A PASSION FOR CYCLING AND DESIGN
The way we see it, riding a bike is one of the rare opportunities adults have to flaunt their own style.
Cycling has an incredible heritage of great design to draw from, but to keep it fresh we continue to push the edge in order to create original, trend-setting kit.
our process
All of our designs are created in-house. Each pattern begins as a series of hand-drawn sketches, which we then bring into the computer to refine and rework. The process is iterative; we’ll go through countless versions until, finally, the image staring back at us captures some of the feeling we set out to create.
First Step
Grab a pencil. Not because it's quaint, but because it forces you to think. The friction fires up the brain.
Second Step
On the computer, we can draw shapes, shift colors, and compose at speed. Rough forms evolve into structured ideas as we work to match the design to the intent of the sketch.
Third step
Versions pile up. A lot of them are terrible. Some are close. None of them nail it. But one misses just enough in the right way, and that’s the one we go with.
The passion doesn’t stop at the surface design. We are obsessive about cut patterns, fabrics, pads and fit. Our designs are inspired and created in the most dynamic city in the world. Living and designing in the East Village of New York City we’ve hand picked luxury Italian fabrics for the highest performance and produce in the rich cycling community of Tuscany.
Made In Italy
Our manufacturing partners in Tuscany are renowned in the region for producing kits for pro and semi-pro teams for over forty years. We are excited to introduce these superbly crafted kits from the mecca of cycling and fashion.
