To promote bicycle tourism for maintaining environment, Rajiv kumar has designed the tallest cycle. He is also an Limca Book of Records holder. He desgined a cycle which is taller than human. He modified his cycle to a new height of eight freet, six inches.

Rajiv belongs to Chandigarh, India. He is 34-year-old, famous for riding his specially designed cycle.

        

 His journey to fame started when he was in Class X. “At that time I wanted to do something different but was not sure how to go about it. Then one day I raised the seat of my cycle just for the heck of it, but realised that my feet did not reach the pedals. So I got the bike modified by raising the pedals," says the Limca record holder. 

        

Although its the tallest cycle in India right now but apart from this, He also built a 13 feet tall cycle in 1999 but unfortunately government banned the cycle on city roads. He dreams to do something different.

In Daily Bhaskar he told that,

 “At that time I wanted to do something different but was not sure how to go about it. Then one day I raised the seat of my cycle just for the heck of it, but realised that my feet did not reach the pedals. So I got the bike modified by raising the pedals.” 

He faced out many difficulties but he doesn't seek help from anyone. He spent Rs. 80,000 INR to design his currently own cycle from his own pocket.
