The Epitaph bike is easily one of the classiest four-wheelers I have ever laid eyes on. That may sound like a typo, but the Epitaph bike is actually designed with four low-profile wheels that fit side by side on the front and back rims of the tires.
The Epitaph bike has a classic design that makes it more like a motorcycle from the 30s or 40s than a bicycle. Perhaps because of its unique look, designer Autumshere has limited the production run of the Epitaph bike to a mere 12 units, each numbered via Roman numerals engraved onto the seats. If you want to get your hands on this bike, it's going to cost you a pretty penny, as Autmshere is pricing this 12-of-a-kind bike at $2,950. Better start saving now, biker boys and girls.
