Update, August 4, 2014 – The winning bicycle is Denny. Congratulations to the winning team TEAGUE x SIZEMORE BICYCLE. For more info: http://oregonmanifest.com/and-the-winner-isdenny/.
Five teams of designers and fabricators from five cities revealed their entries at the Oregon Manifest – Bike Design Project. Now the votes are coming in and the winner will be announced on Monday. With the help of Fuji, the winning bicycle will go into full production, showing up in bike shops in 2015.
My favorite? Well, it’s the “Denny”.
Designed by Seattle based TEAGUE and built by Sizemore Bicycle, this urban bicycle could become the norm for city-dwellers who depend on their bikes to get around. It’s functional, innovative and stylish.
Of course I voted for the Denny, but if you’d like to vote for your favorite visit the Oregon Manifest – Bike Design Project web site, watch the videos showcasing the bicycles from all five teams and then cast your vote. You have until August 3rd to vote. The winner will be announced on the 4th.
