I think the silverplated one is prettier, but it costs more.

That bicycle menorah is awesome. Some of the others were very beautiful, and very creative. The silver one does look a little more classy, I guess. Both are cool.
Can't say you weren't thinking ahead ;)
Somehow I was thinking a menorah you put on your bike. Would be so difficult to keep lit.
I like the silver plated one--but the drivetrain's on the WRONG SIDE :D !

I kind of wonder if that photograph wasn't reversed, because the painted version shows the drivetrain on the correct side.
SB - there are electric Menorah, I bet one could hook up a battery powerd Menorah on the bike... Hmmmm, could be fun!
Could be, although I think that the photo would have to have been taken with a non-digital camera. Any photographers out there who would know?
Unless they flipped the photo deliberately?
But the silverplated version is very, very pretty.

I asked Susan O if TE would carry a bike menorah (they already carry bike xmas tree ornaments). If TE gets the silverplated one, I'll buy it; whether or not the drivetrain is on the correct side! (the silver one is so pretty, and I love that the shifters are on the downtube.)
Actually, if TE gets any bike menorah at all, I'll buy it.

Thank you SB, now I have to clean off my monitor (TJ's lemonade with ginger).Quote:

I thinking the wreath on the front of the bike, like trucks do would be easier, kinda nondenominational....but less aero.
I have one menorah but had never given much thought about having more than one....now, hmmmm.
Now I have this mental picture of a large group of Jewish cyclists, some very Orthodox, in a big ride, each with their bike menorah. Very pretty.
maybe we could get this group to do it,

Wish they would have a new CC and ride through here!
Cool in the extreme; but I would have put the shamash at the front (not in the middle).
You could ride around with one of those oil ones in an "aquarium", but you would have to be a track cyclist 'cos any little bump would spill the oil. Or maybe you could use "tea-lights"; also in aforementioned aquarium box.
Or you could just set it *on* your bike on the porch.
Margo, You are in the position to organize it for next holiday season. :D
No, I'm just an amateur theologian. Or should that be dillettante?
