BIKE DESIGNERS MEETING vol.1: Chu-Rin Compe.  Chu-rin Compe was held all through this meeting and it was the program that everyone became bike designers. At the entrance we gave voting papers and number cards to each visitors. Those who brought their bikes had to put the number card on them and display them wherever they want. Displaying meant an entry to Chu-rin Compe. All visitors became exhibitors and judges as bikedesiners. The rate of collection was 26% and the vote was 328 except blanks. We think this result is good enough. Thank you for joining Chu-rin Compe. * Detailed of Chu-rin Compe is available here: BIKE FUN PROJECT |

Vote to the bike that tempts you to get right now. Bikes of high quality and delicate, and unique bikes got many votes, however ones that had been displayed through the meeting in few days got the major votes. Pink Griffon got major votes in one day of Owners meeting and got the second prize.
All the best bikes fit the atmosphere of the meeting place. |

Vote to the bike that you expect its progress in 10 years, or you look
forward to looking it again when you look back the history of bikes from
the future. Differ from the bikes that you want, voted to the interests,
or the questionnaire was too vague. However, attractive bikes got major
votes in this category.

Voted to the bike you want to save the stamp of its figure.
The first (ZOX) and the second (VIEWPOINT) got the major votes. Both had good figure. We finally put China ink on ZOX and stamp it on a cloth. It was quite different from dead fish stamp and we had planed to make the fake one by digital process. Mr. OKI@URAWA, the owner of ZOX allowed us to make a real stamp and we did it! Thanks to Mr. OKI@URAWA and cooperators.  See how we made it at Cycle Show in 2004. Many of visitors helped us to complete it. Regrettably, it was ruined by a passing rain in the next morning. Off course we will keep this stamp with care and it is very rare in the history of bikes. |

and second bikes were popular. However we didn't know which one was selected

please let us know. Thank you.
