Guys, I have found somethings similar at the following address.
Apparently they are called 'kickstarters.' [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

I'm not sure why bikemania.biz calls this line of scooterbikes
"kickstarters." Most other dealers sell them under the Sidewalker name.
The U.S. distributor is sidewalkerusa.com
It appears that Rita Hayworth was standing on an Ingo bike (with front
wheel smaller than the rear wheel). Some recumbernt bikes have a front
wheel that is smaller than the rear wheel, but I don't know of any
scooter-bike hybrids that do. Some have front and rear wheels that are
the same size (e.g., Sidewalkers) and some have a front wheel that is
larger than the rear wheel. An example of the latter is the Kickbike
brand scooter-bike, which has either a 26 inch or 700c front wheel, and
either a 16 or 18 inch rear wheel.
