The hand-made carbon fiber bike


Now this is an impressive DIY project. This amazing-looking bike, dubbed the C-Thru Road Frame, is completely homemade and built using carbon fiber, making it not only a cool looking bike but also a really light and efficient one.

Taking over 300 hours to complete, the bike is hand-built from carbon fiber rods connected with epoxy resin. Unsurprisingly, Brano Meres, the builder of this impressive bike, is an engineer, hence the bridge-inspired construction.

Want one? It'll take you a few years of engineering school and then 300 work hours. Sorry, pal.
