Oi: The bike bell from Knog that doesn't look like a bike bell
Just 6 days to go to support the new Oi bell from Knog. I'm not in the market for a bell at the moment (I'm partial to the Spurcycle bell anyway) but I do love the silhouette of this bell. It's almost like it's hiding in plain sight. The bell comes in several metal varieties and can be yours for as low as $19 USD. A nice little gift if you're looking for one.
Airtight Cycles: Mobius 650C Kyudo
Look at this bike man. Just look at it. So beautiful. It's made by Mathew Amonson over at Airtight Cycles in Brooklyn, NY. All bikes are custom made to order and entirely fabricated right here in Brooklyn. A wonderful fusion of track and crit frames (from their own description) and definitely a looker on the street. I want this colorway on my own bike.
Ostrich chases several cyclists down mountain road
Imagine you're just cycling with some buddies on a winding mountain road when suddenly out of nowhere a giant winged creature is chasing you at full speed. It can't fly, so all you see when you look behind you are two long legs galloping away next to you as you desperately try to steer clear of this roaming ostrich. That's exactly what's going on in this video.
