Fifo x PedalGents

March 31st, 2010

We let the cat out of the package. And what a gorgeous on it is! Fifocycle made these beautiful hats out of some of our drawings. Silkscreen prints on a nice selection of fabrics. The blue / white side represents our hometown, the brown one the gentleman inside of us. The leather brim sure is a shining feature. Fiona sewed a lot of love and good vibes in every detail!

Chain-L N°5

March 28th, 2010

Antonello from Cinelli gave us this really nice chain oil (huile de chaine), after such a long winter exactly what our bikes need. Apart from the great packaging and design, its also one of the best and most used chain lubes out there.

New Bike!!!

March 28th, 2010

Just got my new Cinelli Vigorelli Frameset and a few parts. Its my first aluminum track bike. I’m really curious about how stiff and responsive it really feels on the street. I’ll make a complete bikecheck of the build very soon. Thanks to Antonello for hooking me up.

Look What The Postman Brought

This awesome package was in my mailbox yesterday. Yes, it really is wrapped in PedalGents packing paper. How cool’s that?!

Cool Trick

Saw that sticker pop up on the internet recently. Pascal made them about a year ago and gave it out to friends. They are all gone by now. Maybe we’ll do something in this vein again at some point…

Our TB Table

Our goods at sundays Teilchenbeschleuniger. Some parts are sold others are still for sale. Overall a lot of bike stuff, a lot of bike nerds and a strange but somehow funny bike builders contest.

Stems II

Why thank you for the flowers Frank, and since you so kindly posted the painting you own,
I’ll post some more pictures of some of the other stem-paintings:

There are more of them, and they are for sale! So when you order your Pedal Gents Shirt,
why not save on shipping costs and buy a painting as well?

Stems

March 7th, 2010

This post has long been overdue. Our very own Sebastian made a series of stems for the Bicycle Film Festival 09. 12 different ones, all oil on canvas. Lucky me, I received the thomson, the stem I ride. It’s painted so nicely and detailed, that I often have to check whether my stem is still on my bike or at the wall!

The 242 Crew from Lausanne made an awesome board and t-shirt. Designed by Lowrider.

The bag is also great, not sure if it’s available at the 242 online shop. Thanks Jan.
