New Byrne Bike Racks at BAM

Bicycle enthusiast/art-rocker David Byrne is back with new bike rack designs, this time for BAM. His earlier city rack series featured outlines of people, animals, and familiar objects such as cars and guitars. The new series is made of letters of the alphabet (but not all of them).

As Gothamist quotes Byrne:

a few very basic shapes—a semi circle, a line, and a V shape—would allow one to make a good percentage of the letters of our alphabet. With help and advice from Dero Bike Racks, we figured out how these components could be easily and quickly swapped out to spell different words.

The words Byrne chose — supposedly purely for looks — are “PinK cRown” and “micRo liP.” Even without a full alphabet, the possibilities are tantalizing. What would you spell?
