We asked our readers to nominate their favorite bike-themed items in the comments of this post. Out of all the competition, WearableByDesign with her Harley Chic necklace garnered the most votes. Gears are hot — there's no denying the Steampunk aesthetic that unites those fueled by gasoline with those powered by their own two feet. Congratulations, WearableByDesign! This impressive hand-carved piece is one-of-a-kind.
Look for the winner, along with some of the top picks, featured in the Members' Choice Gift Guide. If you have a biker or cyclist in your life, send them here!
Want to get involved in next week's round? We are looking for Etsy's best "Fresh Shops" — shops under three months old that are ripe for being discovered. Know of a new great shop that has few or no sales? Paste links to your nominations in the comments below.
