Colby Higgins is a design student in Boston, and Train Wreck is his brainchild: just like the name suggests it, we're dealing with an amazing steam engine bike concept.
It's really hard to point out exactly what we love most about Colby's Train Wreck. We took turns in looking at these pics and agreed that the riding position is as comfortable as any modern chopper could ever dream of. The pulled back handles and the forward pegs account for a nice stance: have it mixed with the low profile and you've got a classic machine!

Funny thing thinking about riding a bike powered by a steam engine in the blistering summer sun: what would one hate more? The burning, unforgiving sun rays, or the fiery stove between the legs? Hard to tell, and anyway, we're ever so glad we won't have to find out.

As for the whole idea and the amazing details Colby took care of when designing the Train Wreck... sir, you're awesome! Add a mohawk and we've got a proper steampunk crotch-rocket. Or crotch-stove, if anything.
