Unfortunately, they include the 1960's Spacelander bicycle as an example
of good design! See

I took one for a brief test ride many years ago. MoMA's standards are
certainly far different from mine. It's hard to imagine a heavier,
clumsier rattletrap of a bike. Heck, I'd prefer that Fiat 500!
But then, the rest of the exhibition seems to glorify the 1950s and
1960s as an era of "good design." Weird.
As you alluded in your post title, it's the Museum Of Modern ART, not the
Museum Of Excellent Engineering.
