These Cooper Bikes are not in any way related to the MINI car brand.elantra wrote:The bikes being pedaled by Mini Cooper Motors are a much more serious effort than most other motoring forays into the bike market.
They are already in the showrooms here (brisbane) and they are very nice bikes, in the retro groove.
They use Reynolds 520 or 531 frames.
Obviously this is more a marketing exercise than a serious push into the bike market, but I for one would not say no to one of these little beauties in my garage.

Mike Cooper, the son of John Cooper of Mini Cooper fame, is behind the bikes.
