I parsed it as (open source bike) comparison and review, not as (open source)(bike comparison and review).

I did this as well and was rather disappointed with the reality.

I wonder if there are enough open source bikes for a worthwhile comparison.

Clearly we need to make some. There was that cardboard bike guy?... But I think that flopped. The future is yours!

What materials could we use to prototype? Cheap materials and rapid construction should probably take precedent, to ensure speedy iterations by a large number of people.

Love and Richard Stallman's facial hair, just like all the best open source projects.

Same here, I thought it was going to be "open source" as in part lists that people had used to build their own bikes.

The site still looks useful and probably will be even more so when there's more bikes to choose from.
