There have been numerous attempts to create an all-plastic bike. However, most have never made it past the prototype stage. Igus, a Germany-based manufacturer of high-performance plastics, and Dutch start-up MTRL aim to change that with the igus:bike — the world's first urban bike crafted almost entirely from recycled polymer.

legendglider약 3년that bike would be weak. I got a BMX from mongoose. Talk about helping the earth, man!
adroit_avimimus3년 이하I mean, it's just for casual rides throughout the day, not actual extreme activities and such. And nice
drago0627약 3년why it cost so much?? the plastic they use to make it probably cost less than ht ebike
greengirrafe2143년 이하At least you're re-using the plastic!- adroit_avimimus3년 이하I guess the time and effort to manipulate the plastic to be what they want it to be is already a high price for it.
readinglog_love약 3년This is a great way to reuse!- adroit_avimimus3년 이하Agreed!
summer_beach약 3년That's really cool!!!
caitisconer약 3년Wow!!! This is awesome!!! I want to buy this so bad!!!
dream_beyond약 3년That's a first, I never would have thought of that!
jolie0402dogo약 3년If only it wasn't so expensive, people would probably be rushing to buy the igus:bike!
iheartpuppies약 3년This is awsome! While I know cleaning out all the plastic on earth is hard, this is a great way to start doing it! I hope this goes far- iheartpuppies약 3년This is perfect!! We can finally fix the trash in ocean problem!! Now we need to solve all the other problems people made!! HEY PEOPLE! MABE CUT BACK ON THE PROBLEM MAKEING FOR A BIT???
- adroit_avimimus약 3년This is fantastic! The igus:bike will help with the world's plastic pollution problems a lot! I can't believe a single adult bike gives new life to about 35 pounds of plastic that would otherwise clog landfills or waterways! Did you know that a plastic cup can take 50 - 80 years to decompose? And an estimated 13 billion plastic bottles are disposed of each year? Or that plastic bags and other plastic garbage thrown into the ocean kill as many as 1 million sea creatures every year? I believe this revolutionary advancement in our effort to reduce plastic waste will most definitely help both us and wildlife!
- iheartpuppies약 3년I totally agree! But I think we also need to cut back on the plastic in the first place.
- adroit_avimimus약 3년I think the same way!
unknown_user14약 3년Agreed! And nice facts!
