Now I'm Confused

This is the Concept 1865 electric velocipede. Why? Can someone tell me what's the pro of having 2 different sizes of wheels? It's designed by DING3000 from Germany. In collaboration with BASF. A plastic bike that looks like an antique penny-farthing. Mmmm. It probably rides very good but it looks ugly.

"North of the Kumasi marketplace is Suame Magazine, a neighbourhood car market. Originating in 1920s when blacksmiths started to shift their attention from carriages to cars, the Suame Magazine, now employes an estimated 200,000 artisans in 12,000 enterprises, mainly related to auto repair."
