Designed by Zoltan Kecskemeti, the Danube Bicycle is a kinetic sculpture that is proposed for installation in the Danube River in Budapest, Hungary.
The bicycle aims to draw attention to the environmentally friendly energy resources, made possible by man and water, while also highlighting cycling as a carbon-neutral means of moving around the city.
The flow of the river moves the wheels of the bicycle which, in turn, move the legs of the rider.
