I'm very excited to share with you that I've teamed up with Urban Bike Store to introduce to you a Finnish design icon that only recently arrived to Switzerland: Jopo. There'll be a giveaway for you in this post and more surprise posts to come all summer!
The name Jopo comes from “jokaisen polkupyörä”, which translates into “everyman’s bicycle”, meaning that a Jopo bike can be adjusted to all shapes and sizes. The shiny white Jopo has been love at first sight to me and unlike any other one I owned before, it has foot brakes and no gear! I thought it would take some time to get used to this and was a little concered to go downhill but the foot brake is actually very easy once you get the hang of it.
The Carrie basket from Design House Stockholm is the perfect addition to the Jopo. Its designer Marie-Louise Gustafsson selected the ornate material as it reminded her of the Swedish crochet tablecloths on which her grandmother used to serve afternoon tea.
The original hand-painted cupcake bell by Annie Legroulx of DringDring is definitely the icing on the cake! Want to have one for your bike? I'm giving away one cupcake bell. All you have to do is leave a comment with your name and email address so I can contact you in case you win.
The giveaway is open worldwide and ends on Sunday, July 10.
I'd also appreciate it if you liked our new Styleseeking Zurich fan page on Facebook and Urban Bike Store's fan page for being so kind and giving away this pretty bike bell!
