Strange Mobility: The Halfbike Pro, a Compact Bicycle with No Seat

A Bulgarian architect designed the Halfbike Pro, a compact, seatless bicycle that folds in half, after facing storage issues with his road bike. The bike has evolved through four iterations since its initial Kickstarter success over a decade ago and is now made of aluminum. It offers a unique riding experience described as feeling like "running on air" and promotes deeper breathing and improved circulation. The Halfbike Pro is priced at $1,300.
