As we all know, the main means of transportation is the bicycle in China. Can you imagine the bicycle made of wood? A farmer who lives in Tie Ling city, Liao Ning province has made a wooden bicycle which is amazing for its unique design and fine workmanship.
The wooden bicycle is the same size as the normal ones, and an adult can ride it smoothly with a child on the back of it. With 95cm in height and 140cm in length, it weights 16 kilograms. What fills people with admiration is that the 24 wooden block chains and the two wheels fit so closely together. Besides, 26 wooden buttons with springs beneath them are added to the bicycle saddle to reduce vibration.
Song Lixue, the inventor of the bicycle, is a carpenter by trade. It takes him five months to finishing building it after initiating the idea. Legends have it that the peach wood can frighten evil spirits and bring fortune to people, so six kinds of woods are used in the bicycle, including peach wood and pear wood.
