VELLO bike

Valentin Vodev

26.9.–5.10.2014

VELLO bicycle models are hand-made, lightweight, high-end folding bikes especially developed for urban mobility. VELLO not only avails of the best features of a racing, city and folding bike, but new functions have been integrated as well in order to cope with the demands of the urban lifestyle. The specially developed folding mechanism combined with the magnetic shock absorber ensures that the rear wheel can be brought forward with a simple rotary movement, thus enabling the owner to push the bike for example into a narrow lift or into the underground. The front and rear lights are integrated into the frame and the foldable mudguards protect clothing in all weathers.
The project was supported by aws Impulse.
