You could build the amplifier circuitry into the bike, the
pedalling to power a generator and like that. The only plucking I
ever did on a bike was sticking on cardboard and plastic bits to
the forks to twang the spokes and make like a motorbike before I
was allowed to get one...
Now there is an idea... put in some subsidiary guitar string
"spokes", the tension of which could be adjusted at the
handlebars. The Bicycle Guitar. A more unified concept.
