On one of my trips through Germany, I had the chance to meet Janis after spotting one of his bikes at Bespoked Dresden 25. Based in the Northern Alps, near the border between Germany and Austria…

The long-awaited LOW collection review is finally here! I met up with David (@afe_hdy1016) back in October, and although this story had to be split into two parts, I’m excited to share what is very likely the one and only fully matching LOW// collection…

Let me be very clear: this is my number one, absolute favorite build from Bespoked Dresden. Funky, experimental, raw, but always built with intent…

This week, we’re featuring another French frame builder with Pierre from Bordure Cycles. Based in Épernay, in the northeast of France, Bordure is still a relatively young brand…

Speaking from a purely personal point of view, I’ve always felt that a front rack or basket simply looks better than anything rear-mounted. That said, I’ve usually ended up filling…

During my many laps around the show floor at Bespoked Dresden this year, I naturally gravitated toward the brands I already knew, totally biased, subjective…

Big-tire gravel bikes were definitely the trend at Bespoked Dresden this year, but this custom Curve GMX+ that Jimmy let me shoot was in a category of its own. This expedition machine…

When you think about framebuilding, Colombia isn’t exactly the first place your mind wanders to. But Scarab has been crafting beautiful bikes since 2019, and today we’re looking at Logan’s personal build, dressed in the truly stunning “Tropical Cliché” paint job…

Here is a little story for you! When I arrived at Bespoked Dresden this year, I had only one thing in mind… How in the world was I going to be a able to shoot all of these bikes, with the gloomy weather…

Who doesn’t love a good basket?! Personally, I’m a big fan of the look a basket brings to any bike, especially when it’s on an overbuilt frame like this one. That was exactly the vibe behind an article I wrote over two years ago…

For most cyclists, the search for the perfect bike is a familiar obsession. I’ll admit, I’m usually the first one hunting for the “next” thing, and I fall way too often for the famous N+1 rule: the correct number of bikes to own is always one more than you currently have.

I think everyone’s waited long enough for a full reveal of what I’ve decided to dub “The Weis Beach Ripper”, simply because riding along the sea is probably what I’ve done most with this bike so far…

The Desertus Bikus is an ultradistance race I’ve been more or less involved with over the past few years. The first time I saw the start, it was hosted at the courier company

Let me start with this: What happens when a frame builder crafts a bike for himself? A show bike of course, but also a machine built to ride, travel, and showcase his work everywhere he goes…

You already know what time it is! Another Bike Lore, another collection of cool bike builds I’ve been hunting around the event. And this time we truly have a bit of everything: Hand made gravel, cargo bike prototype, vintage mtb…

Bike Lore Hakushu was about a month ago, and as usual, it was filled with good bikes, fun people, and the great racing spirit that makes this event so popular. It’s also probably the only place where you can catch your own fish, grill it, and eat it with ice cream…
