Needs More Cupholders!


Needs More Cupholders!

As anyone who's tried to ride a bicycle while holding on to a cup or bottle can attest, it is dangerous and difficult. Which is why someone came up with this rather cool solution. Build the cup holder into the bike.

They even included a bottle opener, those thoughtful souls!

I'm definitely a fan of clever implementations like this. Its elegant, won't throw off the bike's balance at all, is safer than riding with a bottle in your hand and adds some flair to an otherwise fairly mundane cruiser/town bike.

Two thumbs up!
