#video | 8bar Adventures - Morocco - High Atlas

8bar love to ride their bikes ourselves and go on trips that deviate somewhat from the average.

Starting in 2012 by crossing the Alps with their fixed-gear bikes, to taking a trip from Berlin to Prague without the help of a map with their Singlespeed Cyclocross bikes in 2013 and climbing the Schneekoppe, the highest peak of the Giant Mountains in Poland, in 2014 with their road bikes.

This time they decided on Africa, the Atlas Mountains in the middle of Morocco to be more precise, as their next destination. The Atlas forms a striking divided line between the relatively humid climate in the far north of Maghreb to the extremely dry Sahara.

A really nice video of this adventure... Hope you like it!

More info in their site.

#video | 8bar Adventures - Schneekoppe

Hi riders!

Today we bring you a video from 8bar bikes, it's really beautiful, not about fixies, but...amazing!

Max and Stefan were looking for an adventure not too far away from Berlin, which they can do with their 8bar KRONPRINZ road bikes. So they decided to climb the Schneekoppe which was the highest elevation close by. Unfortunately there is only a ten kilometer long cobbled road in a really bad condition leading until the peak. It is said to be doable with Mountainbikes only...

Ucon x 8bar | The 'federleicht’ bike collaboration

Ucon and 8bar are two Berlin based brands who teamed up for this bike collaboration. They worked on this project together for the last year to make something special happen.

'Stefan' the founder of 8bar is a true bicycle enthusiast and is also competing in races for over 15 years now. Together with a collective of cycle-crazy friends, he brought his vision to life to establish a bicycle company. 8bar is never pre-made or identical, each bike is a unique, co-created between 8bar and it’s owner-to-be. 8bar captures the progressive, fun and easy-going spirit of Berlin and its collaborative energy.

Ucon established their opening collection in the early summer of 2001. Founders Jochen and Martin came with a vision to develop a lifestyle brand anchored by creativity, quality tailoring, innovative appliqués and ethical production. With a passion for the work of talented artists and the design community surrounding them, Jochen and Martin embraced collaborations to build a creative environment for the brand.

Like you will see in this clip right here Ucon and 8bar also involved two more creative heads from Berlin. One of them is 'Toons', a Berlin famous painting artists and a true fan of the whole bike culture since he was a small boy. He handpainted the frame and brought their vision of the "feathering-design" into real life. Then there is the product-designer and illustrator 'Stulle' from Matzmate who did an amazing job customizing the bike saddle, foot straps and handlebar.
