Nakazaki Eights, Osaka

A trip to Osaka last Friday to visit the wonderful Nakazaki Eights store located just north of Umeda. A very cool and friendly shop set in an old converted town house...

Outside the shop are a few examples of their custom work on a couple of Cycroc mini-velos...

And a really nicely done porteur transformation on a Rockbikes Pride...

Inside there are more bikes on display, including another Cycroc mini...

Upstairs there is a tatami room being used as a showroom for the Rockbikes range...

And a parking space for shop manager Kazuki-san's ultra cool custom Rockbike...

All around the shop there are fun and funky displays of parts and accessories...

A really friendly, welcoming shop selling some cool kit and doing some interesting custom builds. Most definitely worth a visit for any cyclist who finds themselves in Osaka. You can follow Nakazaki Eights via their Facebook, Twitter and Instagram pages.

City Heat

Cityscape.

It was 34C in Nara yesterday. A good time to head out to Osaka where it was only 32C and chill out...

Sky Building

Fuck Tokyo.

City Hall. 

Bridge.

We dropped into Hutte and took a stack of photos. They'll be up here in the week.

Master Pista, Osaka

Last week, whilst out in Osaka, we dropped into the fun and funky Master Pista in Umeda...

For a small store there is always lots of things to check out. Some really cool bicycle memorabilia dotted around the place...

Along with some very funky custom bikes and builds in progress....

Outside the shop was possibly the funkiest fixie in town, an old Allsop Softride frame converted to fixed gear, just because they can...

We love Master Pista, a fun, funky and very friendly shop. Check it out when you find yourself in town. You can also follow the shop on Twitter and Instagram.

Circle Geek, Osaka

We dropped into the ultra cool Circle Geek in Umeda, Osaka yesterday...

A small but very well stocked BMX shop...

With some unique parts and accessories...

And some very cool clothing like this "Alice Coltrane in wonderland" t-shirt...

A fun, funky and very friendly store, well worth checking out. Keep up to date with the store's cool happenings via their Twitter feed.
