STIJN CYCLES MINI VELO 'PEG': MEET THE MAN WHO DESIGNED IT! / ステインサイクルズレビュー: 日本語字幕あり！

Is the first true road bike version of a mini velo bicycle? Join me as I ride the bike and meet then man who not only owns the brand but designed it too, Stijn Deferm from Belgium, who now calls Taiwan home. Former 3 times Belgian national downhill champion, much sought after bike designer, Stijn decided to create a mini velo for himself, and in the process created a bike that has garnered a cult following, especially in Japan.
I received NO payment in any way for this video... apart from a couple of beers ;-)

Good video. Neat bike. Cool video. Good production values - especially the audio. Well done

[@Wbs70]

such a good project and nice guy

[@ld5969]

Awesome video. Thanks for introducing us to this person. Loved the design and the ethos behind it

[@crankpunkrides5434]

Thank you LD, glad you enjoyed it, and more coming soon!

[@amateurambience]

very cool bike! thanks for sharing my friend! i like the way he said" I like the feeling when everytime I refuse!"

[@crankpunkrides5434]

Welcome!

[@davidhunternyc1]

OMG! Stunning bikes!

[@atsund]

Woohoo. I didn’t think about BMX parts at all for some reason. I guess I thought the category has enough of its own bits. Great vid, cheers

[@crankpunkrides5434]

Glad you enjoyed it ;-)

[@ReaganHasal]

Nice bike sir!!!

[@deskelly9313]

Cool guy and bikes. I've been wanting one for a while but they basically don't exist in New Zealand. Anyone know if it would be possible to build up a lightweight, flat-bar, geared mini-velo using a bmx frame? Budget for this is limited and I'm happy to shop at Aliexpress for carbon fibre parts.

Have a 20inch cheap second hand foldable. Love the riding position. Interested in the Giant Idiom but no longer sold new in Taiwan. Gonna go check these out tomorrow at the Taipei Cycling expo

[@crankpunkrides5434]

I'll be there Saturday at the Bicycle Club booth, 4th floor entrance, come say hi if you're around ;-)

[@chrispark5795]

What brand and size tyres are on the yellow bike? As the tyres on the purple one seem wider.

[@christophreichert4327]

🤘❤️

[@sharkmentality9717]

At 6'4" I wanted a large frame minivelo. I also wanted to ride buses and trains. Friend in Maine helped design a paratrooper with 20" wheels.

[@kingjack8342]

hi, what brand and model of helmet STIJN DEFERME wearing?

[@calebcaleb4704]

Nice video...proud peg owner

[@crankpunkrides5434]

Glad you like it, thanks! And yes, cracking bike ;-)

[@captainmarkmorgan5044]

How would I order and have shipped to Singapore?

[@raulbarroga6022]

im from the philippines, how can i buy such bike?

[@user-sf5tz3hf6h]

請問哪裡有賣。

[@kidShibuya]

The question I have is, why not just get a Tyrell?

[@twillyspanksyourcakes]

I've just googled what that bike is and it looks horrible. Don't ever mention that bike ever again

[@greglazaro4179]

Where can I buy that mini velo?

[@davidhunternyc1]

I live in NYC. I sent Stijn Cycles a message wondering if he would build a bike for me. I wonder if he builds custom commissions. Also, how much does Stijn bikes weigh? .... I know. I'm a weight weenie.

[@crankpunkrides5434]

Did he reply yet?

[@davidhunternyc1]

@@crankpunkrides5434 No, I'm still waiting. I sent the message this morning. I hope he's still building bikes. Not sure if he is.

[@crankpunkrides5434]

If he's not in touch by tomorrow let me know @@davidhunternyc1

[@Wolfloid]

There is nothing like it, he says. However, the Moulton variants, Bike Friday, the Pacific Reach, and now the Vello bike are all similar in many ways. And they all fold or separate!

[@crankpunkrides5434]

Thanks for your comment Robert, I'll have to see if I can get one of those for a test ;-)

[@simianjools]

A true dude. But Re. the DNA, why no mention of Moulton?

[@crankpunkrides5434]

Stijn's choice, focus on the new and not the old!
