Perhaps the coolest bike I've ever seen in the flesh

Didn’t know where to post this (feel free to move if you need).

Following a conversation I had with the Blakesta® in Melbz I’ve dug around some old pics. The bike was ugly and stealth and kind of Battestar Gallactica - major drool and unlike any bike I’ve ever seen. Had a vibe about it like from another planet, every detail was captivating. Made somewhere between 1910 and early 1930’s (guessing) and the crappy pics are from the (r.i.p.) Canberra Bike Museum.








angular tubes are quite interesting

It’s a shame about the Canberrra Bicycle Museum. Most of their collection was sold off, I wonder where this whacky beast is now? I really like it.

i want a townie to do the stem/bar combo.

The precursor to the Yo Eddy fork!

nothing new under the sun… same tube configuration as my LOOK KX roadie.
I tried to buy a few bits and bobs from CBM/logo bikes but they were hard people to deal with.

What happened to it?

Love the tool bag and that huge wing nut, shits mad.

tweed as.
