Are You Eco And You Know It? Introducing a Portable Planter for your Bike

posted by Saris - March 28, 2012 - 10am EDT

This adorable planter, overflowing with succulents, attaches to your bike with an elastic nylon cord and will fit snugly on all but the widest of aero seat tubes.

The planter is created digitally with modeling software and is then 3d printed out of nylon, hand dyed, and then sealed. Planters are available in red, orange, sunshine yellow, and cobalt blue. MSRP is $45 USD.

No word on weight…

The planter works best with a clipping from a succulent that has been allowed to take root or a large air plant.

 While the planters seat tube placement appears lovely in photographs, in that position, I’d always fear inadvertently destroying my little plant buddy. With a wider elastic band it would make a distinctive head tube badge.

The dimensions are: 2.3” tall, 1.4” wide, and 1” deep.

Weighs too much. Would be cool to stick two co2 canisters in though~

I’ll wait for the Di2 electronic version with rechargeable batteries that automatically waters the plant.
