Shades of Grey
Girls and women are the best buyers of colorful gadgets for example this ringer. This young lady wants to be a little bit different just as her bike. Frame comes from us and she gets it as usual for free. Because it was in good condition, all we needed to do was sandblasting and grey paintjob with black colored mudguard. Together with newly strung wheels (torpedo in the back and original

Favorit as a Gift
Some say that today is not possible to find any original gift. Instead of month ticket to the gym or wellness we recommend bike like this one! Powered by fat and bones cooled with wind because ride slowly on such a rocket is absurd. This job was at the last minute. Fortunately we all managed just for the beginning of celebration (with the help of the donors themselves). Base is Favorit F2 special race bike remade to fixed-gear. Unusual is also the paintjob – frame is colored by silver metallic. Only the brake levers remained from original. We matched the crankset Sturmey Archer,

Spring Service
In Pecobikes we love the well cared bikes. Here are some tips how to prepare your two wheel machine for a new season. And do it with smile! Frame – everybody think that it can’t happen to him. “No chance, I have a crack in my frame”. It can happen sometimes and you can only find it under the spotlight. Better check your frame, to prevent breaking right under your feet. In case you find something, don’t get desperate, it’s possible to weld it. Wheels – inflate them well and leave at least a day so you can be sure that you do not have broken valves or defect. The optimum pressure is essential (you can find it written on the side of the tire). If you think

Peco is Eco
Some of us have already learned to do it automatically, but many still haven’t. Thinking about where to throw a waste is not difficult at all. That’s why we bring you this article, about how we, in Pecobikes do it. When the time for bike liquidation come, just put the bike next to the trash is not enough. In this case better bring it to our showroom. There are two options. First is, that we bring the machine new life, or we send it on the other world but by the right way. Today’s blog is about explanation the right way. Almost every known type of bicycle is primarily made up of 4 elements. Metal – aluminum, steel, brass and others. They redeem or collect

The Wedding Gift
Today is full of paradoxes. On the one hand there are people, who have all the time in the world to spend building a carrier, hobbies or other pleasant stuff. On the other hand, people who have existential problems whether financial, medical and psychological or other nature. And maybe this is the reason why classical marriage has weakened position , which is undermining a demographic curve and senescence treads on ”European heels”. Speaking of those “European heels”…This pink beauty comes from Germany and wore the label Achilles. Achilles was a demigod and famous warrior of Greek myths, who was killed in the conquest of Troy. And about his famous heel? We didn’t

Blue is good
test A máme tu ďalší šťavnatý kúsok z našej produkcie. Väčšinou sme ochotní vyhovieť akejkoľvek požiadavke a návrhu, no pri tomto cajgli sme museli spraviť výnimku a dať si jednu požiadavku z našej strany. Majiteľ nám musel vopred sľúbiť, že ho nebude parkovať v okolí trnavského futbalového štadiónu. Farba je krásne belasá (RAL 5024 lesklá), bicykel je teda ako stvorený na letné bezoblačné jazdy, no nenechá sa zahanbiť ani v akomkoľvek inom počasí a ročnom období. Nevšedným prvkom sú riaditká typu "moustache" priamo od anglického výrobcu BLB.

TEDXTRNAVA 2013 or “Do it like to your wife”
Doing right things have been and always shall be cool. Nowadays is modern to do any good act, or selfless help a volunteerism sticker. We in Pecobikes often go voluntary spontaneous, with passion…just like that. For the good of a society, without any expectation of compensation for our work, which many people will not even observe. According to economic theorems is the main goal of a company and economy in general economic growth, generation of the revenue, etc. Step by step people realize, that some jobs are not about payment, and we can’t always rely on government and state that they take care of everything. On the contrary: ”You don’t have it, till you do it yourself” or

BMX for a big guy
BMX stands for “bicycle motocross” and for sure everybody already had a chance to see or eventually even ride this kind of machine. Many of us drove them especially during childhood. Some of us still didn’t grow (and do not even want, because why we should?), and BMX became a part of their hearts, and they still ride this kind of bike competitively or just for pleasure. One of our clients is still a big BMX fan. But he needed something just a little bit bigger and more comfortable. That’s how this machine was born, this piece is combination of adultness and playfulness of BMX. Simply, the BMX for a big men. For a first sight you can recognize a straight fork, and skilled

Park your bike
We decided to extend our offer for one detail within cycling infrastructure, without which the daily use of bicycle as a universal transport vehicle is impossible. And we, Pecobikes, love to make impossible things possible, so we have prepared a few words about this topic. Nowadays we all realize the importance of alternative transport, especially in crowded cities. Bicycle parking racks are inseparable part of life with bike in towns and cities that increases a quality of people’s life. If a cyclist (whether customer or employee) has no place to safely postpone bicycle, man rather use other kind of transportation. That’s why we shouldn’t be afraid to present our opinion and tell

And if is somebody still asking why, here is a simple answer. Fixed-gear bikes are cheaper, lighter, easier to maintain and mostly without brakes (rebel!). So if you still don’t have your own, let’s do it! You won’t regret. Well, enough about general. Here we present another piece, which is not for a new customer, but already for a member of the Peco family. Let’s face it, which of us enthusiasts own only one bike? Only blind can’t notice
