A child's bicycle blinged up on a turning display stand that rotates the bike for viewing. The bicycle is sparkling lavender, gray, and silver with exquisite patterns etched into the metal. It looks like a piece of jewelry you can ride. Even the spokes glisten. It's a fully functional and rideable bike, but is primarily intended for show as a displayed art-bike.

   More photos from Shiny Side Up, an annual bicycle and car show in San Jose, CA.

   The show features a stunning collection of exotic and unusual bicycles from across Northern California. Most of the bikes are "cruiser bikes" that have low frame clearances and are meant for low and slow rolling. Enthusiasts frequently get together for social rides where it's more about the journey than the destination or how fast you get there.

   Most if not all of the bikes on display are rideable, but a good number are clearly intended to be art-bikes for display purposes only.

   These photos are from the 23rd running on Sunday, July 19, 2026.
