The Dandy Horse
Let me caution velocipedists against expecting too much from any description of velocipede. They do not give power, they only utilise it; there must be an expenditure of power to produce speed. - George Routledge & Sons 1869

Niko Schmutz from the School of Design at Pforzheim University has created this innovative three-piece wooden bike frame made from super thin layers of oak veneer. Inspired by the wooden dandy horse bikes of the early 19th century, the frame has a resilience that absorbs vibrations whilst giving off a spring effect for crossing some of the most uneven roads with ease.
