Zyphr | Station to office urban transport

Carbon steel frame with 250 kg load capacity, inspired by mountain bike frames and racing karts, gets paired with E-bike components and ASA/PC vacuum formed panels for protection from the elements.

Zyphr aims to eradicate that last mile problem for employees of companies involved in the Zyphr scheme. They can book their station to office trip via the app.

Inclusive design | Working with real users to solve real problems

The video was put together to show our entire design process with Josh, explaining how we came to our final solution.

Thank you
