As if exercise bikes weren’t already hard enough to fit into apartments.

It combines a pretty standard-looking exercise bike with a decidedly non-standard array of three 55-inch curved OLEDscreens stacked on top of one another in a vertical formation. In practice, it would mean any images put in front of you while you ride would extend from around foot-level to all the way above your head, just parallel to the ceiling.
