One of the world's largest and most esteemed museums of contemporary artworks is elevating two-wheeled mobility to the level of art with an exhibition of 70 of the most stand-out bicycle designs from the past two centuries.

From the usual diamond frame to increasingly elegant, innovative and bizarre designs such as a floating crescent-shaped model, Munich's Pinakothek der Moderne museum has opened an exhibition of more than 70 bicycles, no two of which are alike.
