    This is cool. Not in production yet, but a $9 cardboard bike that holds 485 lbs. $5 for a kids version!! Amazing possibilities.

    Can IKEA be far behind?

    Here’s a Reuters article about the cardboard bike:

    Looks like there are still some steps to be taken before everything gets moving. It could be interesting but the plans might change, in terms of pricing and giving away bikes in poor areas. Can they find advertisers? Can they get sufficient government funding? And so on. I hope it works out.
