Thomas Porter's Splendid Cycles

This is a great short docu about Thomas.  What this dude is doing with bikes is pretty cool.
It would be a blast to ride some of these 'splendid cycles' that he's made.


they say:

"Brooklyn resident William Thomas Porter builds wonderful - and really weird - bikes. "I wouldn't call them mutants," he says of his bike caricatures, "because that would make them sound ugly. It's more like creating this... new splendid form." We followed him around for a about a year documenting his projects and cajoling him into demonstrating the bikes' awesomeness in a series of humorous, fast-paced vignettes.

Throughout the short Tom chats with good friend (and sometimes collaborator), Diego Guzman, about how and exactly why he does what he does."
