Transformers: The electric-powered Uno III Streetbike - or U3 - can convert itself with the push of a button from a conventional motorbike to unicycle-style machineDispatch riders and couriers know the fastest way to weave through heavy traffic is on a motorbike.
But for those jams even two wheels can't navigate, a new solution has been developed.
Just like a Transformer, the Uno III Streetbike - or U3 - can convert itself with the push of a button from a conventional motorbike to unicycle-style machine.
Robots in disguise: The Tron style motorcycle leathers are optionalThe electric-powered machine balances on two parallel rear wheels, the front retracting between them to allow it to manoeuvre through spaces so tight it can be driven into a building - and even fit in the lift.
Then, when it's time to zoom off into the sunset, the front wheel slides forward as the rear pair move back, giving the vehicle the stability to pick up speeds of up to 30mph.
It can travel between 30 to 35 miles on a single three to four hour charge.
Through the evil eye: This diagram shows the mechanism which allows the U3's transformationNow the remarkable vehicle is being produced by his own motor design company in Cambridge, Massachusetts, called BPG Motors.
Small enough to fit in indoors, but powerful enough to tackle the road, the makers hope the cutting edge $7,500 (£4,600) ride will revolutionise the morning commute.
