Now That's Another Attempt

Just caught this on the FastCompany site. Interesting to say the least. I love the idea, but the execution is a bit garish in it's own right.

There is a difference between "overgrown choppers" and "ridiculous-looking crotch rockets" and these "retro 1960s inspired" D-bikes (ala D-bags) ... but it's not that big of a difference.













































Carefully Considered does some amazing work. Their Trek designs were top-shelf. I'm just not down with these overly 3D modeled, single-cylinder, laser-etched, "cafe-inspired" production bikes. Pretty much any production bike these days. Even when you re-think it. This just ends up looking like something I'll be able to buy at Scooter World for $1599.

With that said, I bet if it does get made it would be a gas to ride.
