    I'm standing in a bar, having a quiet Friday evening drink and I've just seen this. Laughed so hard I spat beer all over the poor sod standing next to me.

    Oh and I really enjoyed the 'handlebars' comment...

    I love the designer's attention to detail on this, the little strengthening struts above each crown to ensure they don't shear off due to their weight.
