I’m not big on picking up stories that all the other sites have covered to death, but this is just too cool. A 16 year old kid has built a bike made entirely of wood. To me, the most interesting part of the machine is the “ratcheting” mechanism that lets the rear wheel coast when you’re not pedaling. Though, I guess the chain was pretty tough to design.
