You already know that we are more than a brand. Correct?Our mission is to make cycling a better experience. Today we are doing jackets and sweaters. We are very proud of our products. They are really awesome and premium quality cycling oriented products. Yup, we are really proud of what we do.But this is only part of the job. We also want to change the way people move around. In the city & within cities. And yes, we think that bicycle is a pretty awesome solution for most of us.
Not only it was a huge event but it was also an historical moment. Indeed, it was the first time cyclists were authorized to cross the tunnels that link Bogotá to Villaviencio. It was an incredible moment. Sorry i can't really describe with words what happened that day.
This is actually why we make videos. We published it 3 days ago on our Facebook page and it was already shared 3.000 times (!!!). Yes, it's indeed a viral video (here in Colombia at least).
PS. Simon translated the video to English & French just for you guys. Be sure to checkout the subtitles on YouTube ;)

Dear Cycling Family,
Asking for the colors of the integrated lights was very interesting! The integrated lights in the jacket and in the sweater were designed to increase lateral visibility. Why ? Because most of accidents involving urban cyclists happen at intersections.
That being said, the lights also allow you to be seen from behind. We still recommend to use additional lights although we are very happy with how it looks).
So the debate was mostly about if the lights were mostly front facing then they should be white and if they were back facing they should be read! The answer is that they are lateral/back facing. The gravity makes them naturally face backward.
So! We are going for RED lights (on both sweater and jacket). Yes, it's different from the picture shown in this update :). The jacket will have an additional front light in the neck.
I want to thank you a lot for your participation and comments:
Big thanks to Jim Hahn, Hamilton Ford, Tim Rezgalla, Adam Andrzej Jaworski, Josh Yarden, Matthias Thubauville, Wilton Alston, Neal Spinler, Jairo Agudelo, Héctor Velásquez, Checo Ramírez, Javier Von Marées Ralph, Evelyne Harper, Rémi Caïol, Frédéric Zoonekyndt, Vesteve, Stéphane Ory for your great participation!
Some of you also mentioned that they would love to get an extra pair of lights (yes, they are compatible between the jacket and the sweater):
THE QUESTION IS: How many of you would be interested in purchasing an extra pair of lights ? (red or white?)
Stay tuned and again, it fills our heart with positive energy to read your comments about our work <3
