Lancia Urban Bike
The Lancia Urban Bike is a concept bicycle created by Italian automaker Lancia in collaboration with MomoDesign.[1] Its manufacturers claim that the bicycle has been designed to account for riding performance and comfort while being minimal in weight.[1] The bike has been described as rustproof, due to its parts being made from carbon fiber, aluminum and magnesium.[1] Its frame is designed to absorb bumps, which abates the need for a suspension system.[1]
