App Description

FEATURED ON APPLE'S NEW AND NOTEWORTHY

IPAD APP OF THE WEEK.

"As mesmerisingly beautiful an iPad app as you could ever hope to see. Full of innovative but intuitive ways to navigate, this is like the most beautiful, informative and deliciously lovely guide to bicycle design as you can imagine. And if you think that bicycles are a rather humble, banal and uninteresting field of industrial design this will make you think again. Stunning."

Stephen Fry
