Since the beginning, the bicycle has not changed much.  The frame, the handlebars, the wheels and the pedals all remain.  That’s not good enough for modern consumer culture– we want the latest in gadgets and tech for nearly everything we buy.  But while bicycles have only added tiny improvements on an old theme, many have rejected these bells and whistles for basic simplicity.  This stripped-down, single speed revolution has hit every major city across the globe, with cyclists demanding back-to-basics biking.  Alta Single Speed Bikes of Norway celebrate this trend with their works of cycling art.  These lightweight, sexy single speed bikes feature just what a cyclist needs- a frame, handlebars, wheels and pedals.
