A bikestand with integrated airpump. The product has been conceived for an art project in Ypenburg (a newly build neighborhood in the Netherlands). The goal of the project is to stimulate interaction between neighbors, while pumping their tires. It is made out of polished stainless steel and its shininess makes a great contrast to the grey pavement.
Mr.Bloomberg, NYC needs these.
(thank you TJ)
These would be great in NYC. Wake up Bloomy! I do love the beautiful typography on the window.

Before I clicked on the link, I thought it was a kickstand/air pump; now that would be handy.
