Looks cool. But, the first pot hole you hit, it would probably break in about 5 places. I wouldn't ride that thing.
Change your avatar back or I'm going to launch a formal protest.

It weighs 100 pounds and is made with 5 sheets of plywood epoxide together. I don't think it would bust.

You don't know how much I weigh!
Speed + shock absorbtion from hole + load + strength of wood & epoxy = failure in wood & epoxy (in forks) ... wood peels away from epoxy (epoxy stronger than the wood) Speed + shock absorbtion from hole + load + strength of aluminum or steel or composite = loverly safe ride. Two things: 1) if you buy that bike, will you put me in your will? 2) you never addressed blatant attack and change on your best avatar yet...I'm nearly primed to launch my formal protest.

114 lbs. Can you imagine trying to climb a hill with that beast.

Nice frame but what's up with the angle of the saddles? THose Brooks are pointed so high it would be like riding on the seat post. Those saddles are very heavy, btw. they could proabbyl save about 3-5 lbs (seriuously) by using something besides a Brooks double sprung.
