These lovely brass bells have been made in the same small factory for many decades. They have hammer-type strikers, a beautiful tone, and great resonance.
Compared to our Temple brass bells, the Striker bells are a little louder and a few millimeters wider. Unfortunately, they will not work with our Retro bell mount or Spacer bell mount.

These cages are based on an old French design from the '40s or early '50s. In our estimation, they are the best looking bottle cages of all time.
The Retro is a regular one-handed cage; you insert the bottle just like in any other cage, but it holds the bottle very securely due to the spring-like shape. You can spread the cage for an oversized bottle, or squeeze the cage inward for a better fit with (for instance) a metal water bottle.
Retro cages are made by hand from a single length of 3mm stainless steel rod and then electro-polished. If you examine it closely from all angles you'll see that it is, indeed, hand made.
There are two versions of our cage. This is "Type II," with a tab on the back to hold smaller and regular plastic bottles securely. "Type I" has no tab, which is the traditional design and is the better option if you're using taller metal water bottles such as the 27oz Klean Kanteen.More info & order
Carrying enough water on longer rides can be a problem. This is especially true for touring cyclists in the southwest as well as parts of the world where potable water sources are far apart. We designed the Mojave cage to fit 32oz Nalgene bottles, 32 oz insulated Klean Kanteen bottles, and 40oz Klean Kanteen stainless steel bottles.
The mounting tab has 5 holes to allow you to mount it in three positions, higher or lower as best fits your frame. You can also mount it on newer frames with three water bottle screw bosses. Construction is all stainless steel.
One caveat, the Klean Kanteen bottle is pretty tall, about 29cm with the sport top. It may not fit inside the main triangle of smaller frames. The Nalgene is shorter, but doesn't offer a sport top.
Weight is 158 gr. Available in Polished Silver and Smooth Noir.More info & order
The Moderniste Bottle Cage continues to be a favorite for retro and contemporary bikes. The elegant, minimalist design securely holds a plastic or stainless steel water bottle. This beautifully polished cage is made from lightweight, tubular stainless steel, so it is strong and exceptionally lightweight (43g).
The cage can also be squeezed inward or expanded to get the perfect fit for your preferred water bottle.

Half clips give you most of the advantages of a full toe clip, but without straps. They are fantastic for city bikes, touring bikes, or any bike when you want the extra efficiency of toe clips without the bother of straps. Highly recommended.
These are made of stainless steel and are extra deep to fit bulky street shoes and running shoes. Their length is about 65mm from the front of the pedal to the curve in the clip. A pair weighs 83 gr with hardware.
Per pair; hardware included.
A good quality toe clip and strap is ubiquitous on any classic and vintage bike. These are made from stainless steel and are available in two reach sizes (distance they stick out from the pedal): Medium, 58mm and Large, 64mm
Price is per pair. Mounting hardware included.More info & order
"For urban use, commuting, touring, and light off-roading, the Sabot definitely delivers the goods." - GravelBike.com
Many VO staffers like large pedals, so we wanted to produce a high quality large-platform pedal that would be comfortable even when riding in thin soled shoes. We tested them in minimalist running shoes, leather dress shoes, hiking shoes, and even sandals.
Of course this style of pedal is great for urban riding, but we see other uses, too. More and more bike packers, long distance tourists, and adventure cyclists are riding with big BMX style pedals, and these make a more refined alternative.
The two-sided platform is a CNC-cut aluminum extrusion. It has loads of real estate to eliminate pressure points and all - approximately 100mm wide and 100mm long. There are 12 replaceable traction pins on each side of the pedal to offer great grip even when wet. We include rounded pins with the pedals so as not to damage street shoes, but they are easily replaced with more aggressive sharp pins.
Most existing pedals with large platforms use either loose ball bearings or are designed for BMX or downhill riding and use durable, but stiff, bushings. We designed a chromoly spindle that uses three sealed bearings, two inboard and one outboard. This makes for a very smooth pedal; it feels like a high-end road pedal, and the bearings are easy to replace. Weight is 408g per pair. Uses 6mm hex (Allen wrench) as well as flats (15mm pedal wrench) for easy installation and removal.
Platform size: 100mm x 100mm
Pin style: 12 rounded
Bearings: Sealed cartridge
Weight: 408g per pair
Available in Silver and Noir
Includes reflectors, additional rounded pins, and pin wrench.
Compatible with toe clips and straps

The VO Campeur Rack is designed for touring and commuting. It features a fully tubular stainless steel design with an upper deck and lower rail system. The lower rail keeps weight low and allows for easy pannier removal, even with the top platform loaded with a tent or dry bag.
Stainless steel construction with a lovely, high polish finish. It won't rust like painted steel racks or fatigue and crack like some aluminum and powder-coated or painted racks.
Long, lower rail helps gets your pannier further back to eliminate heel clipping.
Straight, upper arms securely mount to your bike's seat stay bosses.
There are a pair of eyelets under the top platform for direct mounting to the fender.
A single rear, threaded eyelet is for a light mount.
The top platform is 10 cm wide and 27 cm long. From the top of the rack to the lowest hole is 36.5cm.
The lower tangs feature four sets of holes to fit most bikes with 26", 650b, 700c, and 27" wheels. Simply trim what you don't need or use the bottommost hole for an easy and quick installation.
Maximum weight is 40 lbs.More info & order
