Hutte 8to8 Renewal

A trip to the recently refurbished Hutte in Osaka last week. Hutte has relocated to their sister store Cycle Life 8To8. Two of Osaka's best stores now in one very cool spot...

Inside, the shop is full of bikes, frames and accessories...

A few custom builds in progress dotted around the shop floor...

And some serious bike porn displays taking centre stage...

Plus a good stock of some very nice frames just waiting to be built up...

And all kinds of cool accessories and clothing...

Including Richard Sachs caps ATMO...

A brilliant, friendly, welcoming, informative and cool shop. If you're in Osaka go to Hutte. If you're not then you can follow them via their Instagram, Facebook, Flickr and Twitter pages.

Re: Products Project, Kobe

All the photos from last Sunday's visit to the Re: Products Project store in Kobe...

The bright, stylish store is the retail side of the Vivalo brand but also stocks bike from Surly, Pashley and more...

There are a few drop dead gorgeous Vivalo's on display among all the other bikes...

And some stunning custom painted frames...

A very good selection of clothing and bags from brands including PEdAL ED...

Some nice Vivalo artwork on the walls...

Great selection of parts...

A wonderful shop. Simply a must visit for any cyclist in Japan. If you're not in Japan, get on a plane and head to Kobe!
