a steering wheel becomes this recycled bike’s handlebar

using recycled shopping carts for the metal frame and discarded bicycle components to outfit the remainder parts of bike, japanese studio taphonomy have also implemented another unique feature; a steering wheel from a salvaged car that replaces the original handle bars. dubbed as the ‘angel ring’, the contraption operates by connecting directly to the head tube, which ultimately turns the forks  – maneuvering the two-wheeled transporter in a similar fashion to that of a vehicle.
