Cannondale og JunkFood Clothing er gået sammen om at designe to unikke cykler for Antenna Magazine’s kommende ReMix konkurrance. ReMix Lab er en festival for kunst, musik, mode og film der foregår i New York, Las Vegas, Chicago, Miami og Los Angeles – fra den 19 oktober til 11 december.
Cannondale og JunkFood Clothing vil med denne særlige udgave af Bad Boy cyklen give begrebet Urban biking en ny vinkel med nye farver og sjovt tilbehør.
De to firmaer siger med egne ord:
“Our inspiration came from the name Bad Boy,” said Mike Palermo, Creative Director, Junk Food Clothing. “The vintage motorcycle clubs were always the original ‘Bad Boys’ so we figured what better way to start than to create the Bad Boy Riders cycle club? From there, we were able to pull a stripped back vintage color palette and add amazing custom vintage leather, a Junk Food tool bag and a frame bag.”
“Cannondale is all about advancing the sport of cycling and creating bikes with attitude. Bikes can be a reflection of a riders personality and the Bad Boy is the ultimate under-the-radar statement bike,” said Bob Burbank, General Manager, Cannondale Bicycles. “We knew that Junk Food Clothing would be the perfect partner to create a new version of this sleek and modern looking bike for Antenna’s ReMix Lab.”
Cykelportalen fik lov at låne en prototype af Bad Boy cyklen til en test i forbindelse med Eurobike i 2009. Du kan læse testen her. Vi var meget begejstrede og cyklen har siden dannet skole for en hel hær af “Urban” cykler, både Cannondale og andre konkurrerende firmaer.
De to Cannondale/JunkFood cykler bliver ikke sat til salg, men givet bort i forbindelse med konkurrencer under festivalen i de fem amerikanske storbyer.
