Bring Your Bike Indoors and Make It a Stylish Part of Your Home

- Caitlin Clements

SOME OF THE SMARTEST DESIGN around at the moment can be found on products for cyclists. The bikes themselves are ever more sleek and lightweight, and all the peripherals – backpacks, helmets, even T-shirts and bells – have an edge that makes them desirable. Whether this is down to the fact that so many designers are mad keen bike riders themselves, or simply because there’s something so effortlessly cool about cycling, we don’t know; we’re just pleased that the old image of helmet hair and bicycle clips has gone. Nowadays, aesthetics is at the forefront, for you and your home.
