Video: the Bikes of Charlie Steinlauf

We like to think that we live in the most creative time in the history of all the things. This video will make you wonder if that’s really the case. Apparently Charlie Steinlauf created some most unusual bikes in the 1930s in Chicago. Think Dr. Seuss meets custom frame builder. If it was possible for a bike to comically represent the patriarchy, one of these would take the cake, but we concede not many people find humor in institutionalized sexism. Nonetheless, these are some of the strangest bikes you will ever see, we promise.
