New Foldable Form of Urban Transport

The key advantages of the mini-farthing design are:

It is super-small and light so it can go everywhere in a city. The light weight means it is easy to carry up/down stairs, in the store or as part of a commute. The small folded size means it is easy to tuck away on a train or bus, in a car, in an elevator, in a closet, under a desk etc.

There is no parking hassle meaning it is faster to get from point to point. And because you can just take it with you, there is less risk of theft.

The mechanics are enclosed so it is both low maintenance andclothes don’t get damaged (particularly when carrying).

It is a stable platform with emphasis on safety. The shorter wheel-base makes it very manoeuvrable, the front wheel is a decent size for bumps and curbs, the upright riding position makes it easier to see and be seen in traffic and handle-bars are no longer a hazard in an accident.

All of these features mean that a mini-farthing can often be the most convenient and fastest way to move around congested cities – particularly when combined with public transport.
