This project is an exploration of a new concept of wood bicycles.
Has an entirely wooden frame and has only metal parts in the connectors of the wheels, saddle and pedals.

Some caracteristics of this bicycle are:
- Wooden frame bike
- Front and back LED lights embedded into the wood frame
- Inside space for storage
- Detachable plywood plates
- Detachable plywood plates
