Erik Björk is an industrial designer from Sweden and holds a Bachelors in Furniture Design that he earned attending Carl Malmsten CTD.  He strives for sustainable design solutions that are not too experimental and not too conventional utilizing low cost materials.  One such solution is what he calls DIYWBC.  What does that acronym stand for you may ask...well, it stands for Do It Yourself Wooden Bicycle (Version 1)!  Erik is a mountain biker in his spare time, and his love for bikes shows with his DIYWBC project.  Erik describes the DIYWBC in his own words:

The Do It Yourself Wooden Bicycle is just about everything industrial design don´t is.  It is very easy to copy an reproduce.  With a trashed bike to get components from and a nearby hardware store anyone can build it with normal hand tools.  The look is quit rough and unconventional making it safe from thieves and if you miss something on the bike like a parcel carrier just build it the way you want it.  The Do It Yourself Wooden Bicycle even got a name that is to long to be commercial.  The bike is to be seen as a first test version of a open source project.  Please build your own, if you want drawings of the bike for an initial help just mail me at diywbc@erikbjork.com

Anyone out there who's built their own DIYWBC, please send us pics!
