I think this is a pretty cool looking clock. It is a metal frameed clock in the shape of a vintage bicycle. It is fairly lightweight for being mostly made of metal. I am going to guess about 2 pounds.
This clock seems to be well constructed. The welds seem to be decent in the manner that you do not have to worry about them popping under light pressure. The only part of this bicycle replica would be the chain since it is a fairly thin metal. Mine was slightly bent out of form when I got in with the sprocket of the chain area and it was very simple to press it back into place. The frame is made with a pretty good sized guage of metal and appears that it would be really difficult to bend.
The clock are in the front wheel is the a neat addition. It would have been a cool piece without the clock in it. Everyone who has seen this bicycle has brought to my attention on how neat the design stands out. Now for the clock there is a plastic back cover that snaps on and off. Very simple to remove and reattach. Once it is open you can see the clock structure and where to insert the battery. It requries a single AA battery to power it. Snap it in place, adjust to the current time, place the back cover on, and then set it where you want to display. Personally I have mine on my desk so it can be a conversation starters which makes it a great tool. The clock is a really quiet smooth motion clock. It is not the standard tick, tick, tick noise from most of these clocks with the second hand bouncing as it is tracking around the face. The face cover of the clock is plastic and makes it really easy to keep cleaned.
If you are looking for a great clock with a unique design, this is one very cool clock to consider. It is very durable, easy to set up, and a great converstation piece. I would like to thank Ocean Tailer and affiliates for sending me this very cool clock to try out and share my opinion.
