Velovision

Revista Velovision número 33. Marzo 2009

En Plegabike nos gusta estar al día y por eso te ofrecemos las mejores revistas para ver tecnología, últimas novedades y porque no decirlo, cosas inimaginables.

Y nuestra preferida es la revista inglesa Velovision, editada por nuestro amigo Peter Eland desde York, Inglaterra. Una revista donde hemos descubierto un montón de accesorios que luego hemos incorporado en nuestro catálogo, muchas bicicletas plegables, de carga o reclinadas y un montón de historias del mundo de la bicicleta pero desde su vertiente más urbana, alejándose del ciclismo de carretera y del ciclismo de montaña, que es donde se focalizan la mayoría de revistas actuales.

Son revistas que no caducan, simplemente enseñan bicicletas atemporales y dan ideas y visiones diferentes al uso de la bicicleta. Si sois unos buenos Plegabikers, debéis leer Velovision, la revista de los Velovisionarios.

Os recomendamos todos los números. Son indispensables y unas joyas para cualquier amante de la bicicleta.
