I have a sneaking feeling that many of you are going to hate this little bike but I love it. Lee Fabry has built some really trick Hodaka's and other stuff over the years but this one takes it to a new level. I'm not a big one for green bikes or anything else but this bit of bling looks just right, even the green wheels look cool in my eye. I'm guessing it's a bit of a show pony and hasn't seen much action but who cares. It adds a bit of fun to the pits. Once you get past the visual impact, the bike itself is a trick bit of gear, featuring just about every Hodie trick in the book.
 Cool as penguin piss.

My bad! I meant 'reflecting'. Doesn't seem so clever when you have to amend the comment :-[
'Relecting' sounds like it should be a word though. :)

I may not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it.
