a lament for momovelo

i know that many people ultimately ended up upset with momovelo due to it's poor execution, but i find that it filled an important role in the healthy spectrum of relatively inexpensive bikes.

they were artful, unique, inspiring, utilitarian, and now it's all gone.

what has happened to the tradition of the artful bicycle? it seems like all of the homage to the french tradition has fled to japan.

i sincerely hope that someone launches a new business in the form that momovelo began. peter white and rivendell can hardly do it alone.
