British Lad Invents a Cardboard Bicycle

Phil Bridge, a 21 year old Product Design student at Sheffield Hallam University, came up with the design, noting that a bicycle is stolen every 71 seconds in the UK, and wondered if anyone would be interested in running off with a cardboard bike.

Using Hexacomb board, he’s fashioned a vehicle that will never make it to the Tour de France, but figures it would last for about six months of constant use.  And yes, it’s waterproof, and would cost somewhere around $50.
