Ville Shopping Cart Bike Transforms For Groceries

The only thing lacking is the bike's Transformers name.

It's no looker, but the Ville Shopping Cart Bike does double duty. Outdoors it's a two-wheeler for pedal junkies. For the neighborhood supermarket however, the Ville transforms into a light shopping cart for groceries.

Most notable is the Ville's ability to retain stability in cart mode. The bike folds into itself, staggering both wheels to keep the whole contraption balanced. The bracing frame in the middle folds up to become the push handle, while the front and rear baskets turn into an up-and-down container array.

Now if only designer Hyuk-Jae Chang can cram in an electric engine and battery somewhere...
