#video | Streets of Chrome: Damian Riehl

Hi riders!

Today we bring you the last video from Chrome Industries "Streets of Chrome: Damian Riehl". Shot in the span of one day, the video features Chrome Familia member and Portland, Oregon, native, Damian Riehl.

Damian has been working as a professional messenger for twenty years and just celebrated his 40th Birthday.

Having been introduced to a love for photography through skateboarding and bikes in the late 80s and early 90s, Damian turned to the medium to capture and interpret his day to day life shortly after first becoming a messenger.

Today, Damian spends much of his time documenting the changing landscape of his Native Portland. As more and more people flood to the area, he’s worried about some of the changes that seem permanent and uses his camera to freeze time and preserve the Portland he’s known for his four decades.

#newBrand | Brava Bikes, with Chile with love...

Hi riders!

Today, friday is a good day to show you a new brand of fixie bikes, Brava Bikes from Chile!

Brava is a young and independent brand whose team has great passion for cycling and the conviction that our vision for an urban bicycle can be made reality based on the pillars of design, quality, and technology. That is what we try to put into each one of our models.

Everyone at Brava Bikes loves classic bikes for their style, simplicity, and functionality. We think that the bike is a magnificent machine, and even a work of art. Our passion for design and our enthusiasm for this mode of transit is what pushed us to create a product that would resonate with the soul of a classic bike’s minimalist design, but with the materials and technology available today. We are sure that those interested in our brand are people who appreciate the attention to detail and subtlety that are part of all the elements of our models.
