I made this bike for myself because I was inspired to do so by my similar furniture designs. It rides very smoothly and elicits comments from those who are paying attention to bikes. It is a little on the heavy side at 40 pounds but I overbuilt it because it is the first one. I am working on another version with 700c wheels, probably fixed...
This bike is currently on display in The OTB Cafe in Pittsburgh's Historic South Side.
