Bicycles, like cars, are chock-full of parts that can
be replaced, but simply switching out silver aluminum rims for hot-pink
ones is child’s play. Welcome to the world of bike modding,
where bicyclists get creative and turn their two-wheelers into rolling
works of art and artifice. From upgrading their bikes’ usefulness —
with built-in grocery carts, railway attachments, snowshoes and the like
— to just pimping them out with sound systems and arty add-on, bicycle
tinkerers work to improve the standard two-wheel ride in ways both
practical and phantasmagorical.
