Geekhouse Polo Bike

I missed this bike when it was brand-new and shiny at the NAHBS, but it's got some fantastic details. Made for the writer of Urban Velo, it's got track geometry, 26" wheels (135mm front and back), S&S couplers, a bent seat tube for a tighter wheelbase, and something I'd never seen before––disc brakes with recycled discs for guards! Pretty darn brilliant, and a great reuse of what would normally be pitched in the garbage. That one feature, combined with the fact that I'd love to play bike polo someday, makes this a favorite. Geekhouse has some fine bikes, every single one out of my price range.
