Ben Wilson’s Precious Bicycle

As bicycles go, the swarovski encrusted one from designer Ben Wilson is possibly the most precious of them all. Having used more than 110,000 crystals to completely cover this low rider. Wilson was not trying to break records with his blinged out bicycle, rather the aim was to showcase the bicycle as a valuable work of art.

Wilson is well known for creating such art pieces and his client list includes Levi’s , Sony, Adidas and Stüssy. The bicycle is on display at the Victoria and Albert Museum in England until January 2012. While Wilson was not trying to set any records , we are sure he has unqittingly set the one for the most blinged out bicycle on the planet.
