Bicycle enthusiast/art-rocker [David Byrne](http://www.davidbyrne.com/?ref=bklyner.com) is back with new bike rack designs, this time for BAM. His [earlier city rack series](http://laughingsquid.com/the-david-byrne-bike-racks-of-new-york-city/?ref=bklyner.com) 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](http://gothamist.com/2012/08/21/david%5Fbyrne%5Funveils%5Fartsy%5Fnew%5Fbike.php?ref=bklyner.com#photo-1) 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](http://www.dero.com/?ref=bklyner.com), 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?
