[quote=the bike biz] The Piccolo is made of Sillgey’s 757 light weight double butted crome-moly tubing. It is designed to run 20 1-1/8" (451 ISO) wheels, and 120mm spaced rear hubs. The Piccolo will work with standard 20" (406 ISO) wheels, but then brakes won’t reach.

has anyone seen this? everything about it is stupid (especially the marketing and the name)
but i still want one so bad.
and is cheap. am i reading things wrong or is the minivelo made of nicer steel than the 700c?
thinking about either this or waiting around forever for a raleigh twenty to come along cheap or a xootr swift.
We have one of the Cannondale Hooligans at the shop. Its pretty fun for riding down the street to get coffee. With the right gearing and clipless it could be a sick little commuter bike.

Damnit this thread has me seriously thinking about buying one of those “Big Shot” polo bikes and throwing clipless, drop bars, high gearing on it for going stupid fast on a stupid bike. $300 is about the most I’d pay for something like this.
