If I were a used bicycle tire I would want to be handed over to the folks at Velo Re. Based out of London, designers Christian Baumgartner & Bettina Galizzi have been busy lovingly re-purposing bicycle tires into fashionable belts.
As you’d expect Velo Re has quite a following in the cycling community. Many professional racers like to give the belts as gifts to friends and sponsors, using tires they’ve raced on. Indeed, their latest devotee is British Olympic gold medallist Nicole Cooke. Other cyclists simply want mementos of races won or challenging tours that they have completed.
