ARTYCAT in Enschede

Sebastian — Thu, 01 Jul 2010 22:54:21 +0000

Willem from Enschede is hosting a alleycat this weekend. He calls it “artycat” and it sounds really interesting.

The race is going to be part of my final exhibition show for art-school. The
racers will be riding around with parts of the exhibition and the winner has
to put his manifest on the wall. On the back of each manifest is an original
poem, written by me. So it’s up to chance and speed which poem is going to be
featured on my exhibition.
You must know that my work revolves around the concept “place”. The house on
the spokecards is actually a project I did. I built a small house on top of
the art-academy. A place for thinking, dreaming, being.
Just like a bike.
Because for me a bike is a destination, not just a way of transport. Being on
the bike. Riding.
Anyway, that’s the idea and that’s why I organised the alleycat.

I think this is a great concept and of course a nice plan for a saturday afternoon. So make sure to visit Enschede this weekend.

BICYCLE PORTRAITS! – support this project!

Sebastian — Mon, 14 Jun 2010 17:56:40 +0000

Bicycle Portraits is great and interesting project from south africa. a mystery for most of us and i think mostly unknown. this project gives a inside look on bicycle culture in this area of the world.
every bike pictured is unique and so is the owner. different opinions and ways of using this two wheeled thing. pretty interesting. i talked to one of the makers of the book and he seem to be a good guy with great ideas in mind. this project is def. worth a look and of course a great thing to help.
check out the following pages to get a idea about this and make sure to pleadge some books. the book yo’ll get in the end will be worth it!

irRational “Black Pack” Werkzeugtasche

Sebastian — Sat, 12 Jun 2010 16:58:14 +0000

Eine nette Überraschung hatte ich heute im Briefkasten. Robert von irRational hat mir sein neuestes Produkt geschickt. Es handelt sich um eine kleine Werkzeugtasche aus Cordura mit Klettverschluss. Die irRational Sachen werden alle per Hand in Hamburg hergestellt. Die Qualität ist super und das “Black Pack” wird auf jeden Fall in meine Tasche wandern.
Schaut mal auf die irRational Seite, dort könnt ihr die Sachen erwerben. Es gibt übrigens auch eine schöne Kollaboration mit Suicycle die es aber nur direkt im Laden zu kaufen gibt.

CINELLI alter RE-issue soon?!?!?

Sebastian — Thu, 10 Jun 2010 11:54:13 +0000

New Cinelli Alter!, originally uploaded by Orange Twizzle Bikes.

I really dig this old and edgy stem. It looks like architecture, not really a bike part, but a piece of art.
Sadly those beauties are pretty rare, especially in shorter versions. So Cinelli decided to re-issue it and fit it a 1-1/8th steerer tubes. Pretty nice, was waiting for this. Sadly at the moment it is only announced that it will fit oversized bars, hopefully they will release a 25,4 or 26mm version aswell.
