He designed and made the wood fenders himself. I recognize symbols for Scotland and England on the head tube, but the top one is cut off in the photo. Enlarged, it appears to be a raptor-type bird in flight. The top tube has what seems to be a statement in Irish or Scottish Gaelic. Whatever all this is, he is obviously proud of his heritage.

It turns out that Spectrum, a custom shop in the US, is closing after its current orders are complete. www.bicycling.com/news/a26576578/spectrum-cycles-closing

Wow! Wooden fenders - very original!
In times when everything has to weighs lighter, it's amazing.

He doesn't seem to worry about weight, there are extra things on his bike. (Three water bottles!)

Gewiss, zwei Scheinwerfer sind besser als nur einer. Aber reicht die Leistung des Dynamos aus? Der Dynamo ist ja leider auf dem Foto nicht zu erkennen ...

Diane Putnam club has replied to Alltagsradler Teltow
I can't answer that question, because I would not know a dynamo if I saw one! However, he is an engineer, so I am confident that he had that worked out. ;-b
