Edouard Sepulchre - Bike Rider Series

After studying psychology for 5 years and working the following 10 years in advertising Edouard Sepulchre decided to take a different path in 2010 to do something for himself. He started to take his passion for photography and share it in several collection of photographs and videos. This series taken at the L'Eroica vintage cycling event held every year through the roads of Tuscany has to be my favourite. I think the shots and video and not only very enjoyable but also inspiring and give a real insight into the past culture of cycling and how it has inspired this recent surge in popularity for road bikes and fixies.

Molletta BiciBands

I recently purchased some new MKS pedals for my road bike and have found that they look great but are sometimes a bit easy for your foot to slip off in wet conditions. And so it seems that Molletta Design have come up with an affordable and great looking solution. BiciBands fit easily onto your pedals giving you not only a good foot hold but also a flash of colour. They are available now via their webstore...

Rob Pollock Woodgrain Bicycles

For over 40 years Rob Pollock has been perfecting the art of faux woodgraining. Traditionally used in the restoration of classic cars and vintage hot rods, Rob has applied this technique to custom bike frames. Each frame is hand painted by Rob himself and finished with two pot epoxy resin to give a hard durable finish. The time and effort he has put in really does shine through, it is a thing of beauty, more information here....

Cicli Montante x Maserati 8CTF

Italian bicycle builder Cicli Montante has teamed up with Maserati to celebrate their 1940 Indianapolis 500 victory in their eight-cylinder 8CTF race car. The resemblance to the original vehicle is matched in both colour and design, with the highest specification parts being used to celebrate the design prowess which the car achieved. It has to be one of the best looking bikes I have seen. I especially love the half leather bar grips, although the single front disc brake sounds slightly dangerous (maybe to mirror the dangers in the original race)...

This bag is brilliant, inspired by Swiss Military Frame Bags from 100 years ago, this 21st Century model is not only practical but also would look just as at home in your hand walking into a make or break business meeting. Thoroughbred style...

Outlier Liberated Wool Peacoat

I'm a huge fan of Outlier, their recent ethic for taking classic pieces and reworking them with modern ideas really works. I am really liking the look of their new peacoat, usable yet sartorial, available now...

The Bike Shelf

This is genius, I like the fact that the Bike can be appreciated for its aesthetics as well as the purpose its designed for. Much better than locking it away in the shed...
