World most beautiful bicycles of 2015

Price: $11,000 (est)

*Bonus*: The Embacher Collection
Country of origin: Global
Details: Out of every 10,000 bicycles that convey riders down road and trail, perhaps one or two are actually transportive. When 220 such singular machines come up for sale, the world stops to gawk. Vienna-based designer Michael Embacher is auctioning a portion of his
collection, regarded as one of the world’s finest, and the catalogue reads like an encyclopedia of rolling delights. Feverish bidding is expected for a circa-1937 Schulz Funiculo (pictured), one of three in the world and the only working example, which Embacher originally purchased in France for $20,000. Suffice it to say bidders should bring their loosest wallets to Vienna’s Palais Dorotheum on 19 May.
Price: Various
