Ville, the shopping cart bicycle
I know that there are a lot of countries where the bicycle is a primary form of transportation and not the car. I would imagine that daily trips to the grocery store are needed just to get supplies, and it would be handy to have a bike such as this.
This is the transforming Ville, a bike that can fold in half in order to become a shopping cart. It may not be a cart that can hold a week’s worth of groceries, but if you just need to get enough to fill two baskets, this is probably your deal.
Not only that, you have a bike with two baskets that enable you to bring home quite a bit. As someone who once used a bike as his primary form of transportation, it does help to have that basket on the bike, even if it does look a little dorky.
I also know the perils of having to chain up your bike, only to have some jerk beat up the front tire so it is bent out of shape. It would be nice to just take the bike in the store and use it as something to hold all the items I am intending to buy.
Yep, it really just makes sense to build a bicycle like this. Unfortunately, it is just a concept at this particular moment.

What a creative and efficient transport device. Just make sure you don’t pass by muddy roads so you can fold the bike neatly and groceries store won’t ban you inside their shops. I hope you’ll make these bikes available in the Asian countries as well.

Ville, the shopping cart bicycle is just what I need to shorten my shopping time. By the way it looks, Ville could fit into my car trunk.

This is a great invention, and it’s not really that dorky-looking – it’s actually neat. It’s a shame it’s still not sold for public use though. I hope they can mass produce this as soon as possible.

That’s quite amazing, at first I thought it was just a fold-able bike.
This is perfect for someone living downtown who doesn’t have a car but still needs to go a few blocks to pick up some groceries.
