Rivendell Bicycle Works is definitely "big in Japan". 😃

Going to look forward to "This is Grant and Yoshikawa-san, head of Nitto, about to film a conversation for Youtube."

I wonder if there's this kind of event anywhere in Europe?
Also, RC cars on bicycle - is it dumb, or just the right amount of weird + nerdy?

As a bike nerd, Tokyo meant visiting the legendary Blue Lug. Often called the world's best bike shop, and I see why. Their gear + Tokyo's chill cycling culture = pure magic. Bikes own the streets. #BlueLug #TokyoCycling #BikeParadise

Visiting Tokyo's Blue Lug: Is It The World's Best Bike Shop?

@capicva love this :) we went cycle touring in japan last year and dropped in on a #Bluelug shop. Amazing! They had all the Rivendell catalogues! 🤣

Nice tour of Brooks' factory.
There are English subtitle for the Japanese parts.

There's also some interesting trivia about their history right there in the next video:

Happy for them having fun.

Good to see where your bike is made.

(Also interesting that Blue Lug seems to have an interest in Bike Friday. The company has been struggling lately, and Blue Lug certainly might be able to generate some attention for them.)

Could there ever be a better image to show the scale on which Japanese bicycle culture appropriates some 'classical American' things?
