Velorbis at Copenhagen Fashion Week

Velorbis was delighted to take part in Copenhagen Fashion Week this year. During the week Veorbis showcased their new fashion accessory range of luxury leather bags which were extremely well received by the fashionistas. In particular, the leather travel bag grabbed the limelight and made it onto the catwalk at the Copenhagen International Fashion Fair (CIFF) trend show SS12, which took place as the main event during Copenhagen Fashion Week.
  





To coincide with the launch of the new Velorbis fashion accessory range, Velorbis have created a dedicated website - take a look and download the latest catalogue: www.velorbisfashion.com

The world’s strongest bicycle basket by Velorbis!


We are delighted to unveil to you the world’s strongest basket that can carry up to 15kgs/33lbs, based on our new invention – the unique FrameFix mounting bracket (patent pending). FrameFix provides the inner core strength that enables all bicycle baskets to maximise their load capacity without compromising steering ability and balance.

The Velorbis team started a design mission a while ago – studying stylish female Copenhagen cyclists and listening to their issues and needs. We found that cyclists wanted versatile and stabile storage on two wheels so they could safely carry a couple of shopping bags and a handbag and be able to chat on their mobile phones, for example – and look good at the same time.


We also found that current baskets on the market are often too small and are fitted to the handlebars on bicycles, which affects the steering and balance when the basket is full and when turning. Our design team therefore rethought the whole mounting system. Like the popular front carriers on Velorbis gents bicycles, our FrameFix bracket invention attaches to the head tube instead of the handlebars, so that the accompanying basket remains in a fixed position whenever elegantly manoeuvring through traffic, providing extra strength and stability when cycling.

Now you can multi-task on two wheels – such as carrying extra shopping bags, a pet dog, gifts, and flowers, etc. – and look super-stylish, of course.

When design matters

Velorbis was born from the hunt for a top quality sit-up-and-beg Dutch style bicycle with a stylish and iconic design aesthetic that reflected the elements of world-renowned Danish design and cool Copenhagen cycling culture. They couldn’t find what they were looking for in the bicycle industry so decided to design their own. The rest is history...
Velorbis supports global urban sustainability and green transportation initiatives and its aim is to encourage as many people as possible to adopt a stylish two-wheeled approach.




Velorbis has an exclusive concept store in Copenhagen, Denmark to cater for its growing popularity in the Scandinavian market and plans to extend its network of concept stores in other major European cities in the near future.

Velorbis is currently expanding it's worldwide retail base and is focusing on primary markets such as Europe, North America and Asia Pacific.
