2. When it is folded, its appearance is very elegant. So, it can be used as a shopping cart. And the user does not need to worry that it may be parking and stolen.
3. It is very structurally stable and its frame parts can be used for many other purposes. Its production costs are very low and it is very simple and lightweight.
4. It is possible to produce it with the same geometry of the existing diamond-type frame bike.
5. It has a function of shock absorption.
6. It can easily convert it into an ultra light motor-operated bike if insert the motor inside the seat tube and the battery pack inside both sliding bars.
