Bike Bodygear Jewellery
Bike Bodygear makes an exclusive line
of the hottest looking bike jewellery and leather accessories
designed for sports and everyday activities. These products
are made to endure extreme use and abuse. The jewellry is partially
constructed from small bicycle components.
I have seen many types of bike-related jewellery
in the past, but not one has attracted me as much as the range
from bike bodygear. I chanced across this website while searching
for links to include in bikesutra. At once, I was captivated
by the seemimgly good workmanship of their products, as is evident
from the individual product photographs on their website.
It was this interest that made me contact Cat
from bike bodygear to enquire about their jewellery. I received
a sample of the chain bracelet in the mail not long after and
proceeded, with glee and excitement, to open the pack. The wait
was not a disappointment.
Chunky is the first word I would use to describe
the bracelet....and solid. Wrapped around my wrist, it looked
right at home. Kind of "harley davidson-ish" I guess,
but with slightly more appeal. The ring of chains wrapped around
my wrist comfortably, causing no discomfort or itchiness like
some other jewellery I had come across in the past. The belt
buckle was easy to fasten and detatch,which is important expecially
if you are in a hurry to take it off the jump into a shower
after a long ride.
One comment I would make, though, is that I
wish the chains links could have Shimano HG or SACHS imprinted
on them. No doubt, in the current form it looks great and functions
well, but I personally thought that such an imprint would really
make the product look more authentic! No harm though, I throughly
enjoy wearing this bracelet everywhere I go...and yes, the bracelet
does get its fair share of stares when I hop down to the local
shopping mall or to the lbs, with the frequently question being
"where can I get one"?
Bike bodygear can be found at at
this link or you can contact Charlotte directly thru email
at cak@bike-bodygear.com
. Check out the rest of their products....however, with great
quality like this, I'm sure that their other products will attract
much interest as well.
