The $12,000 steel commuter bike…
Posted: February 4th, 2008 by PinchieA few months ago, Chanel announced that they’re rolling out a boutique city cruiser, which looks pretty much like any other neo-Dutch knockoff.
With a price-tag of $12,000, I couldn’t help wondering what type of person would drop that kind of dough on a bicycle that is the equivalent of a $100 gourmet hamburger.
Now I have my answer: Courtney Cox has bought one as a gift to her good friend Jennifer Aniston.
Just when you think humanity has reached the peak of vanity and acquisitiveness, a celebrity proves you can go even further.

This bugged me so much I had to print out a pic of the bike and shred it. Seriously. The waste of one sheet of paper was worth the bit of frustration that was released.

Garro had a good comment on this kind of stuff in his Coconino blog when prepping for the NAHBS.
