Got Wood?

This is probably a million years old in the internet/designer/graphic artist/hiptser world but I haven’t seen it posted here yet and I think its worth sharing. Nice wooden bike:

my brother in law has a pair of wooden bicycle rims… laced to old steel hubs i think which he pulled from a generations old bike many moons ago. Might try and get a few pics of them, they are some pretty cool bicycle nostalgia.

I built it up for gary who made the frame out of carbon and wood layered together to make it strong and as far as we have tested similar to a steel frame . I have ridden it and it is actually pretty stiff and rides quiet nicely. complete bike is around $10k to build though.



I think there is more pics of it on the bikeculture.com.au gallery thing on photobucket.
if you have any questions about it let me know
