The Full Story
About
Since I was a child, bicycles have always been a part of my life. I rode them to school, to visit friends, to get to sports, always exploring, always moving.
During my teenage years, it became all about BMX: stunts, tricks, and the freedom that came with mastering the bike.
When I moved to Miami in 2013, cycling once again became my grounding ritual. It helped me unwind and clear my mind from the intense, demanding work of being a Regional Director. Some of my best ideas came to me during those rides—especially in the last few years, when creativity felt especially alive. I began thinking about how I could bring my lifelong passion for bicycles into my professional world.
I’ve always been drawn to rare, unique things, designs that stand out from what’s commonly seen. The stretch cruiser style captivated me for that very reason: the attention to detail, the themes, the lifestyle behind it. That aesthetic resonated deeply with my background in luxury design furniture, where craftsmanship and experience matter just as much as function. In these bikes, I saw more than transportation; I saw art.
With electric assistance making cycling even more practical and enjoyable, the idea became clear: to merge my design sensibility with my passion for riding and create something truly personal, functional, and expressive.
Cycling through Miami—whether from Little Havana to Key Biscayne, through Downtown, Wynwood, or across the Venetian Causeway to Miami Beach—is one of the most incredible ways to experience the city. Especially now that Miami has become more bike-friendly, moving at a slow, relaxed pace connects you to the surroundings in a unique way.
This style is all about being low ’n’ slow. No noisy motor. Just the comfort of a laid-back riding position, the support of electric pedal assist, and the feeling of freedom that lifts your spirit and moves you forward in life.
