Cyclepedia: A Century of Iconic Bicycle Design


For all the possible ways to cycle, there s a bicycle that will suit that need.

Cyclepedia: A Century of Iconic Bicycle Design is an homage to the beauty of the bike, in its myriad forms.

Cyclepedia highlights the innovations and influence of bicycle design over the past one hundred years.

Michael Embacher, an avid collector and fan of two-wheeled transport, takes the reader on a tour of 100 bicycles.

The bikes range from top-end racing bikes and high-tech hybrids to the strangely specific (e.g., the bike designed to be used on ice).

The book is beautifully photographed. Moreover, it comes with lists of components, and detailed information ion each of the bikes.

A great read for those with an interest in bicycles and the design thereof.
