What' so impressive about a model of a bike? I have one at home that's a scale model of a 6-person tandem, that's about 14 inches long.
It just looks to me like a larger version of those fingerbikes I played with in the 5th grade.

Sorry! I must live a sheltered life! I find the workmanship impressive!
And I never heard of a " finger bike"

I love that 1953 Bianchi and its "mini-me" clone.

Gary's '53 and Pogliaghi's '60 Bianchis are, hands down, the two sharpest, classiest machines here at C&V (IMHO, of course). Beautiful, just beautiful!
