Bicycle shorts, clunky helmets, and rain ponchos. Cycling does not often
conjure up the most fashionable of images.
Luckily, Opus
Bikes Nuovella model is probably the furthest thing from a mountain
or racing bike, and as close as we are going to get to Chanels
wheels. This stylish, retro-looking bicycle boasts features like
Shimano brakes and internal gears that change incredibly smoothly, as
well as great design.
We are imagining ourselves doing good for the environment by forgoing
the car and biking through Vancouver on a sunny day while wearing a
nautical striped sweater.
Now that’s life in the bike lane.Alexandra Suhner Isenberg
