DIY French Porteur

Thursday, January 26th, 2012

 Spotted in the 10ème, this bike amused me with its custom front and rear racks. I’m not certain how either of them are used, but there’s no doubt they’re custom made for SOMETHING!

The general view of the bike
Do the pushpins say ART.CASS?
 Here’s how the rear rack attaches to the seat stays. The blue bungies are just on one side.

Freebie Friday

Friday, September 16th, 2011

Wow, it has been a LONG time since this blog has had a freebie friday.

In hopes of making up for all that lost time, I would like to offer someone in the Boston area my custom-reinforced Cyclist-themed Bike Rack Wine Box.

For information about the box please see this post with the details and this post with more photos. This box will work best for you if you have a Blackburn rear rack, but should be customizable for another rack. Email me to discuss picking this up for free. *CLAIMED*

Happy Friday everyone!!!

Wooden Rack Box

Awesome rack-mounted box spotted on Mass Ave. I peeked inside it and the owner had a bike helmet in there at the time of these photos. I particularly liked the wide leather straps, this was clearly a DIY project.
