Lorenzo Martone, an entrepreneur in the fashion and beauty industry and former partner of designer Marc Jacobs, founded the bicycle line Martone Cycling Co. in 2013. The city bikes are mostly designed in monochrome and even the tires match the color of the frame. The most important feature is the red chain that adorns each bicycle. The details of the equipment are also well thought out. Since we always carry a bag or groceries with us, especially on the way across the city, all bikes, with a low mount, are equipped with a basket. Martone's goal is to design bikes that make a fashion statement and it-piece, but are also very comfortable to ride.
