I really dig the "Lightning bolt" front wheel spokes, but they strongly contrast with the spokeless rear wheel. I couldn't help but laugh aloud when I read your "...Lean over and crash" statement. In the early 1960s MIT tried to develop an "URB" which stood for "Un-Rideable Bike." After months of fidgeting and figuring they discovered that moving the front wheel's center of balance off by four inches made the typical "Diamond Frame" bicycle topple to the ground every time. By the way... Had you ever seen the Bowden Spacelander? Not truly unridable, but it was a concept of "Streamlining" taken to a standard bicycle in the late 1950s. The bikes are very rare now because their fiberglass shells have become very brittle over time, and have cracked to pieces. With today's modern composites though...
