Everybody is entitled to have a little fun and exercise with a bike; even a Mercedes-Benz CLK Cabriolet owner. Problem is, when you own a sports coupe, or a cabriolet, there’s not enough space in the trunk to fit a full size bike. Having that in mind, Mercedes-Benz collaborated with German cycle manufacturer ADP to create a folding bike that can be stored even in the CLK. -Continued after the jump
According to the German luxury car maker, the bike can be folded in stages: first the front and rear wheels fold together via a quick-release fastener on the seat dome then via a second quick-release fastener above the front wheel which allows the handlebars to be pivoted downwards, further reducing the bike’s folded dimensions. Fully folded, the bike measures just 800 x 800 x 280 mm – 31.5’’ x 31.5’’ x 11.0’’, which means that it fits comfortably in, for example, the boot of an open-top CLK Cabriolet and takes up a minimal amount of space in the garage. The Mercedes-Benz Folding Bike will be launched in April 2008 and will be available from Mercedes-Benz
