In addition to changing and 'pumping' inner tubes, the most we have to do with the bike is the chain. They rust, crack, peel, and require a lot of maintenance, not to mention we often get our pants dirty with it. If only they weren't there! Your wishes were heard by Sean Chan, who created the Chainless bike.

Good luck on the crowdfunding platform Kickstarter now tried another bike Chainless Sean Chan. He claims that the bike nevertheless retained everything the practicality of a classic bike.

'Dwarf' is according to the assurances of the author comfortable, versatile, agile, easy to maintain, light, extremely mobile and quick to fold. It can be folded in half in just 15 seconds, and thanks to its small dimensions, it can be easily stored in the trunk. In contrast to classic bikes, it has pedals and crank right on the rear wheel. Because of this, it can miss quite a few hitherto indispensable bicycle components, such as triangular frame and chains.
Instead of gears, it has a series tungsten gears, which do not rust and do not require maintenance. It will be available with 20-, 24- and 26-inch magnesium alloy wheels. It is also unique because of the independent rear wheel, which allows completely new cycling maneuvers. You can pre-order the bike for a fee 750 euros.
