Happy birthday to us!

Our store’s second birthday is coming up, which means this blog is also 2 years old! That’s a long time in the blogosphere. 

This Candy Bike designed by art student Britta Hope would be perfect for our birthday party.

How do you store your bike?

If your ride is as colourful as this beach cruiser, why not hang it on the wall as art?

Sanomagic Wooden Bicycle

Sueshiro Sana is a ninth-generation Japanese shipwright who produces beautifully hand-crafted wooden bikes out of mahogany. 

According to Sana, the bike’s structure is actually improved by the mahogany – the wood lends flex and responsiveness in a way no metal frame ever could, giving riders an increased sense of control. The bike also weighs only 8kg.

A number of his bikes have actually been raced professionally, through all terrains and weather types. Amazing!

Missoni and Target in the US collaborated on the bright Missoni Bicycle. We love the distinctive Missoni pattern on the frame, skirt guard and chain guard.
