Thanks for clearing that one up... :D
I figured that Velocipede was a cool word for homebrew DIY bikes like 'Tall Bikes' that I hadn't heard before and I didn't want to sound uncool outside of this thread. Turns out it's a **Latin **word with roots deep in history.
Back to the subject at hand, if that bike had been finished a little better, especially at the two joins between the bottom bracket and the rear triangle, it would truly be a work of art. Considering the geometry of the bike I currently ride, I have a strange appreciation of long bikes.
