Skeppshult
In The Robb Report’s Great Machines Special Issue, they feature Swedish company Skeppshult’s Nature models for men and women. Prices range from US$995 to $1,295:
Many upscale features are standard on Skeppshult bikes: an integrated locking system, spring-loaded rear carrier, chain covers, front and rear fenders, and pedal-generated headlamps.
Vintage cool, eh?
Skeppshult chief designer Kjell Sture says,
“Biking is a great form of transportation that incorporates exercise, pleasure, and perhaps the completion of a few errands.”
The catch: the bikes pictured above are not Skeppshults; they are factory-standard push bikes made in Ningbo and Tianjin. They are also about 1% of the price of a Skeppshult, retail.
Spotted your blog! And I agree: down with corporate exploitation of the ignorant masses living in first-world countries! Haha, nice blog, it’s a relief to see a Singapore-blog that isn’t filled with a step-by-step account of mindless daily activities. Keep it up!
