Laughably. Wrong... Like, how much it la
COSTs? I get the impression that, considering both its price tag and the market it seems to be aimed at, the designers' idea of an ultimate city bike was one absolutely more worth stealing than half the cars in Paris.
As for the MoMA bike... sheesh- I'm sure that by now the Snob's ripped it (and maybe The Grant) a new one. It just looks like the ultimate toy-bike for any trendoid-yuppie with a secret fetish for 'whimsical' Portland plaid (as opposed to the 'dirty grunge' plaid we used to offend people with BITD).
I can hear it now: "But MoMA's in on it, so it has to be good design, riiight?"; "But GP had something to do with the design, so it must be
solid, riiight?" In more ways than one, I'm guessing.
Oy vey... spare me & just go buy a Linus.
