Bertelli: Biciclette Assemblate
Two things. First, these bicycles are beautiful. Coming from an Italian shop, I’m not surprised that the craftsmanship and integrity to materials is so respectful to the aesthetic and function of the final product. I’m still not sold on having no brakes, but Bertelli manages to include them in some of his projects without hurting the minimalism. Leather, wood, recycled vintage parts—awesome.
Secondly, where the hell are these shops in Italy? So many famous Italian designers, artists, architects, etc. but none in plain sight. Stupid!

Love these bikes. Of course Lawrence showed me them a few months back. That kid finds all the good stuff. Interesting posts. Keep it up! L8tr.
