Monacle Bike: Bicycle Monowheel

Wait, what? Ok, anyone feel like a hamster!? With no handlebars it would appear as if you have to lean, like on a motorcycle, to steer. Sweet.

Take That SUVs!

While the Monsterbike may not be the best for tackling hills or going fast, it would certainly teach an important lesson to anyone who doesn’t check their mirror before opening their car door.

Big Ass 85cm Bike

bigassbikebigJust in case you were wondering, “hey, what does an 85cm bike look like?” Here’s one for ya.

Those are 700c wheels. Every time I post this photo people get upset and tell me that they must be 24″ wheels. Wrong 700C.

It is a great bike. It is 83.5 cm st and ht. I think I will try to get it and put a tiller and a kidback tandem crank on it so I can ride it. Ebay auction 330045460487.

There are some tandems and otherstuff being sold as well on ebay. Check em out here under seller name Kelly bike outlet.

Montana Transit Authority

transitauthorityNeal Fegan makes some killer looking bicycles, or more properly, velocipedes. Unfortunately, his site is a blob of flash un-link-able-ness, so you’ll have to sit through the time-wasting and pointless introduction. And there aren’t too many examples posted yet. But if the few creations he has are any indication of what is to come, this is a bicycle artist worth keeping your eye on.

And, my Mom cleans his Mom’s teeth, ha ha!

Heated Bicycle Saddle

Iron Saddle on WineandWheels.com While this splendidly envisioned heated bike seat looks about as comfortable as the saddles for real men, I think the battery-powered upside-down iron wins. From Momentum via Make:

Iron Saddle
Who hasn’t suffered from ‘cold butt’ while riding in winter, at least in the northern parts of the continent?… A battery, a 12 volt iron (without steam option) and voila! Toasty Buns! And of course if you are truly nimble you can iron your clothes while you ride.

Bicycle Bar, A.k.a Pedal Pub

pedalpub4Ok folks, how can we get this in a wine bar version? Wine glasses hanging upside down all classy like from the roof, and perhaps a corking fee if you pedal up with your own bottle?

Tandem Bicycle: Kid First Trandem

File under devicycles

This “trandem” looks like a great bike for a family. The steering is controlled by cables attached to the front fork that run all the way back to the rear captain’s handlebars. The kid-first design works like a movie theater where everyone can see above the person in front of them. Neat!

Rear Passenger Seat: Devicycles

I’m not quite sure that my wife would approve of this bike hack, but I really like the looks of it. The tubes seem to be aluminum and are perhaps the stock this banana seat came with (see this photo for comparison). A set of old-school rear pegs completes this passenger seating area. All in all, I don’t think this additional bike seat would be too uncomfortable. Found in NYC’s meat-packing district.
