Inconspicuous swinger
This bike interest no layman at first glance. Truth is, that this is very unusual bike, if you give it a chance to know better: it’s witty, adventurous, passionate, loving, faithful (like any bike which has a soul). But this one is a little crazy and wicked also. Isn’t this what we just love on bikes? This quasi reference to dialogue from the Trainspotting movie could explain the origin and composition of the machine. This bike came to our hands from Bernolakovo. Frame is Swiss, or from some Italian part of Switzerland, because of the Italian threads (reverse than normal, so it’s almost impossible to obtain them - Crazy Italians J). Customer wanted to rebuild

Experiment Orbis
The main objective of the Orbis experiment is to support local community activities, mainly those focused on the principles of solidarity and DIY in Trnava. The project is realized by distributing postcards with works of local photographers, graphic designers and artists at selected locations in Trnava. 100% of funds received from the sale of postcards go directly to support local non-profit projects. Money is used for very specific purposes directly related to the implementation of specific projects. No part of the money is used for administrative purposes, or for any other expenses. The implementation of individual projects will be decided by public vote. Therefore Pecobikes

DJ Super de luxe
Hello hello! Long time no response - it's summer. And summer here in Pecobikes means dirty fingers (and sometimes up to elbows) stuck in the cycling since the morning! :-) Thus, we don’t want to have dirty keyboard... (lame excuse) But to the point! You know that we are doing extraordinary bikes, and this blogpost is another proof. This time it was a DIY collaboration with DJ Stereodisco. Boys are not only about nifty fingers on turntables and other electronic toys, but they can make some sweet bikes. (see below album) For those who are interested in the technical matters. Used tires are well-known Schwalbe with white side. (after a long time back in stock!) Rims Kenzo,

Špeciálna mamina
V prvom rade chceme popriať všetkým našim maminám k ich sviatku za všetkú tú trpezlivosť s nami cyklistami. A samozrejme, že má tento príspevok aj hlbší súvis s týmto sviatkom. Chceme Vám predstaviť jednu neobyčajnú maminu. Mamina, ktorá vo svojom "voľnom" čase popri staraní sa o deti zvláda skladať bicykle. A to veru nie hocijaké! Napísala nám toto: "Pred Vianocami som sa rozhodla, že zrenovujem starý manželov favorit. Bol v značnom štádiu rozkladu a keďže som ho zachránila pred likvidáciou pri upratovaní, bolo na čase dať mu druhú šancu. A tak to vlastne začalo… manžel tento pokus odobril a ja som začala hľadať inšpiráciu.

Historians are Cool :)
Spring, welcome. Come as fast as possible :) and please all those who are looking forward to the first heat when they can ride their double-wheeled stallions. Especially excited are those, who bought or built their bikes in winter. As Miki from Kosice. Miki is a historian and that is the probable cause of his bike being retro. He restored his old Liberta, that laid years in the basement. We received delightful email and here we show it to you for inspiration. Miki, good job! “Greetings. This year winter evenings were really long, so I decided to embark a project to rebuild my old Liberta. It was in terrible condition, as a result of it being in cellar for 15 years (cosmetics

Zakliate slnko v prevodníku
Ahojte a hneď aj ospravedlnenie. Za tohtoročnú dlhočiznú zimu môžeme my v Pecobikes. Až teraz sme si uvedomili, že slnko je zakliate v prevodníku tohto bicykla. A to slnko čakalo, kým vám ho všetkým predstavíme a tým padom bude môcť začať jar. Už to máme potvrdené aj od Iľka:) Takže Pecobikes garantuje, že dnešným dňom končí zima, už nebude sneh a keby sa tak nestalo, ako náhradu všekým poškodeným Peco kúpi pivo v sobotu v Partizáne po fesTTka jazde BA-TT!
