Description

Students will resurrect junkyard bikes and transform them into alternative ideas of pedal powered transport. While researching design sources and experiencing take-a-part mechanics, participants will practice appropriate fundamentals of bicycle cut and fit fabrication through the construction of a simple Kick Bike. Using this experience, each person will then build a bike-ish design of their choice and ride in parade at quarter’s end.
