The newest trend from high-end designers is posh bicycles. Why does GreenJAR.net love this, because hey, you can spare the air the effects of guzzling gases and CO2 emissions while maintaining that swaggerlicious style of yours. And the best part about all of these bicycles is that they are cruisers. Because a $17,000 cruiser makes more sense than a $17,000 road bike, right? Well regardless of the price, it is without a doubt that these bikes are true reflections of (overpriced) eco-fashion at it’s finest. Art you can actually travel with.
First let us introduce you to the HERMES Bicycle, a dressed up 3-speed Batavus bike with Hermes stitched leather accents for $3,500.
And then there is the ultra pricey CHANEL Bicycle, which features two quilted flap bags and a jewelry roll behind the seat, all of which are detachable and can be used as individual shoulder bags for a whopping $17,000 (though the two flap bags and jewelry roll is a nice addition). Are you still breathing?
Now I introduce you to the GUCCI CRUISER BICYCLE, a bike whose price range fits in between the Hermes and Chanel bikes. This is another cruiser sporting Gucci accents all over. The bronze metal frame does look nice with the chocolate Guccissima leather seat, handlebars, seat pack, and pannier. And the price on this bike, a whopping $6365. I am thinking. This is a bicycle, right? Does Gucci placing some leather on it make it a collectors item? Where would you ride this bike to?
Which would you cruise on? The Gucci, Chanel, or Hermes bike? I mean…it is for the greater good of the environment and all. Meet you on the Brooklyn bridge this weekend?
