The I.cycle - Not a NZ project, but too good to ignore! This is an "invisible" cycle, designed by Saul Griffiths of the MIT. Its constructed from sheets of transparent polycarbonate, which have been cut out using CNC machines.  To learn more about the I.cycle, here are a number of websites that are well worth visiting:

An article on the I.cycle also appears in the June 2002 issue of "Velo Vision", a copy of which is in the Kiwi HPV lending library.
