Velo—2nd Gear, published by Gestalten, explores today’s contemporary bicycle culture and different bicycle scenes with wonderful photos and reveals their histories, relationships, and insightful details. Alongside its presentation of especially attractive and unusual bicycles, the book documents how riders’ accessories and styles vary just as widely as the bikes’ tires and other equipment. It features coveted manufacturers, specialized boutiques, and historical tours and explains how each scene cultivates its own distinct codes through the choice of certain jerseys, caps, or bags.
