Ride around on an old tree

Rocking frames and handlebars fashioned from American ash and walnut, Connor Wood Bicycles are works of "functional art" modeled after modern cruisers that, unlike their stainless steel- and aluminum-bodied counterparts, provide a naturally smooth ride due to wood's ability to absorb impacts and vibrations, hence why it's such a popular material for carshelmetswashing machines floors

The brand offers two models -- the one-speed Cruiser and the two-speed Scorcher -- each of which're hand-built, and'll stand up to wear and tear thanks to special "steam bent" construction, Kevlar reinforcements at key stress points, and a marine varnish that holds up to the elements.
