Forgive me for not including these in the latest Pantone products post I just put up on October 5th, but I wasn't aware of these colorful wheels until just now.
Pantone Universe has collaborated with GIC bikes (who make several branded bikes like Renault bikes and SAAB bikes) to come out with a family of 3 Pantone Universe Bicycles. The Town or City Bike, a folding bike, the FDB166 and the Pantone Universe Basic 20.
The GIC Bike company of Japan has three styles of Pantone Universe Bikes; the Town Bike, The FDB166 Folding bike collection and the most recent addition to the line, The Basic 20. Unfortunately, they are only available in Japan. Big Boo-hoo.

The Basic 20 comes in Vivid Blue, Orange and Lime Green and is the least expensive of the three:

GIC also makes matching bike locks for the bikes:
As I said earlier in the post, these lust-worthy bikes are only available in Japan and I am positively 364 C with envy.
