Nice shot this brand new handlebar tape, Cinelli Mike Giant's quality Logo Volée ribbon.

Fìrst of all, the TYPE.

For Cinelli Art Program, Mike Giant creates eleven different sets of types, each one with its own style and kerning, each one composing your lovebrand, in a theory of systems for a coherent storytelling.

Mike Giant's recalled codes and influences merge in a unique strip and ribbon, displaying a universe of tatooing, graffiti, graphic novel, comics and illustration to refresh your bicycle style and cast an artistic tone on your handlebar: the same as soundtrack does with movies, this typed tape adds a new character to your machine.

And, the TAPE. Mike Giant Logo volée ribbon.

Cinelli volée ribbon is second to none in terms of extreme protection and comfort coupled with a renewed texture and grip quality, ideal on the road and on gravel or white roads terrain. Easy to install, with great durability in time.

Winged C plugs finish the set.

Artist info

In the late 2000s, with increasing excitement over the fixed-gear movement, and in particular over Cinelli’s collaborations and friendship’s with MASH and RVCA, Cinelli President Antonio Colombo found himself traveling to California more and more frequently and socializing in the new scene created around these bicycles. On one of these trips in 2008 he met Mike Giant, already a world-renowned tattoo artist working more and more in illustration. As well as being an avid everyday rider, Mike had an extremely strong interest in fixed gear bikes, their subversive politics, and the kids riding them.

In Antonio Colombo he found not only an eager and willing patron for his art (Giant would have a show at the Colombo’s Milanese gallery in February 2010), but also a vehicle for bringing his drawings into explicit contact with the fixed-gear movement on a global level.
