pipe bike by bruno gavira

‘pipe bike’ by bruno gavira

developed by spanish bruno gavira, the children bike made out of 100% standard PVC drain pipes, where the saddle has been modeled from a 110mm drain pipe using a hot air gun and cut to shape afterwards. joints are put together with PVC glue or screwed depending the effort they have to support. the wheels are taking from a beer case crate trolley, and they have inner ball bearing included. axel hubs are the only steel pieces in the bike, with an industrial 8mm. thick piece of felt to make the saddle comfortable.
