THE PERFECT ATHLETE

Via Milano Fixed.

"LE CORNOUILLER"

Wooden gudgeon (or plug) was put inside of the headtube to support the tube. It was believed that if the tube cracks, gudgeon would save the cyclists life. Mainly this was made because some of the races in France included stages with cobblestone roads. Pic taken from "Tidens Cykelbok - En handbok föt alla sorters cyklister". Thanks to 2Fresh.

STYLISH WAY TO HANG YOUR BIKES #4

Still searching for the best and most stylish way to hang my bikes on my hall wall. At the moment I have Xtreme Multiflex.

Hangs two track bikes without any problems, but it´s not the most stylish one. As you may seen there´s not much options but casually, something new pops out from the industrial design field. Like this from The Project Modern.
