L'OVALLE
- December 2007
Named for Miguel Ovalle, a talented artist and designer and a big inspiration of Josh's, L'Ovalle was an experiment in fabrication speed and efficiency in replicating a design type. Similar in design to the Eco-Luxe and the gas-powered Youn-Jeung, it took just over three weeks of marathon work sessions to build. In honor of his inspiration, Miguel was the first to test-ride this bike on the streets of SoHo. Its shimmering, polished copper finish literally stopped traffic. In fact it stopped so much traffic the police asked us to please leave the area... one of the nicest things they've ever said to us.
Copper on carbon steel, hand-tooled bison leather seat and grips, pedal powered with coaster brake.
