Looks like Softride re-designed by Salvador Dali!

Is that a cutout or a protrusion on the saddle?

Seems like that HUGE hole where a bottom bracket would normally be would create some massive drag....no?

Interesting but also a confusing concept. This might be an optical illusion but is the rear wheel off center? Also, is the crank arm (left side) and your foot supposed to go in-between the rear wheel and the frame?

What to pay...
Without Cervelo decals $0. With Cervelo decals $10,000… This is ST after all...


In peace,

The rear wheel isn't off center, the whole "bottom bracket" is. WTF? It looks kind of funky-cool, but I'm curious if this was actually designed as a thought experiment or if aerodynamics were really a consideration.

For example, the down tube swings out the right, putting that part of the frame, the bottom bracket, etc, right out into the wind. On the other hand, the chain, chain stay, and rear sprocket are shielded by it.

The hole in the middle of the cranks is an obvious issue.

Hmm...there are brake levers, but no calipers. Those armrests look painful. Hope you can get your elbows narrow.

I'm also trying to figure out how many different size would need to be made....I see no way of ever adjusting the seat at all...fore, aft, up, down, looks like it's fixed to the "beam".

Well if you wanna get picky, there are brake levers, but no brakes. The left fork leg and chainstay are missing. The seatstays are also missing. There are no bottle bosses. I can't see where you'd ever put a bento box or a seatbag. And on and on.

I don't care ... that's one sweet piece of cycling art and I tip my hat to whoever created it.

Who did create it, btw?

Cannondales left fork is one sided And several motorcycles have single sided swingarms.
It needs one of those Wear and Tear Black Hole front wheel/fork (hubless/spokeless wheel). Anyone remember those from the late 80's?

Yea,

There was one on Ebay last year (but the bidding went out of my range).

"there are brake levers, but no brakes"

There appears to be a line coming out to the rear wheel just inside the cog. I don't know if this is a gear shift for internal gears on the hub (doesn't appear likely as the hub is quite small) or a hydraulic brake. If its a brake the same set up could be used up front but we can't see it.

You can see how the bottom bracket area si off set for the chain line and then curves back in line at the headtube. The non chainring side would have to stick out a bit to centre the pedals under the seat though.
