Designing your own bike for the People's Bike Ghetto Fabulous Fixie Competition, and you walk away with at least two things: a cool new set of wheels for spring, and bragging rights. Should you win, with the most ghetto-and-fabulous (cheap and sexy and functional) bike entered in the contest, you also get a limited edition ONEWAY Shanghai Alleycat Messenger Bag, pictured above.

3) Post photos and documentation (price breakdown, photos, concept blurb, etc.) on People's Bike, here
