Sergey Dashevsky first made a small bike back in 2008, which measured 24 cm. But he won a Guinness world record award for riding an even smaller bike in 2019 that measured just 8.4 cm (3.31 in).
Although it may look like a toy, the Russian artist has challenged the growing trend of manufacturing bigger vehicles. It is not only adorable to the eyes but also fully functional, supporting the weight of an adult of up to 100 kg.

Sergey calls it “The Big Boy,” while holding the tiniest bicycle right in his hands.
In August 2022, Sergey's balancing act while riding the mini bicycle at a fountain in Moscow led him to gain popularity among fans on the internet.
The artist has been designing various bikes on his own to help him compete in different marathons abroad.
"You only need training and a good sense of balance to do it," says Sergey.
Sergey has made it to Guinness World Records just like this shortest married couple from Brazil, or this oldest British woman celebrating her 116th birthday. Make it more wholesome and you'll be inspired to jump off the sky after seeing this 104-year old Chicago woman being world's oldest skydiver.
