The finalists of the CityRacks Design Competition to design bike parking furniture for New York have been announced. We believe that Andrew Lang and Harry Dobbs ‘I ♥ NY’ entry should win as it encourages the user to lock their frame and both wheels in a similar fashion to our own caMden (M-Stand) stand. The stand also has a great New York feel, it is obviously influenced by the iconic I ♥ NY logo.
