Braided Bike Lock — Bicycles Written by Simon on January 30, 2012. Permalink These braided bike locks were my absolute favorite product at Portland’s Bike Craft event last month. Beautiful hand-crafted design meets utiliarian function in this bike lock that will keep your bike secure and sartorial points up for you style-conscious urban riders. Sorry, the website is in Japanese and I really couldn’t fill you in on many more details.
Deaf Pigeon | Reader’s Bikes Galore! Recently we’ve had a whole load of reader’s bike submissions. Thank you to everyone who has submitted them to us. We love looking at all the different types of bikes people are riding who read our blog. Please keep sending them in to us… they’ll all go onto the site. Head on over to the Bikes page to have a look. Deaf Pigeon | Biascagne Cicli & Riccardo Guasco Fixed Gear The Italian company Biascagne Cicli has teamed up with artist Riccardo Guasco to create this one-of-a-kind bike. It’s on sale for €1,222 and the proceeds are going to a charity that provides funding for research into child lukemia. Unfortunately their website is in Italian (which Google Translate seems to understand even less than I do) so I can’t decipher what all of the components are, so any Italian speakers should go check it out and let everyone know with a comment! Any takers? Click through to see more pictures
rro Pista I love getting emails with new companies showing me what they’re producing and when i received one from Corro, i was definitely interested. Corro are based in Chile and create handmade cycling accessories, bags and other things. From what i’ve seen so far they’ve got a lovely rolltop bag, a wallet, some straps and some t-shirts which all look pretty sweet! I’m in the market for a rolltop at the moment and i’m pretty impressed with this one. They haven’t got their site sorted at the moment but it says that it’ll be coming soon… you can see that here. Looking forward to seeing what they come out with.
