  • Glow in the dark Puma

    By now, you have probably already seen the glow in the dark Puma Urban Mobility bike made by Biomega. Ron sent me a link to this slamxhype post a couple days ago, but I didn’t get a chance to post it. Since then, I have noticed that it is getting a lot of coverage on…

  • G-Star Raw Cannondale

    You have probably already seen pictures of this bike. I saw it first at the Tusindsmil blog a few weeks ago and I meant to post about it, but I couldn’t read any of the text. Since then, I have seen it here, here, and here to name a few places. I was curious about…

  • NAHMBS and more

    It has been a theme lately, but once again, I am too way busy to think much about bicycle design or the blog. I have been slammed at work the last few weeks and a good portion of the small amount of time I have outside of work and family responsibilities is going toward local…

  • Links to pass along

    I am still quite busy catching up from last week, so it will take me a while to get through all of the blog related messages in my Gmail account. For now though, I want to quickly pass along just a few links that were sent by readers while I was away. Jason sent me…

  • Design of the Arantix Mountain Bike

    As most regular readers know, I am an industrial designer, but I do not work in the bicycle industry. As much as I enjoy writing about bikes a couple hours a week, my real job obviously has to take precedence over the blog, and any other bike related reading, when I get really busy. For…

  • Traveling again

    I am going out of town tomorrow for a little over a week. I will post if I get a chance, but it is sometimes hard to find the time when traveling for business and working long days. The trip also means that I will be off the bike for a bit over a week.…

  • Mike Burrows video

    Mike Burrows video

    I have mentioned Mike Burrows on the blog a few times before; I even mentioned him in one of my very first posts. He has designed many great recumbent bikes and trikes throughout his career, but I most admire the work he did on uprights like the Lotus bike for Chris Boardman and the first…

  • Mystery wooden bike

    Soon after I mentioned the JANO bike in June of last year, a reader, Roberto, sent me this image of another wooden bike. The message and image kind of got lost in the shuffle until he recently sent me another email about something else. Anyway, Roberto doesn’t really remember where he found this image. He…

  • Cube urban bike concept

    I hope everyone had a great New Year. It certainly felt like January here in Greenville this morning. I guess I am a fair weather bike commuter because I usually just drive to work on cold days. This morning though, I rode despite temps in the 20s. By the time I got to work, my…
