Those derailieurs just look too space age, like some kind of compact space gun.
Clearly they're lighter etc... but going on looks alone they're not great in my book.

I think its mostly just that carbon mesh, it looks like some kinda shit tartan and half the time its not even real, just how you expect carbon to look so they apply it as a finish.

Thats a joke! All top end cars are chain driven for a reason as well.
Cambelts are shite and so is this!!
That belt will have too much give on steep inclines.
that's a question of space in the engine compartment. and they use a totally different type of chain.

The wheels must weigh a shitload and be as bumpy as fuck but it's incredibly beautiful and I'll wager quite a quick ride with the seating position so close to in line with the cranks!!
If he could build some of the wheels from something else... Alu or ideally Ti, I'd buy a one/ pair...

Even the writing on the tyres is in green and white. Genius attention to detail that!
Needs two disk wheels for the ultimate look :P

It does actually!! Check his website (address on pic)
Nah not really serious about the wheels, personally I'd put a set of silver H+Son laced to Level hubs on it myself...

Haha! Its my "kosmos" bike. Its not very serious project, so do not take it so seriously. Its like
moving art piece. Its "all show, no go trick bike" ;) No, but its really made for driving, but its made
out of recycled material and ofcourse its not lightest or strongest bike. Those wheels are made out
of RST rims and spokes are steel, complete wheels weight about 2kilo each, for how I made them
I'm suprised how straigh they actually become. I should try to get non drilled alloy rims and I could
try to manufacture some sets out of aluminium.Here you can find some other pics of it: Flickr
and some making of photos at my websiteHave nice weekend!

i have a lot of respect for the guy who built it. it looks like he has great skill, although i think design wise he's slightly lacking.
give him a few years and im sure we'll be seeing even crazier/better contraptions
