Lowrider Love


Looks like I've always had a soft spot for cool bikes. My mum found this photo of me aged three chillin' on a lowrider. Check out the massive sissy bar and rear-view mirror. Love, B

Bicycle theft time lapse



We love this urban experiment. Get a bicycle, chain it to a post in New York and take a photo every day for a year to see how long it will last.

We're actually surprised how long it lasted, it wasn't until day 160 that someone took the water bottle. Maybe we should conduct a similar experiment, I wonder how long a beach cruiser bicycle would last in Sydney...

VELO CHIC


On our travels, we loved the diversity of people on bikes, especially in Asian countries where the number of bike riders eclipses the number of riders in Australia or other western countries. One of Bondi Beach Cruisers goal is to give everyone the opportunity to enjoy life through bicycles.
 
That's why we love this story of designer Guo-Shiung Hung who has designed a bike Velo Chic based on his research that "western country's (Australia for example) bicycle industry trends is to focus on the existing bicycle ignoring the need for non riders" through this notion he focused on female users that compared to male only makes up 25% of bicycle commuters and designed a female friendly bike.
