Trike Meets Tote

Just like the name suggests, the TAKEME trike aims to tag along with its user everywhere they go. Designed with the elderly in mind, it features a thoughtfully designed folding system that allows it to transition between riding, carrying, and storing modes in mere seconds. Functioning as both an e-tricycle and cart, the different modes accommodate a variety of activities including last-mile commuting, shopping, and more. In addition to having a triple-wheel design that provides enhanced stability and safety, its automated folding system creates a seamless rider/transporter experience that elderly users will appreciate.

TAKEME is a winner of the 2018 Red Dot Design Concept Award.

Designers: Kinson Chan, Ronsben Huen & Rice Mak

A Lean, Mean Commuting Machine

Who knew a little bike thing could look so… well… MEAN! Even though it looks like it’s about to break the sound barrier, the AK-1 is an automatic folding electric bike designed for the last mile. Actually, 22 miles on a single charge to be exact. Inspired by triangles, it features a sharp edge on just about every corner. With a top speed of 20 miles an hour, riders will appreciate every inch of aerodynamics.

What’s more interesting however, is a unique one-key-to-fold system that automatically breaks down the bike when the user is finished riding it. Simply insert the key and dual actuators will instantly fold and unfold the bike so you can concentrate on your commute.
