FROM KRES CYCLES - Introducing the KRES STRADA

Tweet

Here at KRES we love our single speed bikes for many reasons. You cant go past the aesthetic  simplicity of a single speed along with its practical application and given the response we received for the KRES PISTA we feel justified in having concentrated our efforts on producing this bike. Having said that though we had always intended on producing a road bike inspired partly by the classic steel racing bikes of yesteryear. We hope we have honoured that tradition even in part with the KRES STRADA.

More info and pictures soon!

La Course en Tete

If you are in to cycle racing and especially the racing of yesteryear then this movie is a must see.  The movie is a bio on the great Eddie Merckx and was made by French filmaker Joel Santoni in 1973. The title refers to his style of riding ( always at the head of the pack ). The movie was shot over the course of one year and although it received critical acclaim it was quickly forgotten about.
It is now available on DVD.
Original movie poster below.

For a preview of the documentary check out this youtube video. But definetely go and buy the DVD as it comes with another great cycling documentary of the time "The Greatest Show on Earth " focusing on the Giro d'Italia of 1974.
