“Wood delivers a fabulous ride. You haven’t ridden anything like it before. It’s supple, but strong and makes a delightfully smooth ride.” Those words come from Chris Connor, founder of Connor wood bicycles. Ash wood frame, steam-bent with Kevlar reinforcements and Walnut center stripes, Connor’s custom rides are some of the prettiest we’ve ever seen. His motto? “Hug a bike. Ride a tree.” We dig. —Stephen Regenold
