Kalkhoff becomes an alkhof


Oh the problems of photographing tubes. This Kalkhoff vintage bicycle logo has become a bit less of an obvious brand.

Vintage Purple Puch Bicycle

Well maybe not very purple, maybe more maroon.

Only when I was resizing these to post did I notice that this particular model seems to have something called 'Weinmann Semi Automatic' brakes? Or perhaps just the cable adjustment is semi automatic, either way, it does not seem to be something that has caught on. A little light googling suggests because it leads to uneven brake usage over time, and therefore crashing! Good luck to this rider then.

Here it is, in it's up till now un-crashed state.

BKC Bicycle Company

Not the best logo ever, but I think it's improving with life in the wild.

Many Monarks make a Monark Museum

Ok so this might not quite be a Monark museum yet, but the never-ending fascination with vintage Monark bicycles does persist, especially with examples like this just sitting round every corner.
Svenskt kvalitetsfabrikat is a label you see on quite a few of the older bikes in Sweden, usually accompanied by this awesome logo!



I even remembered to take a general picture of the bike!

NSU bike logo


The Safari is a bit less punctual than usual at the moment, and for that, I am sorry.

Old, gold, Puch bicycle


I thought I'd give the spinning bar effect another go, so here's a rotating Puch for you. It turned out quite confusing to look at.

SCA is keeping you clean

Every bike here in Lund is equipped with two full size fenders/mudguards (depending where you're from in the world). Perfectly sensible, and makes people more willing to ride whatever the weather. Especially useful when everything gets covered in snow a lot!

A DBS gets moving

Here's something a little different. Well a nice DBS logo to start with.

But sometimes it's difficult to photograph a logo on a round tube, so here's something new I thought I'd try. A little animated spin of the tube! It's an animated gif, so your mileage may vary depending on browser what-nots and computer flim-flams. Give it a click anyway.

Ironically the bike in real life is not moving. New saddle time.
