#newBike | Red Hook Crit Milano Specialized by Erik Nohlin designer

Have you been in the past Red Hook Crit Milano? Maybe you saw this amazing bike... here you have the story... so beautiful...



Milan is more than just the location for Red Hook Crit: Milano No.7, it’s an inspirational place for designers of all walks of life. Fashion, architecture, art—you name it, it’s there. But as far as designer Erik Nohlin’s concerned, the best thing to come out of that fair city is not Prada, Armani, Dolce & Gabbana, or Kartell, it’s Ettore Sottsass, “the only real punk rocker the field of design has ever had.” Never heard of Sottsass? Prepare to take your lesson, because to get to the soul of Nohlin’s Red Hook Crit Team Allez-Allez collection, you must first meet the man who stoked that fire.

About Wingedstore Official Cinelli Store

HISTORY
In the 80s and 90s Cinelli owned and operated a series of cycling stores under the name ‘Gran Ciclismo’ based in Milan. These stores, originally conceived by Antonio Colombo, were revolutionary and a forerunner in what would eventually become high-end sports retail. The cutting edge ‘Concept Store’ format dedicated almost entirely to a single brand was unheard of at the time. Winged Store is the evolution of this idea, a single point of reference in a truly expressive environment available for the world to experience.
MISSION
Our mission is to spread the spirit of Cinelli. Brought to life by Cino Cinelli in 1948 and continued by Antonio Colombo when he took the reins in 1978 and built a cult icon for generations of cyclists all over the world. We are enthusiastically dedicated to keeping alive the heritage of the Cinelli and Columbus trademarks, their beauty and value for money. We want their names and logos to endure, and we want as wide an audience as possible to appreciate them, and to enjoy the Cinelli experience for now, and for the future.

Prism Cycles fixie/single speed: Unboxing & Assembling (1st part)

One day you see a bike in the street, and you think...mmm I want one like this!...you search in Internet, write in Google: "fixed gear shop"... but you don't know which to choose! Well, today we're going to try to help you,  our friends from Prism Cycles (located in Ireland but with worldwide shipping) has sent us a bike designed by ourselves ... yes, yes, by ourselves! On their website you can use a simulator and choose the color of various parts of your bicycle: chain, frame, wheels, tires, saddle, grips ...
and this has been our experience, we hope you will help!

When you visit theis "Build your own" site in their site http://prismcycles.com/ you configure your desired bike as you can see in the next image...

Our future bike in"Build your own"
As you can see, you can choose: frame colour, rear and front wheel color, rear and front tyre color, crank colour, saddle colour, grip colour and saddle post and stem colour. Well, you see in the image our design...yes, I know, it's too much multicolored but the riders who will use it wants a crazy bike!

After this, you order the bike, via Paypal, about 430€, and you will receive it before 2 weeks.
We received a box like you can see in the image with the 80% of the bike assembled, you only have to fit front wheel, saddle and post, pedals and the hand bar previously assembled with front and rear brakes and grips, it's really easy to assembly all, you don't need to be an expert!







In next post, we will review all the components in this Prism Cycles bike! As you can see our model is a single speed bike, but it comes with flip/flop rear wheel, and you can choose between fixed gear/fixie or single speed, it's easy to change, you only need to disassemble it and turn the wheel.
