Cardboard Bicycle for 30 Bucks!

If you ride in the rain, we don’t recommend the DIY Cardboard bicycle that costs $30 to make but if you do live in a hot country, this cardboard bicycle might save you some dollars and help re-use some of that leftover cardboard.

Phil Bridge, 21, of Stockport, Greater Manchester, believes his “ultimate green machine” will be cheap enough to attract occasional users while also deterring thieves.

The frame, made out of cardboard normally used in industrial packaging, could be produced for as little as £3.

Once the wheels and chain had been added the total price might rise to only £15.
