If you think of technology as a work of art, Gus has taken the technology to a new level of art in his wooden bikes. Here are the two I have seen:

Bicycle art is just popping out of the woodwork now! (pun intended!)
Very nice effect. Was wondering if the wood was applied over a steel frame, or if the whole frame is wood. Looks like the first pic is an all-wood frame. The headtube appears to be fastened on with flat-head wood-screws through those scalloped flanges on the sides. I love the motorcycle-style forks! I’ll bet that ain’t no Brookes saddle, though! Ouch, my butt hurts just to look at it!
VERY nice woodwork!
