Wheel related design exhibition

Was pootling around Clapham yesterday and came across a small design studio/gallery showing an exhibition of wheel-themed art and design. Well it wasn't earth shattering but worth a look if you're passing by. Best thing: 'free range pen'. Worst thing: tragically hip Nike 'fixie', complete with:
white deep v's (check)

wheel related design exhibition

Was pootling around Clapham yesterday and came across a small design studio/gallery showing an exhibition of wheel-themed art and design. Well it wasn't earth shattering but worth a look if you're passing by.

Best thing: 'free range pen' - a little rig attached to a pen and a motor with an off-balance load. It dithers around on a piece of paper like a little washing machine,
leaving a doodle behind it.

Worst thing: tragically hip Nike 'fixie', complete with: white deep v's, white chain, white everything else, risers, leather top tub protector, with down tube and seat tube protectors thrown in for good measure, twisted spoke lacing etc.

At least they'll let you bring your bike in - in most cases, it will put the Nike to shame..

sorry about this - bizarre firefox keyboard behaviour caused me
to screw up the OP and somehow start the same thread twice.
Ignore this thread and look in the other one.

(VB: can I delete this thread?)

I've seen this exhibit. its def worth a look. The Nike bike is by Ben Wilson, no? Ben's done some pretty neat stuff with bikes in the past but that's not his best. I expect it had to do with nike's idea of what it should look like tho.
