Cyclepedia: A Century of Iconic Bicycle Design

There is a short post about the book 'Cyclepedia: A Century of Iconic Bicycle Design' on Core77 this morning.

It's technically the second volume showcasing 100  of Michael Embacher's personal bicycle collection.

Quite a collection too, exotic, rare and exquisite.  Everyone a gem. 

Or as Sir Paul Smith would put it:

I can absolutely identify with the amazing passion and collection of Michael Embacher. WHAT A COLLECTION... ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC! All shapes, sizes and qualities. To be honest it’s just better to look at the book because words cannot describe these terrific cycles
