You KNOW I love all things related to bikes. Although I never have to carry my bike around, THIS seems like an efficient, low tech gadget!
Bicycle Frame Handle
Finding accessories for your bike that are as gorgeous as they are functional is often easier said than done. You don’t pour your blood, sweat and tears into your whip to have it look like a piece of shit, so the aftermarket stuff you put on it has to be as durable and good looking as the canvas itself–without destroying it’s lines. The Bicycle Frame Handle is another one of those Kickstarter projects that’s so deceptively simple it’s genius. One leather handle that buckles to your down tube and seat tube to make carrying your bike as easy as it is to ride it. Strap on one of the Frame Handles in honey, dark brown or black and never again be bothered by your bike’s biggest weakness next to potholes… stairs. $30+
