Maker Faire Bay Area 2009

Unusual Handmade Bikes

I build unusual bikes and scooters from discarded materials.
wooden bikes, Ski bikes, crutch bikes, scooter bikes, etc.

You can test ride them.
You can see how they're put together.

I'll give a half hour bike design and construction talk at 12:30 each day.

About the Maker(s)

Tom Kabat

- Woodenbikes.com

A former serious cyclist who still loves bikes. An engineer, 30 year bike commuter and bike tourer (Trans America 1976), Tom was inspired to build bikes after seeing other great home built pedal machines at Kinetic Sculpture races and a wide variety of antique bikes on display in museums. I enjoy Maker Faire as a festival of inspiration and idea exchange.
