The Leo Brutal Motorcycle workshop, otherwise known as LBM showcases the Nu'Clear motorcycle that was designed by Mikhail Smolyanov. It has an unusual look, which is an entirely clear and functional bike concept made from bulletproof glass materials.
Additionally, it also has glass in the load-bearing sections of the bike as well, continuing to the transparent fuel tank that is on the top and filled with ethanol, which is what the bike runs on. The style influence stems from Atompunk themes that were prominent during the 50s and 60s and the idea of futuristic visuals at the time. The designer also adds a boxer engine that can be seen along the two sides complete with batteries in a nuclear reactor, which resulted in its namesake.
