RS ACERO CYCLES x OLD HABITS
About a year ago, Reyes (Rs Acero Cycles) and me (Old Habits), get known in Logroño (La RIoja) where we live.
After some days talking about handmade bicycles and the cycling nowadays we talked about making a collaboration between us.
These collabo will be about making a special track bike frame with a custom geometry especially design for criterium races.
Some months later, we begin to work on this project.
First of all, we talk with ATC Drones in order to make a documental to present the bike all over Spain.
After having our parts set, we began looking for sponsors to make this project possible.
After some conversations with some brands we reach: Levis Commuter Bizipoza Knog Essax Saddle Mission Workshop ATC Drones Catlike Pacific and Co Arrueda Factory Five .
After several weeks working with Reyes at the workshop, filming almost daily we´ve test the bike without the final set up. It was awesome.
We sent the frame to Fullcabron, a paint job studio in La Rioja as well. The result was amazing.
The bike shines at the sun, agile, fast and really nervous.
After that, we began to assembly in Bizipoza (San Sebastian).
The frame-set is on sale (info in our mail).
We are going to make a new frame-set with a full carbon fork and really wide tubes. With this bike we are going to race most of Spanish criteriums and the RHC in Barcelona.
