Cool Hipster Bikes with a Noble Vision Statement

“…At Vélosophy we bring great urban commuters to biking citizens around the globe, at the same time as we co-operate with UNICEF to provide schoolgirls in Ghana with bicycles. For every Vélosophy we sell we donate another bicycle to a young girl – bringing her hope of a brighter future.”

Don’t you just love when you see a vision statement like this?

The Velosophy company works with a social justice motto in mind. The Swedish bicycle maker launched last month in three large Scandinavian cities: Stockholm, Gothenburg, and Malmö. If you have some extra money to spend and want to contribute to making a bright day for a Ghanaian girl, you can check the online store. Look up around the aluminium minimalist bikes in fluorescent colors intended for the city commuter, starting at €770 (around $800).

Once you are there, do not miss the first airbag for bicycles hidden in a cool sleeveless parka. Bicycle safety and helmet use are a hot topic – what do you think?
