Best Answer

I think you looking for a bicycle called the Penny-farthing, an early design of bicycle that had a very large front wheel.
It is called a penny-farthing. Called that because the difference between the big wheel and the small wheel was similar to the difference between the old British pre-decimal penny and the farthing.
