Frame i found at Louisville

You need to ask this question in 20 or 30 years, if you can find somebody that still has one that hasn't fallen apart.

 

I have an Ikea coffee table built with those same design principles,... works great!

 

Personally, I think they look kind of neat. Definitely not trad, but they have a unique look. That being said, would I ever use one? Hell no. I'm picturing all sorts of mayhem, just looking at it.

But maybe they're on to something for companies on the tradeshow/new product demo tours? A light weight frame that you could easily bolt your new engine/suspension/IFS/rear end/drop axle/etc. on for mock up and display purposes? And the frame could be switched up or changed depending on the show...

 

funny a me and a buddy designed this bike back in college just for shits and giggles...same idea for the frame. Completely impractical and we were fueled by beer and wacky tobacky...I wonder what their excuse was?

 

Lol, hey that was a good one!
