Though the bike costs a whopping 5500 pounds plus shipping, Eric Staller, its inventor from Amsterdam believes it will be a success as it is the world's most sociable mode of transport.

"People need this bike. I think people are ready to get out of their cars and off their sofas and get silly. It lowers inhibitions and after a few minutes even complete strangers begin talking to each other. People have even fallen in love on these bikes. And you move along on your own energy - renewable energy," the Daily Mail quoted Staller as saying.
