Custom bike

Handcrafted bike from Cykelmageren (1000 euros)Often quoted as the best invention ever, the bicycle is a true classic. No other form of transportation has similar efficiency. But the image people have about bicycles is not that great anymore. It suffers from the existence of cheap imports falling apart rapidly on one side, and those uncool super dressed up bikes your parents buy by the two on the other side. Where is the true classic, the unbreakable one, the plain bike that your grandfather used for decades? Well, head up to the true capital of bicycling, not Amsterdam but Copenhagen and visit one of the stores of Cykelmageren.Cykelmageren was founded in the nineties by Rasmus Gjesing who was looking for sound, simple and lasting bikes. The production process is completely built-to-order. It means you decide every detail including the colour, but you have to wait around 3 weeks to have your personal bicycle produced, in their factory in the Vesterbro part of West Copenhagen. http://www.mybikes.dk/
