This beautiful bike is not only handmade from rare and vintage parts, it also has a hidden flask. Genius.

I like it, but I wish that it were upside down, so that it would mesh with the seat better. It looks like a very short bike (look how close the rear tire is to the seat tube, and how close the down tube is to the front tire), which would make for twitchy handling–which could be a challenge for a drunk. I do wish even more that the flask would be somehow integrated into the frame, like Lance’s water bottles- that would be cool if there was a little pop up straw that you could sip from while riding, or a flask that looked like a bike pump.
Now that I’m thinking about it, I used to ride with some guys in North Carolina who would stash some herbs in the bottom of their seat post and seal it with a cork. They were just a quick-release skewer away from enlightenment.
I love this, great for winter rides. I think me and C will need to add these to our drinks.
wow, so pretty
Nice bike, and the flask is very smart
omg…this is too much. I love it!
AH! i’m in love!
Oh Jo! I want that bike!!!!! lol! it is so pretty, and the flask is just a bonus… sheesh! I really have to win the lotto if I’m to pay the debts and get a bike like that!
Thanks for the minutes of dreams, though! LOL!
that’s genius! lol…it makes it even easier to get a B.U.I.
I adore that hidden bike flask so much.
What an adorable idea! I went to a college where BUI’s were handed out like crazy, and you had to walk on the street with you cup faced down as they thought if you had an upward facing cup there was alcohol in it…this would have been the perfect bike!:-)
that bike is sexy!! love it!
Nice idea! And what an elegant bike!! Perfect for the Tweed Run.
I had a bike like this it was outside an old man’s house with a sign attached saying ‘FREE RIDE AWAY’ so I asked him and took it! haha it had a bell and everything but then my dad threw it in the tip…..:(
that is the idea of my perfect bike
perhaps i wouldn’t say that when i’d drank a little too much and had an accident
but wow
its breathtakingly beautiful
xxxxxxxxxxxx
That’s kick ass!
such a great bike! i love the little flask.
Love it, that’s what good design is all about!
The best things in life are elegantly simple
sneaky, sneaky!
a stroke of genius…. and that buttery leather color is to die for!
we are thinking of doing wine tasting by bicycle (in santa barbara) for my bachelorette party! this just cuts out the middle man!
A bike builder I much admire, Joseph Ahearne, makes a flask holder that is easy to mount on any bike with water bottle bosses. He also built this little beauty: http://www.ahearnecycles.com/pages/maggiemixte.html
*sigh* I could moon over bikes for an unhealthily long amount of time.
in love.
AHHHH-MAZING!!!
oh my goodbikeness. im going to have to show my ben this right now, he is going to flip! how awesome!
fabulous!
Surely violates any open-container laws!!
But a very handsome bike & idea.
haha! i love that the flask is hidden beneath the seat!
amazing…although i fear it could be a disaster…;))
That would inspire me to actually ride my bike if I had a flask holder!
i had no idea you could get a biking DUI! you’d have to be careful with this number.
I LOVE this bike! Everything about it is just perfect and that flask is hilarious!
awesome.
although I hope they drink responsibly!
There goes that BUI… Biking Under the Influence. Otherwise, all it needs is an old baseball card flapping in the wheel and it would be perfect.
What a lovely, restored bike. I like the leather and think the hip flask is a cute addition! Thanks for sharing!
oh, that leather is gorgeous.
OMG, hubby, the mountain biker, would love that. But somehow I think it could be hazardous to his health! ;oP
that bike is great! to bad DUI rules apply to bike riding too….would be nice to ride somewhere quiet and peaceful and have swig of a flask…
Ahh! I want this so bad. My two favourite things: whiskey and vintage bikes.
:o)
so rad!
I bet if you put the flask on fire with whiskey in it, it’ll look like there’s a rocket in the back.
far out. >D
cute idea! but not sure how safe, haha!
very clever and creative….
LOVE it!
Hee hee. Clevah.
I COMPLETELY think this bike was meant for me :)
completely.
OMG. Brilliant.
This explains how you can get a DUI on a bicycle! I always wondered…
:)
How cool is that!?
now, is that legal? isn’t it still drinking and driving?? makes for fun afternoon cruising adventures…
Oooh, I love the whole aesthetic!
I recently bought a bike and have been noticing bikes more and more. I’m impressed with this one. I love the colors!
Well and they are always saying “Don’t drink & drive”! This gives new meaning to the term!
L
i cannot show this to my B. man it would be a disaster!
