Cylo is a new bicycle brand created by former Nike design director Eric Duvauchelle. Their first release is this minimalist urban bicycle named “CYLO One”, a stylish and functional bike with a refreshing silhouette. Crafted with lightweight materials for easy carrying, the bike features dynamo powered lights, a brake light and a carbon belt drive to keep your pants clean. CYLO One is available in red, black, or white, head over to CYLO for more details.

The Cylo bicycles feature an aluminum frame, chosen for its strength-to-weight ratio, and a carbon belt chain, which promises performance and reliability. They also feature front and rear LED lights built into the frames, which provide 205 lumens of illumination. There is also a brake light, triggered by an accelerometer, that’s designed to prevent Cylo users being hit from behind. The lights are powered by a dynamo, meaning the more you ride the more they shine. They also keep operating for five minutes after you stop pedaling.

Three models of Cylo are being made, with prices ranging from US$1850 to $3150. The entry-level model will be single-speed, while the high-end model will have an 11-speed gearing system. There are other differences between the models but all feature aluminum frames and carbon belt chains.
