£6 "eco" bike
Anyone got more information on this bike?
The cardboard bicycle defies all preconceptions; it is strong, waterproof, humidity-resistant and most crucially, at £6, cheap to build.

Im not sure its uci legal
I want one aswell.
I'm taking that it would be the frame and wheels which would be £6, you then need to stick some tyres, brakes and a saddle.
I still cant see how the gearing works. Almost certain it would have to be a fixie, but HOW?
How can that be 6 pounds?
I want.
