The Mountain Bike As Musical Instrument(s)

You gotta love a guy who takes breaks from work by riding his bike around his dope modernist living room, but even more who turns his Specialized into a percussionist palette. WhiteNoise Lab, a.k.a. Roger Lima, put together this beatboxish soundtrack using nothing but his FSR, some drumsticks, and a cardboard box.

Just one thing, Rog…that bike’s looking a little too clean. Maybe your next project can include the sounds of trail, bump rattles, and mud splattering onto the frame…

Via.
