One of the nicest headbadge designs I’ve seen.
The lugged twin plate crown fork is hotttttttttttness.
Ostrich skin Kashimax Aero saddle, anyone?
Bike of the Day – Icarus track bike
I spotted this Icarus build over at Prolly’s last week and it’s too good not to repost. The lowered seat stays and the feather logo are particularly lush.
Icarus were one of the exhibitors at the North American Handmade Bicycle Show (NAHBS) this weekend. Check out urbanvelo to take a look at the other bikes on display.

To commemorate (component manufacturer) Phil Wood’s 40th anniversary, Independant Fabrications in Boston were commissioned to build 40 limited-edition Titanium bikes. This is #00, specially reserved for the big cheese at Phil Wood.
As you’d expect from an anniversary-edition, there are logos all over.

Lego Technic fixed gear
I remember my parents buying me a LEGO Technic set when I was a kid, probably in the hopes that it would precipitate a career in mechanical engineering. Needless to say it didn’t, but I couldn’t help geeking out when I happened upon this 1:3 scale model of a fixed gear bike.
In keeping with the LEGO Technic ethos, every component – wheels, brake, drivetrain – is fully functional. Pretty nuts huh?
Spotted over at Prolly’s house.
Bike of the Day – Masi California Pursuit
Spotted this over at ZLOG’s house (via PedalRoom).
One word. Wow.
