RubyBike - the practical, stylish and adaptable everyday bicycle
RubyBike is my take on a new, flexible and intelligent type of everyday bicycle. Among other things, the RubyBike stands out by having an integrated mounting system that makes it quick and easy to mount different kinds of equipment, along with the ability to easily be converted to an electric bicycle. In this way, the RubyBike can be adapted to the individual cyclist many - and often changing - practical and transportation needs.
Moreover, the RubyBike has a display built into the handlebar stem, as well as an incorporated smartphone-integration. These features - combined with a compact frame and wheelset design, along with foldable handlebars and pedals - makes the RubyBike a intelligent, dexterous and future ready everyday bicycle.

RubyBike - den praktiske, stilfulde og tilpasningsvenlige hverdagscykel
RubyBike er mit bud på en ny, fleksibel og intelligent type hverdagscykel. Cyklen udmærker sig blandt andet ved dens modulbaserede udstyrs-system der gør det nemt og hurtigt at montere forskelligt udstyr, og at den let kan konverteres til en el-cykel. Således kan cyklen tilpasses den enkelte cyklists mange - og ofte skiftende - praktiske og transportmæssige behov.
Endvidere har RubyBike et display indbygget i styret, samt inkorporeret smartphone-integration. Disse egenskaber - i kombination med et kompakt steldesign og hjulsæt, samt foldbart styr og pedalsæt - gør RubyBike til en intelligent, behændig og fremtidsklar hverdagscykel.
