Single Bike, Double Frame

btwin_bike_1

The BTwin looks like just any bike from the side. However, if you take a better look, you see the frame split in two near the rear wheel, and again, right before the handlebar. Why, you ask? Why not, I say! The bike aims at being a dashing commuter bike. The split frame on the front accommodates for a laptop/tablet case, that can snugly fit in the gap between the frame. The case is also designed to be easily pulled out and carried to work when you’re in a rush. I would have personally liked to see more of this bike, I’m sure you would too, but on the aesthetic front, the BTwin already has my attention!

Designer: Xavier Lescourret
