2010 Philly Bike Expo: Icarus Frames

The 2010 Philly Bike Expo brought out some beautiful show bikes. Included in the bunch was Ian from Icarus‘ creations. Ian’s a funny guy and this shirt is just the tip of the ice burg. While I’m sure Marty at Geekhouse appreciated the gesture, I can’t help but think of what he’s got in store for Ian at the NAHBS this year. Payback’s always fun right? Anyway, on to Icarus’ bikes…

Check out more photos below.

In the end, it’s all about having fun and creating beautiful things, like this oil painting.

Seriously though, on to Ian’s bikes. While he didn’t bring out any monstrosities like the Leviathan, the two bikes he had were show-stoppers.

A track bike and a road bike, each with unique detailing and a gorgeous wet coat.

I think by now, the seat tube cluster is Ian’s favorite area on a bike. All of his frames have such a unique cluster that it’s hard to look at any other part of the bike!

Especially with his sinister glare staring over your shoulder!

This road bike was clean as hell.

Here’s Ian’s hand, blocking my shot and explaining the fabrication process to a inquiring mind.

The feather keeps you light.
