  • New bikes from Biomega

    New bikes from Biomega

    I usually like the work of Ross Lovegrove, or at the very least I usually find his sculptural designs interesting. The clean, organic forms of his product and furniture designs are often pretty clever and original. That is why I was a bit underwhelmed when I saw his first bicycle design for Biomega, the Bamboo.…

  • Biomega Bamboo in Milan

    I am home in Greenville right now, but I really wish I were in Milan for design week. Around the time of Salone Di Mobile and Euroluce, the Italian city is the place to be for anyone with an interest in design. Though the Salone is a furniture fair, at least a few bikes seem…

  • Taipei Cycle Show Part 2…

    Note from James: This is Eric’s 3rd and final guest post about Taipei Cycle 2009. I greatly appreciate his willingness to share his thoughts and observations from the show with all of you over the last few days. Now on to Eric’s post: The bicycles that seemed to have the most variety were what I…

  • A carbon fiber Biomega

    Over the weekend, Jens Martin Skibsted of Biomega sent me a few pictures of the company’s booth at the recent Taipei Cycle show. The most notable picture that I want to pass along is this carbon fiber version of the Mark Newson designed bike, which they just previewed at the show. I have mentioned before…

  • Glow in the dark Puma

    By now, you have probably already seen the glow in the dark Puma Urban Mobility bike made by Biomega. Ron sent me a link to this slamxhype post a couple days ago, but I didn’t get a chance to post it. Since then, I have noticed that it is getting a lot of coverage on…

  • Cube urban bike concept

    I hope everyone had a great New Year. It certainly felt like January here in Greenville this morning. I guess I am a fair weather bike commuter because I usually just drive to work on cold days. This morning though, I rode despite temps in the 20s. By the time I got to work, my…

  • Finally, bikes for sale in DWR

    Look what I saw this morning when I opened my latest Design Within Reach catalog; Biomega bicycles for sale on the first two pages. Not that I was surprised. I mentioned not long ago that the DWR store in Dallas had a discussion about transportation-oriented bikes. Biomega bikes were the focus of that discussion, so…

  • I’m back

    I thought that I would get a chance to post from the road last week, but it just wasn’t in the cards. I was way to busy with work. I happened to be in Dallas, Texas on business all week, and I hoped that I would have a chance to swing by a new bike…

  • Hey, who is that dude on the glowing bike?

    Hey, who is that dude on the glowing bike?

    I couldn’t resist posting this picture of mountain bike pioneer Gary Fisher riding a glow in the dark Biomega MN02. The bike, designed by well known London based designer Marc Newson, is the only one I know of with a glow in the dark frame… a feature that I think is a great idea. To…
