Hardwood Audi Bicycles

While McLaren is going high-tech, it seems Audi is going natural with a new line of hardwood Bicycles. In a partnership with Renovo (a bike company that makes strictly wooden-framed bikes), Audi decided to make a green statement to go along with their energy conscious stance. There are three different styles of hand-made bikes that will be produced during the limited run, the duoCity, duoSport, and duoRoad priced at $6,530, $7,350, and $7,460 respectively. Apparently, a wood frame is 75% lighter than aluminum used in comparable bikes, and is able to maintain the same level of durability. The wood selected for the bikes is the same as the wood used in the dashboards of the cars for a little cross product action. These hand-made hardwood bicycles are a magnificent mixture of new bike technology and classic Audi styling.
