully that's just more concept bs that will get axed if it comes to market.
